STORY / GAMEPLAY Your city has been overrun by rats(!) Your mission is to force those little animals inside an extermination machine, controlled by little Bart! The idea surely can freak someone out, but the game is so fun to play. Using different objects and obstacles, Krusty must create a path for the rats to follow and guide them towards their doom. Other creatures, such as snakes and flying pigs, attempt to hinder Krusty's progress by injuring him. Krusty can attack those extra foes by throwing pies(!) in order to defeat them. In each stage, each extermination device is run and controlled by a different character, including Bart, Homer, Corporal Punishment, and Sideshow Mel. The game follows the classic run, shoot and jump-onto-platforms pattern as most games of its era. So things are pretty familiar to the average gamer.
GRAPHICS / SOUND The DOS version has plenty of simultaneous colors (64 in total) and lots of funny details pretty close to the 32-colors Amiga version; just watch Homer dressed like a clown and you'll laugh a lot! The animation on the DOS is quite smooth and the sprites keep their original cartoon-ish style. As for the sound, the DOS version supports Soundblaster / AdLib hardware, as well as Roland and features some nice in-game tunes and funny sound effects.
