Mob Rules
Start this mission with Marge and Lisa.
Destroy 3 Grand Theft Scratchy floats
You'll learn that Marge's super power is the ability to gather Mobs. Follow the on-screen instructions for pulling out and using the Megaphone. Recruit Flanders and then destroy the nearby Float by targeting it and hitting the Megaphone button. This essentially orders your Mob, in this case, Flanders, to destroy what you targeted.
Recruit Dr. Hibbert and Ms. Krabappel. Order your Mob to destroy the next float. Recruit Lenny, Carl, and Prof. Frink. Destroy the final Float.
Marge Mobs - If you have several people in your Mob you can assign any number of them to attack, say, a float. To do so, pull out the Megaphone, target the float, and then tap the Megaphone button. Each time you tap it you'll assign one person to the target. You can see the count on the screen.
This allows you to split up your Mob to send a few people to do "x" while the other people can do "y".
|
Block the fire hydrant
Destroying the third float will reveal a tire jump. Switch to Lisa and use it to jump up to the top of the building where you'll find a Buddha. Use Hand of Buddha to move the gray crate (Grand Theft Scratchy crate) in front of the fire hydrant to block the water.
Destroy 2 Grand Theft Scratchy floats
Send your Mob to do the dirty work.
Find and destroy 2 billboards
To cross over to the next building you'll need to use the Hand of Buddha, climb the ladder to it, and place each of the two Itchy/Scratchy planks to form a bridge across the street.
Cross the bridge and locate the crack in the wall on the left. Position yourself so that you can target the crack, and then assign two Mob members to it. Head through and recruit Moe and Cletus.
Now at the parking garage, use the tire spring to get Lisa up to the Buddha. Use it to move the cars blocking the ramp leading to the upper level of the garage.
Head up the parking ramp to get up to the first Billboard. Wait for your Mob to catch up to you and then have them take it out. Cross over the fallen Billboard and you'll see the electrified, second Billboard. To the left of it is a
Maggie Port. Go up to it and hit the "Deploy Maggie" button. Guide Maggie to the red button to de-electrify the Billboard and then take it down using your Mob.
Destroy 3 Grand Theft Scratchy floats
Bring your Mob over to the gray platform and use the Megaphone to make them "Wait" on it. Switch to Lisa and use the Hand of Buddha to lift the blue cylinder, causing the elevator platform to go down. Use your Mob to destroy the three floats. If the police scare any of your Mob into not listening to you anymore, simply recruit them again.
Get to Town Square
As Lisa, use the tire jump on the left side of the area and then jump to the building to the left to find a Buddha. Use Hand of Buddha to lift each of the three blocks (triangle, square, circle) and drop them in their cutouts in the yellow brick area. Switch back to Marge and use the Mob to "build" each of the tree blocks into a ramp.
Recruit Grandpa, Otto, and Apu and then use the Mob to "build" scaffolds out of the block under the Buddha statue. Switch to Lisa and move the gray crate to block the nearby fire hydrant. Head past and use the Mob to break through the cracked wall of the jail. Recruit Snake.
Destroy the Grand Theft Scratchy statue
Recruit anybody else that you see in the Town Square and assign them as best as you can to the statue. Switch to Lisa and use her to defend the Mob at the statue. If you start to see your Mob break up, re-recruit them and then once again use Lisa for protection.
Alternatively, you can use Lisa and the Hand of Buddha to the right of the entrance to the Courthouse to drop cars onto the oncoming riot officers.
Turn up the heat on Quimby
After the statue is destroyed, jump up the rubble of the City Hall and send Maggie into the Maggie Port. Crawl to each of the three wheels and turn them.

Time Trial Tips

Find Professor Frink
Cross the street and enter the orange/red light.
Enter the Cheatrix
You'll automatically start this mission as Bart and Lisa.
Follow the Ape
Near where you start is the
Bartman Grapple. Look to the lower left of the screen to see the button that activates it. Head to the edge of the platform and shoot the Grapple which will latch on to a hook and drop you on the next platform.
To clear the large gap between you and the next platform, Grapple and Grapple again when you drop from the first Grapple.
Operate the lever to open the green warp pipe for Lisa. Switch to her and use the pipe. Step on the pressure plates and then jump into the warp pipe.
Hop down onto the conveyor belt and then use the Grapple to get up to the ledge on the left. Operate the lever. Use the spring pad to get up to the next lever and activate it.
|
Employees Only elevators - Press the red button on these elevators so that enemies can't regenerate from them.
|
Across from the second elevator, use the Grapple to get up to a lever. Activate it to cause the coin platform below to rotate. Switch to Lisa and use the coin platform to get to the ladder to get up to the lever platform. Here there is a Buddha.
Use Hand of Buddha to pick up and drop the blue gears into place so that the far gear spins, causing the platforms at the end to move up and down.
Use the now accessible platforms to go down the warp pipe.
Get to the next teleport pipe
Go up the shining gray column on the left and jump up to its ledge. Shimmy around the ledge to get to the next platform.
Activate the pressure plates to open the warp pipe and then go down it.
Find the exit pipe
After beating up Simpsons Ryu, go to the end of the conveyor belt and jump to the vertical wire. Rotate and jump to the platform. Head up to the Buddha statue and use the Hand of Buddha on each of the two elbow pipes coming out of the blood vats. This will reveal two bridge pieces. Place them to form a bridge across the vats.
Cross and make your way up to the elevator (press the button) and then locate
Lisa's Super Saxophone, which causes stunned enemies to attack each other. This will also raise a yellow/black pole for you to climb. Do so, jump from it to the blue roof, and then fall down to the next conveyor belt.
Continue forward and for the next few areas simply seal off elevators as quickly as possible and activate levers as you get to them. You'll soon arrive at another warp pipe. Go down.
Get to the next teleport pipe
As Bart, use the spring pad to get up to the upper platform. Target and then shoot the sad Sonic with the Slingshot. This cuts off the flow of green goo below. Hop back down and go to the next warp pipe.
Follow the Ape
You'll be in the Marketing Machine area. Jump to the black/yellow poles and make your way up. Use the gray ledge to shimmy around to the spring pad. On the platform with the ladder going down, switch to Lisa.
Drop down and grab the Comic Book Girl super power icon and start kicking some butt as you make your way to the two elevators (one to the right and one in front of you) to shut them down. Then, use the Super Saxophone power to make all of the nearby enemies attack each other.
NOTE: Please read the following very carefully. You need to position Bart in the correct place and then use Lisa to move the red pinchers (grapple points) into position for Bart to use them.
When things are calm (no enemies), locate the sparking circuitry on the left wall which Bartman can climb. You have to be quick, but you can climb this without getting shocked. To climb faster, jump as you're climbing.
At the top, deactivate the elevator, navigate the EA stamps (large stamping hammers), and jump to and wait on the platform on the conveyor belt.
Switch to Lisa. Climb the ladder to the platform with the Buddha. You need to move each of the towers so that Bart can use the grapple points (the red pinchers) to get to the far end.
Place one of the red cross squares (large white square with red cross surrounded by a circle painted on it) on the tower on the left (which is where it should be upon starting) and the other one on the tower nearest to you.
Switch back to Bart and Grapple to each of the two grapple points you just made.
Switch back to Lisa and move the red cross on the left tower to the right tower.
Switch back to Bart and Grapple so that you're on the right side tower.
See where we're going with this? Switch back to Lisa and move the red cross from the near tower to the far (back right) tower.
Switch back to Bart, Grapple to the far tower, and then Glide down to the platform with the lever. Activate it to open up two pressure plates in the floor.
Step on the pressure plates to open the warp pipe. Go down it.
Drain the goo and confront the Ape
As Bart, spring pad to the zip line, cross and activate the lever to open the warp pipe for Lisa. Switch to Lisa and have her enter it. Go up to the Buddha statue to unlock
Lisa's Power Flick which allows you to flick enemies and send them flying.
In Buddha Hand mode, wait for a football player to exit the elevator and then flick him through the goal post to hit the red button. This will drain the goo and reveal a warp pipe. Enter it.
Defeat the Ape
You need to flick the ape when he comes to the edge. To get him to the edge you need to antagonize him by flicking enemies in his direction. Therefore, use the Hand of Buddha to flick any enemies that you see up onto the platform. Don't worry so much about accuracy as keeping enemies away from you. Anytime that you see the Ape come to the edge, flick him. Do this three times to defeat him.
Note, if you get knocked off of the Buddha, use the Super Saxophone to quickly dispose of them (they attack each other that way, remember?).
You'll unlock
Helium Homer. Use helium tanks to gain altitude.
Your family's health has increased.

- Climb the yellow/black pole to the roof. Look to the left to see the coupon at the end of a conveyor belt.
- Hop onto the pipe near the blood stream/channel. Head to the blue roof.
