''The Simpsons Game'' is a platformer based on ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|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.

=== This game provides examples of the following tropes: ===

* [[Acting Unnatural]]:

'''Homer:''' The boss! Quick, act natural. ''[puts on business glasses and [[Clipboard of Authority|pretends to write on a clipboard]]]'' }}

* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Of just about everything.

* [[Alien Invasion]]

* [[Anal Probing]]: A conversation between two alien [[Mooks]] in the [[Alien Invasion]] level,

'''Alien 1:''' Of course with [[Anal Probing]]! What else would we do?! Talk to him?! }}

* [[Anti-Hero]]: Homer and Bart.

* [[Self-Deprecation]]: Matt Groening's cameo.

** With a hell of a [[Take That]] in the mix:

'''Homer:''' "[[Seth MacFarlane]]?" }}

* [[Shout-Out]]: To a metric ton of other [[Video Game|video games]]. Even ''[[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\]
