The Simpsons Wrestling

Overview

The Simpsons Wrestling is a comedic professional wrestling style game starring the characters from the animated television show. Centered around exaggerated brawls between the cast of characters, the game featured the same voice talent heard in the series.

Characters

• Homer Simpson
• Marge Simpson
• Bart Simpson
• Lisa Simpson
• Mr. Burns and Waylon Smithers - Smithers throws radioactive rods from the side of the ring at the enemy, while Mr. Burns fights.
• Kang and Kodos - These are the "boss" characters, that must be fought at the end of the game.
• Apu Nahasapeemapetilon - Throws slushies as their ranged attack.
• Itchy and Scratchy - Instead of building their TAUNT meter, have an ANVIL meter, which, when full, will drop an anvil on the enemy.
• Groundskeeper Willie
• Barney Gumble
• Moe the Bartender
• Professor Frink
• Bumblebee Man
• Krusty the Clown
• Ned Flanders - Can 'resurrect' once upon defeat.

Gameplay Mechanics

When the player fills up their TAUNT meter, which is done by collecting various letters from around the ring, then they will become invincible for a certain amount of time. Which usually meant that during this time, the match could be one due to some issues about the length of this. However, when playing as Ned Flanders, you can play, and God will give you a hand to make sure that your opponent takes a lot of damage, which makes this character very hard to unlock.

Reception

Brought out in 2001, this game was mostly given bad reviews, for its bad graphics, audio design, and overly simplistic gameplay.
