Montgomery Burns. Mr. Burns has fixed the contest though, so that Bart will win, because the prize is a world wide Krusty treasure hunt. He figures, that with the Simpsons gone, and Homer not working at the Nuclear plant, he can get back some of the money Homer lost him. He has also called it favors from all of his far off relatives. When the Simpsons arrive in their country, they are going to try to get rid of them for good. But someone how Bart and the others always manage to escape harms way...... Or Do They? /-/-/-/-/ The Map \-\-\-\-\ Krusty follows the Simpsons via satellite, everywhere they go. When they go to each country, he will show them the points of interest, on a giant chart. Use the D-PAD to use the pointer to highlight an icon. A caption of what the icon is will show up below the chart. To select an icon press the 1 or 2 BUTTON while highlighting it. All of the icons must be completed in a specific order, and all completed for the you to be able to move on to the next level. There are also mini-games, which are all different in each country, these may be played unitl you have won, and will award you Krusty collectibles and things like that. Once you have completed an icon, it will dim and become un-selectable. Once all of these are done, go to the exit icon, and you will then face Mr. Burns' relative. MAP EXAMPLE _______________________ | | | ICON ICON | | | | ICON | | | | | | | | EXIT ICON | |_______________________| /-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/ Krusty Collectibles \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\ Everywhere that Bart goes there are tons of cheap Krusty souvenirs and merchandise. These items can be very valuable to Bart in a couple of ways. For every 15 Krusty items Bart collects, he will gain an extra life. These items also have an effect on Bart's scoring system. Each item he has will give him some extra points at the end of each level. At the end of each level Krusty will come on the TV and announce Barts status in the worldwide treasure hunt. And because some give him more points, they are more valuable than others. In each level, there will be one Unique Krusty Item which the rest of the Simpson family will probably have to help you find. The scoring goes as follows: Complete Level-------------------------10,000 pts Burns Relative Defeated ----------------5,000 pts Unique Krusty Item----------------------2,000 pts Bartman Cape------------------------------500 pts Big Diamonds------------------------------500 pts Grape Squishee----------------------------300 pts Head of Jebediah Springfield--------------200 pts Enemies Within Level----------------------150 pts Cheap Krusty Collectible------------------100 pts Small Diamonds----------------------------100 pts Bartman Cape: This allows Bart to fly by pressing the 2 Button. When he starts flashing your time is almost up, so try to Find a safe spot to land. A long fall could be fatal. Big Diamonds: Gains an extra life. Grape Squishee: Adds energy to Bart's health meter. Head of Jebediah Springfield: Makes Bart invincible for a very short Period of time, although water and pits Will still take away a life. /-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/ Bart's Controls \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\ LEFT/RIGHT - Move either left or right. UP - To climb up an object. DOWN - To descend from an object or duck. START - Pauses game. 1 BUTTON - Shoot 2 BUTTON - Hold to run, or fly ( Only while Bartman ). SUPER JUMP - Hold the 2 Button, and then quickly press the one button To do a longer + higher jump. /-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/ World Tour Briefing \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\ You will begin your world tour journey with only three lives. You will most likely need every single one of them. Bart can usually take three hits without a problem, but then the fourth time he will lose a life. Falling into a bottomless pit, or a body of water will tale one life away automatically. In all of the countries those careless kids have left there firecracker balls laying around. You will begin each level unarmed, but can then arm yourself with these. Each bag of them is worth ten shots, an your over all amout is at the top of the screen. /-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/ Bart vs. The World \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\ - CHINA - Travelogue ---------- Tourist Attractions 1). Junk: All of the sailors around this ship are trying to stop Bart from causing any trouble. They are armed with Fire Crackers, Pop Bottle Rockets and Cherry Bombs, probably because they Invented fireworks. There are also ducks that will go around And try to peck at you. Use your senses and agility to escape The heavy health blows. Once you get used to playing this is alot easier. Basically all I can tell you is to be cautious And don't get hit by a bunch of fireworks and ducks. 2). Great Wall: This 2,000 year old wall, isn't much more than a skate boarding ramp to Bart. There are a few enemies, but you mostly just have to watch out for innocent tourists, I mean don't run into them. Also be warned, potholes can do some damage if you run into one, so pay attention. I should also add that there are some Chinese Dragons in this level, but they aren't really a problem. Really to beat this level, just carefully skateboard down the big wall without dying. Mini Games 1). Sliding Puzzle: Each of the pictures has been divided into 15 pieces and scrambled. The pieces are numbered The object of the game is to move them into the Correct order. Use the D-pad to move the pieces, And use the 2 button to shift it into a space. 2). Card Match: This ancient Chinese card game is much like the U.S game of concentration. You will have 5 tries to flip and match 2 cards. Use the cursor to highlight a card, then use the 2 button to flip it over. Burns' Relative: Fu Manchu Burns This is Mr. Burns' third cousin. He has an evil looking mustache, and is the boss man of China. To beat the China level of the game the Simpsons will have to defeat this ancient menace. - North Pole - Travelogue ---------- Tourist Attractions 1). The Ice Cave: While inside this cave, there are a ton of turns, most of them the wrong ones. You have to be very careful, or a falling Ice spike will hit you. An occasional snow wind is normal to, these have a tendency to freeze you. Also becareful of what bubble you pick ( pop! ). 2). The Frozen River: The party that you must catch up to is on the far bank of this frozen river. Unfortunately the bridge is gone, so Bart must cross using the ice floes. Be very careful, if you fall, well, you'll be frozen AND sorry. Mini Games 1). Igloo Shell Game: Basically there are three igloos in a line. You have to choose which one the Krusty collectible is under after they have been shuffled. Position Maggie with the D-pad, press the 2 button to pick That igloo. 2). Sliding Puzzle: Ah, a puzzle carved from a block of ice by some of the local eskimo's. This is really just like the 1 puzzle you had in China, except it is a different picture when you are done. Burns' Relative: Abomable Burns This guy is half man, half beast and half Burns. He is very nasty, and looked like a disgruntled poodle. Beware, he eats tourists and nasty little kids for breakfast. - Egypt - Travelogue ---------- Tourist Attractions 1). Valley of Kings: This large desert will take away one of Bart's hard earned lives if it manages to get sand on top of him completely. Keep, going and this is not going to be a problem. Also watch out for sandstorms, treasure rooms, and secret passages. 2). The Sphinx: Hmmmmmm... The body of a furocious lion, and the head of a lowly Nuclear plant worker? Anyway, you have to be really careful of the cobra's, they don't play nice. Bart will have to do a lot of climbing. Mini Games 1). Sliding Puzzle: This like the other two sliding puzzles, is a picture having to do with the country Bart is in. So basically. Just solve the puzzle and be done With it. 2). Sorry, there is only one mini game in this stage. Burns' Relative: Ramses Burns Like all of the other Burns' in the world, Ramses is the head guy in Egypt. He is supposedly the pharaoh of all pharaohs, and is the leading slave driver in the country. Not a nice looking character! - Hollywood - The Final stop of the Simpson's world tour! Travelogue ---------- Tourist Attractions 1). Soundstages 1 & 2: While Bart is piddling around, he finds his way on to two big Hollywood sound stages. When the word "Action" is called out, he must participate in a few of the leading stage roles - no biggie. 2). What!!! Last level and there's only one Attraction!!!!! Mini Games 1). Moe's: Ok, in LA there is a recreation of Moe's bar, only it is in western form. Bart must avoid being hit by the drinks that slide down the bar, while at the same time trying to collect the Krusty items that go down as well. Beware, one hit will end this trip to the bar. Jump over the drinks with button 2, and move with the D-Pad 2). Find The Bats: In this game Bart must go up to the three coffins open them in the correct order using button 2 and the D-Pad. If he opens them in the correct order, he will receive 3 Krusty collectibles. If not..... Burns' Relative: Eric Von Burns This director is very close to Monty Burns and is the last chance for The Burn's clan to take you out. He wears a single eye glass, and isn't very friendly, naturally, he is the toughest boos to defeat. Hurray!!! You Beat the Game!!! /-/-/-/-/ Cheats \-\-\-\-\ Bartmen + Extra Lives: On the Chinese Junk, go to the left most sail. At the stage before last, jump off from the left side and get two Bartmen. Then fly straight up and get 3 extra lives.
