Virtual Bart

Virtual Bart (1994)

by Sculptured Software, Acclaim Entertainment
Genres:Platform, Puzzle
Themes:Action, Comedy, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player
Story:Bart's reality goes virtual when he is strapped into Martin Prince's Virtual Reality experiment at the elementary school science fair. Each virtual reality program represents a stage in the game that Bart must play through in order to escape the machine before the programs crash. The game consists of three side-scrolling platform stages and three stages that take place from a rear view. Bart assumes the roles of a pig, dinosaur, and baby for the platform stages. He tosses tomatoes and eggs, slides down a water slide, and drives a motorcycle in a post-apocalyptic Springfield for the three remaining stages. They are all accessed by chance via a wheel-of-misfortune.Show more

Virtual Bart was one of many 90's games to attempt virtual reality concept. It's essentially a spiritual successor to Bart's Nightmare. Just like that Bart game, you play as Bart in a few mini games. Unlike Bart's Nightmare, you don't have to walk repeatedly for something to happen. Bart's in an VR machine that acts like a wheel that selects stuff. You even get or lose extra lifes as well. All the mini games are notably different from each other. Most of them are slightly different platformer mini games. Dino Bart being my favorite among those. The other mini games are vastly different. You have a post apocalypse mini game similar to Mad Max with Road Rash. You get a water slide mini game that's surprisingly creative. Some of the most fun game overs I ever seen in an game. Of course, we gotta talk about the famous throwing tomatoes/eggs mini game. This is indirectly you playing Golf. You have to line up your shot similar to that sport. This had a deep learning curve. I never forget the mess up game over for this mini game. Homer is eating corn dogs then freaks out over an corn dog looking like Bart. Before he eats it more like Treehouse of Horror humor. This is very likely the easiest Acclaim Simpsons game to get into. You also get my favorite mode, Practice Mode. You can play as any mini game without worrying about any game overs. I wish Bart's Nightmare had that!!! Virtual Bart does differ from SNES and Genesis versions in a few areas. For the most part the same exact game.
Those games also need your vote!
