''The Simpsons Game'' is a platformer based on ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]''. It's also an [[Affectionate Parody]] of loads and loads of other games, and [[Lampshading|lampshades]] just about every [[Trope]] they can think to lampshade.
 
Each character has their own special powers: [[Anti-Hero|Homer]] can become a giant belly and smash into things; Bart becomes [[Secret Identity|Bartman]], and is able to glide and shoot with his slingshot; Lisa can [[Badass Preacher|harness the power of the Buddha]] and [[The Power of Rock|stun enemies with her saxophone]]; and Marge can [[Slogan Yelling Megaphone Guy|rally up supporters]] and is able to send Maggie into small gaps.
Line 39:
* [[Brick Joke]]: In Bartman Begins, the mastermind behind the robbery is revealed to be {{spoiler|Skinner}}. In Mob Rules, he is a recruitable character, and is found ''in front of the museum he tried to rob.''
** During the first cutscene of The Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game, Homer refuses to eat any sushi ("unless it's full of chocolate and there's no sushi in it"). The only available food in the level is sushi, and he eats it anyway. This is just a gameplay mechanic, but it's still hilarious.
* [[The Cameo]]: {{spoiler|Sideshow Bob}} is working with Kang & Kodos. Bart [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] how weird it is that he'd be working with the aliens; {{spoiler|Bob}} advises Bart to "[[Leaning Onon the Fourth Wall|Try not to think about it too much, and instead just focus on what an unexpected treat it is to see me here]]".
* [[Cheese-Eating Surrender Monkeys]]: The French villagers in [[Medal of Honor|Medal Of Homer]] play this trope straight to a [[Your Mileage May Vary|frankly]] [[Planet of Hats|absurd]] [[Dude, Not Funny|degree]]. Young Abraham Simpson even [[Exact Words|calls the French like this]] in the same segment.
** Just to be clear about this, the first mission in the level is a [[Fetch Quest]] to remove all the white flags from a French city.
Line 76:
** With a hell of a [[Take That]] in the mix:
{{quote| '''Matt Groening:''' "Your creator is TV's most beloved animation visionary!"<br />
'''Homer:''' "[[Seth MacfarlaneMacFarlane]]?" }}
* [[Shout-Out]]: To a metric ton of other [[Video Game|video games]]. Even ''[[Hotel Mario (Video Game)|Hotel Mario]]'', when the Mario [[Expy]] says at the end "I hope it's a-spaghetti!". Not a lot of tropers are willing to describe them, but you have a list of them in [[The Other Wiki|The simpsons wiki]]. [http://simpsonswiki.net/wiki/The_Simpsons_Game/References\]
* [[Slippy-Slidey Ice World]]
* [[Slogan Yelling Megaphone Guy]]: Marge.
