Plot hole: NeverQuest: A cut scene plays straight after Homer finally defeats The Dragon at the very end of the level. This cut scene shows Homer retrieving the key card for this level from The Dragon's nest. There was no way for Homer to know the key card was going to be in The Dragon's nest. Especially since the walls of the nest were significantly taller than Homer was, which would have completely blocked all view of the key card.

Revealing mistake: NeverQuest: Just after taking down The Dragon for the first time in the level in the village, a cut scene begins where Homer and Marge start to kiss. The animation on Homer's mouth is seriously messed up as he and Marge kiss. You can see some of his lip is in the corner of his stubble, which isn't normal.

Bug: NeverQuest: At the first point during this level, you will have to take down The Dragon (Patty and Selma). At various points, she will hold her position behind a massive gate and Homer will have to use his Homer Ball power to attack The Dragon. If The Dragon begins to leave and you attack with Homer Ball and hit The Dragon's tail as it leaves, you will just fade through the tail and The Dragon won't lose any lives.

Continuity mistake: Bargain Bin: When the 8-bit Simpsons are headed for the furnace, they are almost half way down the line to the furnace. When the level starts, the 8-bit Simpsons are suddenly next to the platform Homer and Bart stand on, hardly anywhere near where they were a moment ago.

Continuity mistake: Bargain Bin: In the final part of this level where you have to save the 8-bit Simpsons from being thrown into the furnace, if there are only a few seconds left on the clock, the 8-bit Simpsons will appear next to the furnace. If you then pull a lever, a huge curtain will close the furnace. As the curtain is placed, the 8-bit Simpsons will have vanished from in front of the furnace, even if the lever is pulled only a few seconds before the clock finishes counting down.

Casual Person

Other mistake: Bargain Bin: Whenever Homer and Bart fall off the platform, they would usually die from the fall. As they hit the ground, they go through some random object on the floor. If there is no object on the floor, then they just land on the ground, but still continue to act as if they are falling.

Casual Person

Plot hole: Bargain Bin: After Homer and Bart save the 8-bit Simpsons from being burned in the furnace, Homer and Bart run into an elevator while the 8-bit Simpsons remain inside the "Escape from Krusty Island" game. When the elevator opens, the Simpsons walk into a theatre and discover the 8-bit Simpsons are there waiting for them. How did they get there so quickly? There certainly would be no time for them to escape the game and get to the theatre before the Simpsons did as the Simpsons had a huge head start on them.

More quotes from The Simpsons Game

Trivia: This game offers 16 levels with different 2-character groupings. There are seven levels with Homer and Bart (eight if you count Game Over for the Wii and PSP versions), three with Bart and Lisa, two with Marge and Lisa, one with Homer and Lisa and one with Homer and Marge. However, there are no levels in the game that feature a 2-character grouping between Marge and Bart. The closest the game ever gets to this is the 4-character grouping Game Over (but only for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions).
