The Simpsons: Bart vs. the World is a side-scrolling platformer that combines smaller games from different genres. In each stage, Bart must navigate through the area, collecting items such as firecrackers for self-defense and squishees to restore health. By grabbing a cape, Bart can become his superhero alter-ego Bartman and fly for a limited time. The main items in each stage are Krusty brand souvenirs. There is one in each stage, and Bart must find them all to get the best ending. There are also several mini-games in each area, such as a card game and a trivia game based on events from the current episodes.

Story

In Krusty the Clown Show, Bart Simpson wins the opportunity to participate in a scavenger hunt around the world. However, the contest has been rigged by Smithers, Mr. Burns' assistant, so that Burns can get rid of the Simpson family because they have caused him a lot of trouble over the years. Burns sends his agents and other family members to take care of the Simpsons during the scavenger hunt. Bart travels through different places in the real world collecting items, with the other Simpsons family members showing up from time to time.
