Level 1 takes place in the Simpsons' own neighborhood, Evergreen Terrace. Take control of Homer as he runs some basic errands, goes to work, and comes home to find a strange black van spying on his family.
The Cola Caper (Tutorial)
As you begin the game, Bart will explain to you how the basic controls work. If you don't want to listen to him, you can disable the tutorial with a button press or in the options menu.
Either way, talk to Marge to begin the mission. Someone ate every dessert in the house? Now Homer certainly wouldn't have done that, would he?
Drive to the Kwik-E-Mart and talk to Apu. Pick up the ice cream and cola, and this mission is complete. Of course it's easy, it's a tutorial mission. Don't worry, it gets harder.
S-M-R-T
Lisa forgot her science project! You must race Principal Skinner to the school and give Lisa her project back.
Talk to Marge at the Simpson house to begin the mission. Collect the science project, then get into your car and start driving to the school. Along the way, you'll meet Skinner's sedan. Take shortcuts to beat him -- the best shortcut to use is to take a right turn before you get to the Kwik-E-Mart, then go up the fire truck's ladder. You'll careen over the Krusty Burger and into first place.
If you decide to go for a more direct approach, then try bumping Skinner's car from the rear and forcing him to spin out.
Once you beat Skinner to the school, walk inside and talk to Lisa to give back the science project. Hey, where's the gall bladder?
Petty Theft Homer
Whoops! Homer "borrowed" some of Flanders' stuff, and now Flanders wants it back.
Go to the Simpson house and talk to Marge. Flanders is miffed AND P.O.ed? Better go talk to him. Run next door and have a chat with Flanders. Apparently he's even called the police to get his stuff back. Homer thinks up a lame excuse to get out of there, and now he has to go locate the missing items.
Get into your vehicle and follow the radar to collect the items!
- Flanders' tuxedo is next to the Evergreen Terrace sign.
- Continue driving until you reach the side entrance to the cemetery, there you will find Flanders' lawn mower.
- Barney has Flanders' cooler. Keep driving down the road until you reach the gas station, then talk to Barney to receive the cooler.
- After you get the cooler, make a U-turn and drive back toward the Flanders house. The lawn chair will be by the cemetery entrance, right where you found the lawn mower.
- Almost done! Now you have to find Flanders' stupid picture of his stupid family. The family portrait is sitting near the Krusty glass by the Simpson house.
- Finally, Rod's inhaler is on top of the Duff Truck. Drive to the Kwik-E-Mart and grab it. You can either use a double jump to get up to the top, or push the button to make the platform rise.
After you get the six items, go back to Flanders to complete the mission and get your reward... a prayer from the Lord's number one fan. Stupid Flanders getting happiness from religion!
