The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) | comment |
The Simpsons: Hit & Run is a 2003 Wide-Open Sandbox game by Radical Entertainment in the vein of the Grand Theft Auto series, but with less firepower and more kicking. Five characters from the series are played in the seven-level long story mode (In order: Homer, Bart, Lisa, Marge, Apu, Bart again and then Homer again), which initially starts off mundane with Homer's antics on his way to work, but shifts into a conspiracy involving the kidnapping of Bart, strange floating wasp cameras, and a strange new brand of cola. And it gets even stranger from there...The game is notably filled to the brim with references to past episodes, as well as the vehicles contained within. The developers of this game sure did their homework on The Simpsons, to the point that Continuity Porn and Easter Eggs are around every turn. Heck, it has so many, we made a page to collate them all!Hit & Run is commonly regarded as the best Simpsons tie-in game, and it's still enjoyed by the fandom to this day. The PC version also has an active modding scene, with numerous game mods adding in content like online multiplayer, more cars, the maps from The Simpsons: Road Rage, a fully connected map, new story campaigns, and more. | |

Unwinnable by Design: The One-Hit Kill cheat code makes car destruction objectives a breeze, but Hit & Collect objectives become unwinnable as destroyed cars cannot drop any items. Follow objectives are still completable but become much harder as you need to be extra careful not to hit the car you're chasing. | |

Breaking the Fourth Wall | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_1e7487cd | comment |
Breaking the Fourth Wall: Everyone in the game is more meta than usual, the characters constantly reference video game-related tropes, such as cheat codes and memory cards, and even one of the civilian quotes mentions them being "generic characters" in a game. At various points, characters refer to game logic they really shouldn't be aware of: Bart is the Exposition Fairy during the tutorial mission and subsequent tutorial popups in the first level and complains about having to narrate them. Homer, when someone overtakes him in a race: "He used a cheat code!" Bart, when suffering a minor crash: "I hope that didn't break my memory card!" Oddly, Marge, despite not being much of a gamer, also has some meta dialogue, such as when entering or getting out of her car ("Where to next, video game?"), or when crashing ("Oof, polygons!"). The ending, with Kang and Kodos tempting fate by saying that they won't have to sit through the credits, then commenting on the credits once they roll. | |

Chekhov's Boomerang | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_21f3e32e | comment |
Chekhov's Boomerang: Buzz Cola. It appears in Level 1 in the first cutscene of the game and the tutorial mission where Homer has to get some food from the Kwik-E-Mart. It shows up again in Levels 3 and 4, as when Bart is found, where he occasionally mentions Buzz Cola while otherwise mumbling gibberish. Marge then uses it in Level 4 to jog Bart's memory and return him to normal, whereupon Bart tells Marge that Buzz Cola has been spiked with a mind-control agent. Kang and Kodos intend to spike Springfield's water supply with Buzz Cola and raise the undead to invade Springfield. | |

Chekhov's Gun | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The crop circles are revealed by Grampa in Level 4 to be in the same shape as the Buzz Cola logonote "A planet with a TV antenna coming out of it", which Marge realises she can use to restore Bart's memory. The wasp cameras are revealed to be part of Kang and Kodos's plot for their TV show, Foolish Earthlings. Level 1's first proper mission, "S-M-R-T", is to race Principal Skinner to the school so Homer can give Lisa her science project. The school becomes very important in Level 7. In the playground, Kang and Kodos's Flying Saucer is located there, and several times you have to drive to it from the power plant to deposit toxic waste into it via tractor beam to destroy the saucer. | |

The zombies hosting the races in Level 7 don't even bother counting, and simply moan "Brains". | |

Palette Swap: The Bonestorm Truck and Cube Van are slightly modified versions of the Duff Truck from Level 1. The main differences that separate the two from the Duff Truck are different textures, the door at the back being open instead of closed and both being less durable overall. | |

Extremely Short Timespan | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_281de59f | comment |
Extremely Short Timespan: The date on the Spinning Papers that accompany the loading screens are always one day later than the last, suggesting the game takes place over a single week (with the final level, appropriately enough, on October 31st). Not as short as some examples, but still fairly short. If it weren't for these, then the entire game would appear to take place across a single day, as the first level starts around midday with the following levels gradually transitioning to nighttime. A few more hints at the short timespan exist, such as the burning Popsicle Stick Skyscraper in Level 2 being reduced to rubble in Level 5, with the same fire trucks still attending it. | |

Easter Egg | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: By looking around the various levels, various characters can be found that the player character can interact with to get bonus dialogue. The list consists of: Lisa, Ralph, Willie, Skinner, Moe, Patty, Apu, Sea Captain and Squeaky-Voiced Teen. Standing on the roof of a moving car will make the player character pretend to surf on it as if to keep balance. During the Level 7 mission "Alien "Auto" Topsy: Part 1", picking up the nuclear waste with a vehicle that Homer is a passenger in (like Bart's Ferrini or Mr. Burns' Limo) and stopping will result in Homer rocking out to the music by repeatedly playing his "goal complete" animation. You can get busted if you're out of your car and you get knocked over by Chief Wiggum's police car in the few missions where he's present as an obstacle to avoid, race or follow, though you don't pay the 50 coins in that case. What makes this an Easter Egg is that this happening is rare since the player would usually be in a car at these points in the game. All levels have a secret bonus vehicle that can't be called in from the phonebooth (unless the "Unlock All Cars" cheat is activated): Level 1 has the Speed Rocket, found in the wealthy district, parked in front of a gate opposite Chester Lampwick's Mansion of Solid Gold. Level 2 has the Monorail Car, found in the downtown area, atop the remnants of the monorail track on the second storey of the Springfield Central Monorail Station. Level 3 has the Knight Boat, found aboard the Squidport-docked C-Spanker, parked in a green shipping container stacked atop several other containers close to the ship's bridge. Level 4 has the ATV, found in the rural/impoverished district, parked near the entrance of the Royal King Trailer Park closest to the Tyre Fire. Level 5 has the Obliteratatron Big Wheel Truck, found in front of the Springfield Stadium, parked on a massive concrete block beside the water fountain. Level 6 has the Planet Hype 50s Car, found in the Squidport, appropriately parked in a hole in the Planet Hype's front wall. Level 7 has the R/C Buggy, found in Evergreen Terrace, parked on the roof of the Krusty Burger behind the Kwik-E-Mart. | |

The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_29f44d3a | comment |
Adam Smith Hates Your Guts: Vehicles and outfits get more and more expensive in each consecutive level, but the number of coins you find in those levels does not scale that well to fit the increase in prices. Even if you never get caught by the cops and get all the coin boxes and secrets, your cash will start to run low about halfway through the game, much sooner if you stop to buy all the available cars and costumes. 100% Completion requires you to amass a whopping 14,800 coins, when the number of coins you can collect from destroying other cars is a mere ten. | |

Misbegotten Multiplayer Mode | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_2b9272d7 | comment |
Misbegotten Multiplayer Mode: The game features an unlockable multiplayer mode. Despite allowing up to four players, the mode is very unbalanced since there is no attempt to balance the vehicles for multiplayer, resulting in several of the later-game vehicles like the Open Wheel Race Car completely steamrolling everything else. The AI opponents aren't bound by the same restrictions as human players and can use vehicles that are not in the phone booth, and the multiplayer tracks don't appear to have gotten the same amount of polish as the main game's levels. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The Speed Rocket, the hidden vehicle of Level 1, is extremely fast... but barely controllable and extremely fragile. You'll total it in two decent hits (unless you use the unbreakable car cheat code). The Hover Bike has high stats in everything except toughness and looks cool to boot, but it's only accessible by the final level (at which point there aren't many missions left to use it on), costs a whopping 1000 coins to purchase (practically guaranteeing it'll be one of the last vehicles bought) and is completely outclassed stat-wise by the Open Wheel Race Car, which is also accessible in the final level and is much less costly (merely requiring you to complete all three races). | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: Using the PC character change cheat and attempting to start a mission with a character who isn't the level's playable character will result in the game locking up at the starting dialogue. Trying to cancel the dialogue results in the character being unable to move, requiring the player to reset to another mission. In pirated copies of the PC version, entering the Electaurus causes the game to crash. Getting far enough away from the Power Plant in Level 1's "Blind Big Brother" using a fast vehicle will result in the Power Couplings despawning from the map. Returning to the plant and getting close to where one of them is supposed to be will result in the game crashing. Exclusive to the Spanish version: one of Groundskeeper Willie's quotes during his gag in the Observatory in Levels 3/6 uses the wrong sample rate, causing the game to crash every time said gag is generated. | |

Dean Bitterman: Seymour Skinner isn't at his worst in this game, but he's still a jerk when it comes to the subject of Bart. Level 3's bonus mission has Lisa go to Skinner for help looking for Bart. Skinner seems to assume Bart is dead, and tries to exploit it to get Lisa to run errands for him to "get your mind off this terrible loss, which we all feel", and Lisa has to remind him that Bart is only missing. | |

Noodle Incident: The mid-Level 1 cutscene opens with the tail end of Homer listening to a news segment that concludes with "...leaving the famous bearded cartoon creator incarcerated in a Peruvian jail" before moving on to the story-relevant bit (the Wasp Cameras and black vans). It is likely a reference to Simpsons creator Matt Groening, but the story behind how and why the cartoon creator ended up in jail is never explained. | |

Getting caught means a 50-coin fine, but you can hide in car-unreachable locations, go into accessible buildings, or simply outrun the police without causing further destruction to cool the meter off. | |

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot | |

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: In Level 6, Bart tires to warn Krusty about Kang and Kodos' plot to use Buzz Cola to drive the townsfolk mad and distribute working laser guns to cause mayhem. First he has to scramble and find proof to convince Krusty, and when he does, Krusty reveals he's already set up stands with laser guns all over the port area, so Bart rushes to smash them all with his car. After the fact, Bart grouses that he should've just done the last part first. | |

Game Mod | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_45bf382b | comment |
Game Mod: Quite a few of them have been cropping up years after the game's release. The most one could do early on was modify the .txt files of vehicles, but more and more include different textures, models and sounds. As the modding community evolved, some have gone so far as to add entirely new vehicles (like Trevor's Truck or the "Mudskipper" Airboat), maps (like importing levels from The Simpsons: Road Rage, combining the three maps in the game into one, or making brand new ones like Big Blue) and even change up the missions. The most prominent of these is the Donut Mod; a Fan Sequel to the original that includes new/restructured missions, numerous aesthetic changes, some cut content and a Hellfish difficulty; imagine the whole game, but on "Never Trust a Snake" or "Set to Kill" difficulty levels. | |

Death by Adaptation: Kent Brockman, Professor Frink, Snake, Grampa, Kang and Kodos all die at different points in Level 7; Kent's brains get eaten by zombies, Frink, Snake, and Grampa get blown up by the UFO, and the aliens die when their ship crashes into the school. In the show, all of them are still alive. Of course, since Level 7 is themed off of the Treehouse of Horror episodes, one can consider it a Halloween gag not to be taken seriously. | |

Long Song, Short Scene: Most songs are longer than their missions normally take, but the music at the start of the seventh mission in Level 1 called "The Fat and the Furious" changes to another track when you get in your car, which means most only hear the first few seconds of it. If you restart the mission, it will start you in your car, meaning the music doesn't change until it's looped through once. | |

Bookends | |

Book Ends: Every area of Springfield gets at least 2 levels, with only a few minor changes between them. Level 7 is the same map as Levels 1 and 4 except with a Halloween makeover and a Broken Bridge that prevents access to the wealthy district, Mr. Burns' Mansion, the Stonecutters' tunnel, and most of the Power Plant's interior (including Homer's office). Both the first and last levels are played as Homer in the same map. The final mission of Level 7 also calls back to the first and last missions of Level 1. In the first Homer has to race to Springfield Elementary, and in the last, he has to race from the Power Plant. The final mission combines them, with him racing from the Power Plant to Springfield Elementary. It also uses the same music as the latter mission. | |

But since you require 100% Completion to use these cheats, there's not much use for it other than novelty. You can also drive backwards on multiplayer courses. | |

Dark Is Not Evil: In Level 7, the normal civilian vehicles are all replaced with spooky cars driven by ghosts, skeletons and witches. Despite their creepy appearances, they're friendly enough and you can still hitch a ride with them like any other car in the game. | |

The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_5979acea | comment |
The Open Wheel Race Car, unlocked by beating the street races in Level 7, has the best speed, acceleration, and handling in the game. However, it also has the worst toughness, so it's very fragile. | |

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4 | comment |
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Simply put, the computer can drive any car faster than you can, better than you can, and is magically much heavier than the same car is under your control. CPU Bart's Ferrini in the Level 5 bonus races is the second fastest car in the game, behind the secret car in Level 1, though its handling isn't as good to the point where it's possible to abuse one long corner on the lap race to make him crash repeatedly (or to even destroy his car), or to have one precious lapse of time where he fails to take a shortcut and ends up crashing during the checkpoint race. However, this often is an inverse (or sometimes heavily played with) for higher-tiered cars that appear in the later levels; Snake's Lil' Bandit in the Level 2 mission "Bart 'n' Frink" is much slower compared to the original version, but is arguably the tankiest car in the game. Needless to say, the actual stats of certain cars in control of the player and CPU are very inconsistent in terms of who has the upper hand. No matter how good of a driver you are, no matter how fast your car is, the game's generic traffic Will. Screw. You. Over. Your character will even call out the AI opponents for doing this in races, and they have a good reason to do so! The CPU opponents in the Bonus Game are capable of using any vehicle in the game, even those normally only accessible via the "Unlock All Cars" cheat. Human players on the other hand can only use vehicles obtained in the main game, and cannot access any other vehicles even if using the "Unlock All Cars" cheat. | |

Sanity Slippage: When Lisa finds Bart at the end of Level 3, he's speaking in random gibberish and has soiled his pants. This continues into Level 4 until Marge shows him a can of buzz cola, restoring his memory. Apparently, his brief period of insanity was caused by the aliens giving him tons of cola in their spaceship. | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: Normally when a character has any kind of appearance in a level, they won't show up in the driver's seat when you call in their car to drive. For some unknown reason, Levels 3 and 7 have exceptions to this game mechanic since Snake will still be in his Lil' Bandit and Apu will still be in his car respectively despite the former being in a Level 3 mission and the latter still being inside the Kwik-E-Mart during the entire level. Related to the above, Apu ends up quitting his involvement in the story out of fear of the Aliens at the start of Level 6, refusing to help Bart and pretending to not speak English. Yet in Level 7 he'll still be present in his car if you call it up and will act as the driver helping you move around town. You can even potentially sacrifice his car to attack the UFO in the third to last mission of the whole game. When Lisa finally finds Bart at the end of Level 3, he has gone insane and only mumbles incoherently when Lisa tries to talk to him. However, if Bart is kicked or run over before the ending conversation is triggered, he will still speak coherently via his preset dialogue. In the final level, zombies (alongside little girls dressed up as witches) have overrun the town, and are considered dangerous within the story, as they're heard attacking and eating Kent Brockman's brain. However, while they replace the adult human pedestrians for the level, they won't attack Homer in any way and behave just like normal pedestrians. Homer can even catch a ride from friendly ghosts, witches, and skeletons on the road. This is justified for Homer - back in "Treehouse of Horror III", the zombies rejected Homer for a lack of brains - but not any of the human NPCs like Chief Wiggum, Principal Skinner or Comic Book Guy who remain similarly untouched by the zombies. The Buzz Cola being powerful enough to raise the dead explains the zombies and possibly ghosts seen around Level 7, but it does not explain the other supernatural elements, like why there are witches flying around the streets on brooms and why the Lard Lad statue is alive (again). Presumably, these were done for Rule of Cool. In Level 7's fifth mission, Homer destroys his own car to deliver nuclear waste to the alien spacecraft, which story-wise is why he spends the last two missions finding other cars to deliver the last two barrels. However, the player can easily go to a phone booth and just repair Homer's own car like normal, or whichever vehicle was used in that mission. | |

Covers Always Lie | |

Covers Always Lie: The cover has several things going on that can't happen in-game under any circumstances: Bart wears a dark blue shirt. He wears his usual orange shirt in-game. Bart and Lisa drive a red car through the Flaming Hoops of Death. This scenario cannot occur in-game, as Lisa doesn't appear in Level 6 in any capacity beyond driving the Electaurus and Malibu Stacy Car. The Kwik-E-Mart (Level 1, 4, 7), Jebediah Springfield statue (Level 2, 5), Flaming Hoops of Death (Level 6), Moe's Tavern (Level 2, 5), and City Hall (Level 2, 5) are all depicted within walking distance of each other. They are either exclusive to different levels or not even close to each other. A green tentacle is seen coming out of a storm drain. Nothing like this is seen in-game. It could be foreshadowing Kang and Kodos being behind the plot, but even then, they never end up in the sewers or have an appearance outside of prerendered cutscenes. | |

Easy Level Trick | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_8125d8f6 | comment |
Easy Level Trick: The final mission of Level 6, "Kang and Kodos Strike Back" is designed to have Bart and Homer race from the Krusty Burger at the top of the hill, through Squidport and the residential areas of Springfield, to beat their opponent to Duff Brewery. However, unlike the final mission of Level 1, which also ended with a race across the map, there are no barriers to the player simply turning their car around and taking the shorter route along the dam and highway to the Brewery. | |

If an AI-controlled vehicle gets stuck in one place and is unable to correct itself, the game will eventually reset it back onto the road. This is to prevent missions involving following vehicles from becoming Unwinnable if the vehicle gets stuck. | |

Level 1's "Flowers by Irene" and Level 2's "Bart N' Frink" are especially notable for having Surveillance Vans that get stuck on practically everything. | |

Luck-Based Mission | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f | comment |
Luck-Based Mission: A fairly minor example, but still many missions have significant luck to them. For example, missions that involve another vehicle, be it a Follow, Avoid, Race or Destroy objective, are made much easier if the opposing vehicle crashes. The most significant example is probably the bonus mission in Level 5, where you have to destroy Prof. Frink's out-of-control Hovercar. It's really hard to even catch up to it, let alone damage it, but sometimes it will just crash and destroy itself. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: The Open Wheel Race Car unlocked in Level 7 is a Fragile Speedster of the highest order, with maxed-out speed, acceleration and handling but extremely poor toughness. This means that while it's extremely fast, a few major collisions will destroy it. However, if fully mastered, you have a car that will outspeed everything and win practically any race. The Speed Rocket may control terribly and have the durability of a wet paper bag, but it's still insanely fast, especially compared to the limited selection of other vehicles available in Level 1. It's fast enough that during Ralph's checkpoint race, speedrunners will start the race, go off to perform some errands around the town and still come back in time to take first place. | |

Interface Spoiler: Checking the scrapbook at any point spoils the major twist of Level 7 via the level image: Springfield Elementary as a castle. This signifies that the Level 1 map is about to get a Halloween-themed makeover. During the final mission, you only get fifty seconds to drive from the Power Plant to the School's playground. Acute players will realize that fifty seconds is not enough time to get there no matter how perfectly you drive. Sure enough, when you're about to run out of time, the Alien Car returns and grants you additional time to escape from it and get to the playground. | |

Foreshadowing | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Level 1 states that Buzz Cola has a new and improved flavour. This is because, as Bart reveals in Level 4 after having his memory and sanity restored, the Cola has been spiked with a mind-control agent by Kang and Kodos. One of the messages you can find on the Springfield Stadium screen in Level 2 says "TONIGHT: TRUCKASAURUS BROUGHT TO YOU BY CRAZY SPACE COLA", setting the stage for the latter half of the level, which involves Bart helping Frink get the titular machine started as well as revealing the aliens' plan to destroy Springfield. Level 2's final mission uses Professor Frink's theme; vaguely creepy-sounding music with a theremin as the signature instrument, which hints at the ending cutscene for that level and the rest of the game's main plot. Each level's race foreshadows who'll be playable in the following level: Bart appears as an AI opponent in Level 1 before becoming playable in Level 2, Lisa appears as an AI opponent in Level 2 before becoming playable in Level 3, etc. The spinning newspapers in the loading screen are dated in late October and go day by day towards Halloween. This is hinting that the final level is Treehouse of Horror-themed, being set on Halloween night. | |

Filler: The only story relevance in Level 1 is the opening cutscene, the tutorial mission and Homer helping Marge destroy the copies of Bonestorm 2, setting up Level 2. Aside from Bart being kidnapped in the final cutscene, Level 2 has absolutely no relevance to the plot. Bart spends the first three missions trying to get his hands on a copy of the Bonestorm 2 video game, then suddenly shifts gears to helping Professor Frink build a Truckasaurus, neither of which actually plays into the aliens' plan. | |

Competitive Balance | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_9f4a47f2 | comment |
Competitive Balance: Naturally with cars; balanced between Speed, Acceleration, Toughness, and Handling means that some cars are very fast but can't take a hit, are very fast but handle poorly, are fast and tough but slow to accelerate, etc. Mr. Burns' limo (driven by Waylon Smithers in the third and final missions of Level 1), the Hearse (the replacement of the usual police cars during hit-and-runs in Level 7), and the Chase Sedan come the closest to being universally viable but aren't available until the later levels of the game (the former two only being available in the last level). | |

Leitmotif | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_9f6fb586 | comment |
Leitmotif: Several characters have their own themes. For example, Chief Wiggum has one reminiscent of '70s cop shows, Apu has several Indian-sounding themes, Professor Frink has a theme reminiscent of Danny Elfman's compositions, and Marge has a Tom Jones-esque song. The music for Homer mostly consists of low brass instruments and bass-heavy riffs. Most of Bart's music is guitar rock, and most of Lisa's is jazzy saxophone numbers. | |

Sarcasm Mode: There are three known examples. Milhouse will say a single sentence in this manner every so often when he is kicked by any of the characters in Levels 1-6.note He doesn't appear in Level 7. When a random adult man is hit by a vehicle, sometimes he will say "Thanks a lot, Mr. Break-My-Legs!" Occasionally, when kicking Comic Book Guy, he may occasionally say this: | |

Infinity +1 Sword | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_a5e02e9e | comment |
Infinity +1 Sword: Several of the best vehicles in the game can't be accessed until Level 7, right at the end of the game: The Open Wheel Race Car, unlocked by beating the street races in Level 7, has the best speed, acceleration, and handling in the game. However, it also has the worst toughness, so it's very fragile. Mr. Burns' Limo is unlocked by completing Smithers' bonus mission in Level 7 and has high speed, toughness and turning. Its lowest stat is its acceleration, but even that's still above average compared to other vehicles. The Hearse can be purchased from Gil for 750 coins in Level 7. While it isn't as fast as the Open Wheel Race Car or as tough as Mr. Burns' Limo, the Hearse still has very high stats in all areas, making it an extremely versatile all-rounder. | |

Doing this in the first level is the fastest way to earn coins after you've exhausted the wasp cameras, coin boxes and vending machines, which don't respawn. Just smash cars near the Simpsons' house and hide in the backyard to let the heat die down. | |

Episode of the Dead: The game features a Treehouse of Horror-themed final Level 7, with the main plot being that the aliens have laced the town's water supply with tainted cola which causes the zombies to rise from the graveyard. The NPC pedestrians of Springfield have now been replaced with zombies and little girls dressed up as witches, Krusty Burgers has been retitled "Zombie Burgers", and the radio describes them as attacking Springfield Station. Though the majority of the zombie NPCs never serve as enemy mobs and won't attack Homer. The zombies presumably return to their graves or are no longer active once Homer blows up the aliens' UFO. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: Certain missions in the game require you to either obtain a certain vehicle or change the character's clothes to continue. However, once you do just that, there is nothing that can stop you from picking the vehicle or character's clothing of your choice before starting. In some missions the timer doesn't start until you get into your vehicle, which means there's nothing stopping you from making your way to the checkpoint on foot, calling your vehicle from a phone booth, and then starting the mission without having to worry about the timer. There are a few race missions that can be made much easier by going the opposite way than the developers intended; namely "The Fat and Furious" (Level 1, Mission 7; Carl needs to be pushed inside the Power Plant before talking to him for this one to work), "Getting Down with the Clown" (Level 6, Mission 2), and "Kang & Kodos Strike Back" (Level 6, Mission 7). | |

Hypocritical Humor | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_b707726f | comment |
Hypocritical Humor: Comic Book Guy is guilty of this after Lisa helps him in the first mission of Level 3. Practically every character who happens to be driving under the player's control can end up saying this, depending on how reckless the player is when controlling them (whether they hit traffic, destructible scenery and/or pedestrians). It will also border on Insane Troll Logic and/or Never My Fault depending on the situation and context: The Sea Captain has this gem when Lisa tries to enlist his aid in reaching the moored cargo ship. According to Lisa as one of her interactive pedestrian responses, the band "Up with Niceness" (implied to be a kid-friendly band that sings about good behaviour) was going to perform at Springfield Elementary before the lead singer got arrested for drug possession. At the beginning of the second mission of Level 6, Barney expresses skepticism that a drink could control someone's behavior and then becomes agitated at the fact that he hasn't had a Duff in two hours. | |

Money Spider: The Wasp Cameras all drop a nice sum of coins when destroyed. Though their method of attacking is to shoot a laser blast at you and make you lose coins. | |

Spring Jump | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_bdb11380 | comment |
Spring Jump: Steam vents are an extra powerful jump, and can be combined with a double jump (which, if timed too early, can easily cancel the height of the prior jump). The vents are necessary for several on-foot missions and sidequests. | |

The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_c5f0119c | comment |
Insane Troll Logic: In Level 6, Bart tries to warn Skinner about the aliens' plan to distribute laser guns throughout Springfield so people driven insane by their cola will kill each other. Skinner instead complains about Bart forgetting the school's "zero-tolerance policy on lasers" and confiscates the laser gun he took as proof despite neither of them being on school grounds. | |

Broken Bridge | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_c5f23623 | comment |
Broken Bridge: Depending on the map, some areas are blocked off on the first visit and can only be accessed upon returning or vice versa: The rich side of town can be visited in Levels 1 and 4 but becomes blocked off in Level 7 due to the zombie attack. In return, the cemetery, Power Plant cafeteria and Mr. Burns' office can now be visited despite being blocked off in earlier levels. Mr. Burns' mansion is closed off in Level 1 but opens up in Level 4. An inaccessible rooftop on Level 2 can be accessed on Level 5 via a conveniently placed fire truck. Conversely, the broken lamppost that allowed access to the rooftop of Moe's in Level 2 has been fixed by Level 5, forcing the player to find another way up. The rooftop can technically be accessed in Level 2, but only with the use of cheats. | |

Hummer Dinger: Marge's Canyonero from Marge Simpson In "Screaming Yellow Honkers" returns for her respective level and it's both tough and fast, but has lacklustre handling in contrast to its hefty weight. This makes it prone to rolling over at top speed if you make sharp turns without hitting the E-brakes. | |

Iris Out: Used when entering/leaving buildings, buying clothes or vehicles, entering/exiting a vehicle without an animated door, and when getting in/out of a vehicle and something's blocking the way in or out. The last of which is especially helpful in speedruns or in general as it's a lot faster to jump onto the roof and get in rather than waiting for the animation. | |

Lighter and Softer: It's Grand Theft Auto if it were a cartoon. You can run over and kick people, but they can't die. You can get in and drive any car you want, but you're just hitchhiking, not carjacking. You can piss off the police, but all you get is a small fine (you have no weapons for the cops to confiscate). Unlike the TV series, the game's jokes rarely, if ever, swerve into political and/or sexual jokes, and instead rely on light-hearted graphical jokes and slapsticks (Larry the Looter and Itchy and Scratchy notwithstanding). Since it's still The Simpsons, however, there's still plenty of profanity and general adult humor. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Fail a mission five times and the game allows you to skip it, except for the final 3 missions which expect you to complete in one go. However, if you're going for 100% completion, you are required to complete all 49 missions in the game without skipping them. If an AI-controlled vehicle gets stuck in one place and is unable to correct itself, the game will eventually reset it back onto the road. This is to prevent missions involving following vehicles from becoming Unwinnable if the vehicle gets stuck. Player-driven vehicles have a reset function that automatically triggers if the player drives into a death pit or flips their car in a manner that prevents it from automatically righting itself. The player can also manually trigger a reset. In Level 3's fifth mission "Slithery Sleuthing", where you have to help Chief Wiggum collect evidence of Snake's crimes, the Hit and Run meter doesn't rise if you commit driving felonies since you're playing as a police officer. This is helpful as this is one of the harder missions of the level. In Follow objectives, which task players in pursuing a particular vehicle, said vehicles will be invincible to prevent the missions from becoming unwinnable, no matter how much damage you do to them. This can still be bypassed with a specific cheat code that allows you to destroy cars with a single hit, however, but by then, the objective becomes Unwinnable by Design, especially Hit & Follow objectives that require you to hit them to drop their cargo. | |

Lightning Bruiser | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_db6230b7 | comment |
Lightning Bruiser: Mr. Burns' limo, which only becomes available in Level 7, the final level. It has pretty good all-around stats at 4.5-star Speed / 3-star Acceleration / 4.5-star Toughness / 3.5-star Handling. Its primary shortcoming is its mediocre acceleration and handling, but it is the fastest "tough" car. An equal contender is the Hearse, which also only becomes available in Level 7. With stats at 4.5-star Speed / 4.5-star Acceleration / 3.5-star Toughness / 4-star Handling, it is slightly less durable than Mr. Burns' Limo, but its equal speed and increased handling and acceleration stats more than make up for it. A lesser example would be the Car Built For Homer obtained in Level 5. Its stats are 4.5-star Speed / 3.5-star Acceleration / 3.5-star Toughness / 3-star Handling. Although its stats are inferior to the two above vehicles, it is unlocked earlier in the game, making it more accessible and can easily be relied on to reach Level 7. | |

Exact Words: In the last mission of Level 3, Sea Captain McCallister tells Lisa that he saw Bart get inside a black limo, and points to the limo when he spots it. The mission requires Lisa to chase and destroy the limo, after which she is horrified that she just destroyed the vehicle, thinking she killed Bart. McCallister reveals to her when she talks to him again that Bart should be fine, he did get inside the limo, but since Lisa ran off after the limo, he didn't get the chance to explain that Bart got out of the limo and onto a nearby ship. | |

All Just a Dream: Double subverted in the ending. Homer thinks that saving Springfield from an alien invasion was all part of a weird dream brought on by eating too many raw hot dogs, and Lisa and Marge have to remind him that actually happened. Then he asks about the ninja babysitters, which actually is just part of a hot dog dream. | |

Law of Conservation of Detail: The Player Character that hops into a car with a driver already in it will occupy the passenger's seat — even with the Car Built for Homer, whose back seats are in a separate dome behind the driver. If the player selects the Honor Roller in Level 7, Bart will occupy the driver's seat with Homer sitting in the rear. Agnes Skinner also occupies the rear seat of Skinner's Sedan if he's driving it, though only as a static, low-poly model similar to the civilian vehicle drivers. | |

The Alleged Car | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_f237981e | comment |
The Alleged Car: Comic Book Guy's Kremlin, which is a slovenly piece of junk filled with empty pizza boxes, comics and other nerd junk. The car is also lopsided, so the driver's seat has sunken deeper into the car. Worst. Car. Ever. This is however, downplayed in that it has a respectable 2.5-star speed and durability complemented by steady handling (4 stars), comparable to some mid-range vehicles like Lisa and Marge's default cars. Moe's Sedan, based on his car from the episode "Dumbbell Indemnity". It's got low acceleration, limited top speed, and is worn out. Similarly downplayed to a lesser extent like the CBG's Kremlin, as its decent toughness and handling make it a fair substitute for Bart's default vehicle in the second level. The Duff Truck has the worst cumulative stats of any vehicle in the game and is a borderline Joke Item, having a half-star ranking in speed and acceleration and one star in handling, with its only not-terrible stat being its toughness at four stars. Even then, every other tough car has better stats in every possible way, including the Plow King which is purchasable at the start of the game. The Donut Truck for pretty much the same reasons as the Duff Truck, only being slightly better at accelerating and handling at the cost of toughness, the Duff Truck's sole good stat. The Bonestorm Truck, used in a single mission in Level 1 and accessible to the player only with the "Unlock All Cars" cheat, has rock bottom stats all-around. It's slow, takes forever to accelerate, doesn't turn particularly well and is extremely easy to destroy. If you destroy your vehicle, you can drive the chassis, rather hilariously. It will, of course, be painfully slow and make a shrill noise as the remains of the wheels grate against the asphalt. Oddly, the chassis is perfectly capable of turning on a dime. Drive it into a Golden Wrench power-up and repair your car to avoid having to pay the repair fees. You can also just go on foot to find a wrench, and the car will repair itself that way too. The Monorail Car, Level 2's secret vehicle. It's already broken by the time you get into it and so it understandably has abysmal stats, with half a star in everything but toughness. It also constantly veers to the right, making it even more of a chore to drive. | |

Stone Wall | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_f62cc38a | comment |
Stone Wall: The Armored Car has 5 stars in Toughness, which makes it incredibly durable. However, it has 1.5 stars in every other stat, making it very slow to move and slow to turn. It's also the "destroy" target for the Level 5 mission "Kwik Cash", where it can take a serious beating. The most durable driveable vehicle is the Nonuplets Minivan, which can only be unlocked when using the "Unlock All Cars" cheat code after achieving 100% game completion. It has 99 hitpoints, far surpassing even the Armored Car, but is balanced out by having poor stats everywhere else. The AI-controlled Bandit in the Level 2 mission "Bart 'n' Frink", specifically during the "Talk to Chief Wiggum" objective. Should the player chase after Snake and try to destroy his car, it will take a very long time to do so, due to it having an immense amount of hitpoints, although it isn't as fast as the drivable version. | |

Ow, My Body Part!: Many characters have variants of this. Homer will occasionally say "Ow! My neck!", "Ow! My ass!", and "Ow! My head!". Bart goes "Ow, my ovaries!", referencing a line from the show when he was faking being sick. He also says "Ow, my skull. My beautiful skull!" and "OWWW! My coccyx!" Lisa says "Ow, my hair!" Grandpa Abe says "Ow, my metal skull!" Apu's line is "Oh no! I smashed my skull!" Moe also says "Ow, my coccyx!" when being hit by a vehicle in Level 1. Chief Wiggum and Marge say "Ow, my tushie!" | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: You have the ability to kick civilians and even other Simpsons characters and send them flailing on the ground. Doing this too much in a short amount of time will result in the police coming after you. But in Levels 1 and 4, Ralph Wiggum is behind a fence that the police can't get to, so you can endlessly kick him as much as you want while the police blow themselves up trying to reach you. This trope is very likely the only reason why he's there at all. You can kick pelicans in the Squidport area on levels 3 and 6 and have them explode into a shower of feathers. Among the destructible objects in the game, one of them is a kid's lemonade stand. Since it is part of the path taken in the tutorial mission, it is likely the player will break it by accident. | |

Running Gag: Many of the levels feature vehicles that resemble or literally are bosses from previous levels, such as the second level featuring Black Van Pizza Delivery. Ralph failing to count "3, 2, 1" properly during his races. He finally counts properly in Level 6, which happens to be the last level where he hosts a race. Of the quips that play when breaking objects or smashing into things, the Simpson family all try to shift the blame or consequences onto each other: | |

No-Damage Run | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_fac8c4d6 | comment |
No-Damage Run: The final three missions, the "Alien "Auto" topsy" trilogy, each require you to deliver a barrel of waste to the alien ship's tractor beam. Since it's strapped to your bumper, you have to make the delivery without a single major impact to the car. While this might sound easy, you're on a time limit and two of the three missions throw the Black Alien Sports Car into the mix which you have to outrun on the first pass. Part Three also forces you to use the mission-unique WWII Jeep With Rocket, which is fast but handles poorly, making it even harder to avoid hitting anything. | |

Brick Joke | |
The Simpsons Hit & Run (Video Game) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: The Spinning Paper for Level 1 headlines Homer ruining a hot dog-eating contest. In the ending cutscene, Homer initially thinks his actions in saving Springfield from Kang and Kodos were all part of a bad dream from eating too many raw hot dogs. In Level 1, Homer helps Marge gather up copies of Bonestorm 2 to protect children from the game's violence, causing a shortage. Level 2 includes Bart trying to find a copy of the game and Jimbo saying that "some crazy lady destroyed all the rest." After Level 1's final mission, Homer discovers that the mysterious black vans supposedly spying on the citizens of Springfield are actually pizza delivery vans. One of the generic traffic vehicles that spawn in Level 2 are similar-looking vans with the "Black Van Pizza Delivery" printed on the side. In the fifth mission of Level 2, Bart helps Cletus gather roadkill to deliver to Krusty Burger, then you have to avoid Apu who doesn't appreciate the competition. Then in the third mission of Level 3, Lisa helps Apu ram Cletus's truck and gather up the roadkill he drops. In Level 2, the Popsicle Stick Skyscraper has been set alight by the nearby 50-foot Magnifying Glass. By the time you reach Level 5, all that's left of it is a small pile of smoking Popsicle sticks. In Level 3, Lisa helps Chief Wiggum collect evidence to get Snake busted on the three-strikes law. In Level 5, Snake ropes Apu into helping him with his community service. | |

Racing Minigame: There are four in each level, three Street Races and one Wager Race. Street Races will cordon off a portion of the level for the player to race in, and come in Time Trial GoalComplete laps in a closed circuit track and finish before the time runs out, Circuit Goalcomplete three laps in a closed circuit track against AI racers and finish in First Place and Checkpoint GoalPass through all checkpoints on a non-looping track AI racers and finish in First Place varieties, each run by Milhouse, Nelson, and Ralph respectively note Excluding Level 7, where they are run by zombies.. Completing all three Street Races unlocks a bonus vehicle for the player to call up from phone booths, and is required for 100% completion. They often don't do a standard countdown, though Ralph has to have the funniest ones. Wager Races are run by Louie, which is not necessary for 100% completion and requires the player to pay an entry fee in order to participate. The player must complete a full lap of the level map note excluding Level 7, where the player must race from the Power Plant to Springfield Elementary and back again within a specified time limit. If successful, the player receives a coin reward that scales with the race's difficulty, itself tied to the vehicle the player uses: fast cars with good acceleration and/or handling receive the Easy payout (2x the entry fee); cars with middling stats receive the Medium payout (3x the entry fee); slow cars with bad acceleration and/or handling receive the Hard payout (4x the entry fee). The difficulty of each race, alongside the entry fee and subsequent coin rewards, also increases for each successive level. The "Bonus Game" is based on slot car racing. Each of the seven tracks is unlocked by collecting all the collector cards found in a single level. | |
