Play Simpsons, The - Night of the Living Treehouse of Horror (USA, Europe) Online

Night of the Living Treehouse of Horror came out for the Game Boy Color in 2001, developed by Software Creations and published by THQ. It was one of those licensed games that felt right at home on the handheld, with chunky sprites and a familiar cast that fit the small screen. The game adapts three classic Treehouse of Horror segments into a side scrolling platformer, each with its own visual style and enemies.

You control Bart, Homer, or Lisa depending on the stage, switching between them as you move through themed levels. Your goal is to survive each horror parody, from fighting aliens in space to escaping a prehistoric Springfield. The gameplay involves running, jumping, and using character specific weapons like Bart's slingshot or Lisa's saxophone blasts. You explore screen by screen, defeat enemies, and occasionally solve simple puzzles to progress. The pacing is brisk, though some sections feel repetitive, and the difficulty can spike unexpectedly. It feels like a condensed, interactive version of the show's Halloween specials, complete with its oddball humor and occasional frustration.
