Overview and Gameplay
Martin Prince’s virtual reality machine traps Bart inside six malfunctioning programs in Virtual Bart, a Simpsons action game built from short, varied scenarios.
The wheel sends Bart into Dino Bart, Baby Bart, Pig Bart, Class Picture, Mount Splashmore, or Doomsday Bart. Stages switch between side-scrolling platform action, target throwing, water-slide routing, and rear-view motorcycle action, with attempts, energy, time limits, and bonus or penalty panels shaping each run.
Controls And Mechanics
- Controls change by program, with directions used for moving, aiming, or steering.
- B is used for actions such as jumping, throwing, or accelerating depending on the scenario.
- A, X, and Y handle stage-specific attacks or special actions.
- Start pauses the action.
- The SNES version is single-player only, with no versus or co-op mode.
