1. Introduction
Lets be honest here, there's never been a half-way decent Simpsons game
on a home console... until now. Although it may have got reasonably harsh
criticism from the so-called experts, to a Simpsons nut, this game is
everything they could have ever asked for. Its blindly obvious that the
developers were very much aware of the Simpsons world when they made this
game, which gives the game a good lot of depth in the different locations
you will come across. Sure, the absence of some peoples favorite character
may annoy them, but think of how many characters there are in Springfield.
It would take a year just to put them all in. Lets be happy with what we
have, and hope that the Simpsons Skateboarding lives up to the now higher
expectations. Anyway, that's enough, time to get on with the FAQ.
2. LOCATIONS
The many locations of Springfield are split into 6 sections. Below is a
list of all the different locations in each level. I have intentionally
left out the unimportant throw away buildings, which repeat in a number
of levels, for example the RX drugs shop. Anywho, If you know of anywhere
I have left out, feel free to e-mail me at
[email protected],
and I'll gladly add it in the next update, with full credit to you.
2.1 Evergreen Terrace
The first level you are given access to in Evergreen Terrace. This is
essentially a warm-up level to get some practice in. Its an alright level,
but not particularly big, and there isn't much to see. Still, it gets a
solid 3/5.
Barriers of the Level
To prevent you from going to the next level, there are different types
of barriers in your way, in Evergreen Terrace, there is a wall made of
rubbish, similar to the one in "A Tale of Two Springfields"

2.3 Springfield Dam
The Dam is home to all of the out of town places the Simpson Family have
visited in the past, like Kamp Krusty and Rancho Relaxo. A fairly good
level, although initially hard to navigate. 3/5
Barriers of the Level

2.4 Springfield Nuclear Power Plant
Springfield Nuclear is in my opinion a very bitty level. The only main
attractions are the Plant and the Springfield Mall. Still, spotting all
the familiar shop names in the mall is interesting, but overall, the level
is a non- event. 2/5

2.5 Downtown
Personally, this is my favourite level. Its a sightseers dream, with many
great references to "Marge Vs The Monorail" like the remains of the short
lived Monorail, as well as giant Simpson family balloons hanging from the
Sky. A definite 5/5 for this massive level
Barriers of the Level
Hehe, there's a fallen over sugar lorry blocking downtown.
