Other weapons such as hammers and bowling balls are also available to use. The game's levels are Downtown Springfield, Krustyland, Springfield Discount Cemetery, Moe's Tavern, Springfield Gorge, Dreamland, the Channel 6 studio, and the Power Plant.

Between levels, the player can compete against the other characters in two mini-games to be first to complete a task (inflating a balloon and waking up their character).Show more

The Simpsons Arcade Game I used to play a lot at a local Chuck E. Cheese growing up. I also had the now delisted Xbox 360 port. Which I deeply enjoyed playing at the time. This was during the 90s when Konami was on a roll with licensed games. This was the original Simpsons game. Somehow it still holds up amazingly well. Also among the three best Simpsons games ever made. The soundtrack as well as the sound effects truly amazing. There's a few mini games that's a bit repetitive to a degree. You can play as most of the Simpsons family. There's a good variety within the stages. I do think a newer port of this Simpsons game would sell very well. There's a lot of people that never played the original Arcade classic. This is up there with their Arcade TMNT games respectively.

I remember playing this on DOS. Before I could even play, a Password needed to be inputted. I didn’t know the Password so I would try numerous times until I got the right one. Great Memories.

Played it on the XBox 360-but it was never given backwards compatibility. May be a tough license to get as The Simpson's are now Disney IP. Good luck GoG and I hope you can bring this great game here.

Zero Gunner 2
Zero Gunner 2In the near future, scientists working for the powerful Asian conglomerate known as Igem have discovered a new energy source. Refusing to share their technique with the rest of the world, Igem eventually developed a weather control machine named ONI, which they intend to use for the purpose of global domination. A squadron of ace helicopter pilots, called Zero Gunner, is assembled to destroy ONI - but Igem fights back with everything they've got... Zero Gunner 2 is a top-down shooter. All backdrops and vehicles in this game are modelled in 3D, though the gameplay mostly follows the conventions of 2D shooters. Since your craft is a helicopter, a "target and spin" feature has been added, whereby you can both rotate your craft to attack an enemy more efficiently, or alternatively lock on a particular point in space and rotate around it while still firing. These actions are not automatically executed, and are controlled by the player; in order to succeed, mastering this feature is imperative. The usual power-ups and boss enemy battles are included in the game, along with a selection of helicopters to choose from.
