Great game! Halloween specials are the best! Instead of a boss, the end of each level features a nice challenge. Since you have to get the ball into the hole to complete the level, the game adds a hindrance you must overcome. The first level features a giant head of Krusty the Clown.

Krusty's tongue rolls in and out of his mouth and you must time your putt just right so that the ball rolls onto the tongue and then into Krusty's mouth, completing the course. In the graveyard level, the Grim Reaper holds his scythe in the hole, raising and lowering it at predetermined intervals and you must putt the ball into the hole, underneath the handle of the scythe. Another features a ramp that you must use to get the ball up onto a giant shoe. Putting too hard will cause the ball to ricochet back, and even go past Scratchy.

If you are too light on the putt and the ball gets lodged between the shoe and ramp. It takes a lot of precise timing and patience to get the putt just right. As you traverse your way through the obstacle laden course, the biggest impediment to progress is the berserk Itchy, hell-bent on Scratchicide. Within every level, Itchy is placed at sporadic points and will come charging at Scratchy with various weapons. Aside from the previously mentioned chainsaw, Itchy has a vast array of deadly weapons such as a sizable bazooka, a horrifying hatchet, a massive butcher knife, and explosive grenades.

Thankfully, there are other weapons sprinkled throughout each stage that you can snag as offensive firepower against the murderous mouse. Usually in corners and other out of the way places, Scratchy can find weapons of his own. In addition to his putter, which he has on him at all times, Scratchy can use flying boomerangs, decapitation inducing baseball bats, gigantic wooden mallets, and explosive grenades of his own to help prevent his own untimely demise.

Each weapon, aside from the putter, is limited to six units per pickup, but you can hold an unlimited number of weapons, so long as they are available on the level. After you change to a new hole, you lose all accumulated weapons and must collect new ones. Gratefully, they are plentiful and it is rare to find yourself down to only the perilous putter to defend yourself. An aspect that makes this game a little easier is that Itchy will appear in the exact same place, with the exact same weapons every time you play.

Forgetting the golf aspect of the game for a moment and forging ahead to clear the path is always a good idea, so you can putt unencumbered. There is nothing worse than having Itchy charge at you unexpectedly while in putting mode.

You can cancel out of the stance and go after him, but it is an extra button press that is best if it can be avoided. For all the prodigious fun that this game brings the player, there are a couple of characteristics that are rage inducing. When you enter putting mode, a small meter in the form of a bar appears on the bottom of the screen. When you press the B button, the meter begins to fill very rapidly.

It goes even faster in the last quarter of the bar, and will begin to drain just as fast. This makes it difficult to get your full strength into a putt.

Even worse is when Itchy comes charging at you in the middle of the meter filling. When you try to cancel out and go after him, more likely than not you end up putting the ball a couple inches rather than across the screen.

Unfortunately, much like many other poor attempts at skateboarding games, it comes across more like a cheap imitation than a proper game in its own right. With that in mind, it reaches only slightly higher than The Simpsons Wrestling with a score of Something interesting about Simpsons games is that most of them tend to have ports on nearly every console imaginable.

Simpsons Skateboarding and Simpsons Wrestling were both Playstation exclusives. Unfortunately, this version of the game is substantially worse. As a result, it has an astonishingly lower score than the rest of the ports at Alternate to nearly any other Simpsons game is the literal Simpsons Game: an action-adventure platformer where The Simpsons end up exploring various worlds and video game parodies throughout an oddly fantastical adventure.

The Wii version, however, is widely considered the inferior version of this strange game. The game itself is mostly the same, but poorer graphics and distracting controls make it a much duller experience. This game is just Crazy Taxi with Simpsons characters, but because of its arcade-style, it ends up being far more entertaining than other Simpsons games.

There are a few different scores across different consoles, but the 67 is a solid representative for the general rating of this game. Simpsons games are especially rare nowadays, but one of the most recent is easily the most dissimilar to any of these listed.
