Summary

The Game Boy Advance version of The Simpsons: Road Rage landed in North America on July 3, 2003, courtesy of Altron’s development and THQ’s publishing. It translates the TV‑show’s chaotic charm onto a handheld, borrowing the pick‑up‑and‑drop‑off hustle that made Sega’s Crazy Taxi famous—a similarity that once sparked a patent dispute before being settled out of court.

In Road Rage mode you choose a Simpson—Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, or even Mr. Burns—and race against the clock to ferry passengers, earning cash for speed and high ratings. Faster drops refill your timer, while impatient riders drain it, pushing you to master shortcuts and avoid Burns’ nuclear transit buses and his occasional rams. Accumulating wealth unlocks twelve extra drivers, five new start points, and, after a million dollars, a quirky cutscene that signals the end of Burns’ transit empire.

Missions mode strings together ten timed challenges across five locales, from shielding Krusty’s fan club to sneaking Homer to work, rewarding you with Homer’s own car for Road Rage. A two‑player split screen pits friends against each other for the same fares, and seasonal date settings sprinkle in holiday‑themed rides like Christmas‑Apu or New‑Year’s Krusty.

Storyline

In The Simpsons Road Rage, Mr. Burns has bought every transit system in Springfield and turned the city’s buses into radioactive hazards. Because the public transport is now dangerous, the townsfolk are forced to rely on their own cars to get around. Players must race through the streets, collecting cash to pay back Burns and fund the removal of his toxic buses. When all locations and characters are unlocked and the player reaches one million dollars in earnings, the transit empire collapses and a special cutscene shows Springfield returning to normal.
