Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)As I've seen "Scene It?"s made for Seinfeld and Harry Potter, I always wondered how there couldn't be Scene It? for the Simpsons. So I just about crapped myself when I saw this on Amazon. I should also include that the one amazon sells is the Deluxe Edition and stores mostly sell standard. They cost the same, but the Deluxe has an extra 30 trivia cards, 6 more buzz cards, and the pieces and dice are all a lot better crafted. Make sure to buy the Deluxe.
Anyways, the game is just like any other Scene It with games using sound clips (where you guess which character is talking), sketches to guess a character, scrambled images of characters and scenes, and most importantly, clips to watch where you either have to finish the line or answer a question. The amount of All Plays in the game is astounding. I've played through at least 10 full games and, while I do see repeats more and more, there are always still new questions after clips or new images unscrambling. Not to mention tons of trivia cards. The only things that are really limited are the 16 Buzz Cards (10 in the standard edition), which are like Chance cards. You won't go through 10 Buzz cards in a single game, but they get old pretty quick once you lap through them.
The difficulty has a big range from incredibly easy questions, such as: after playing a clip of Homer jumping Springfield Gorge, it asks "What Springfield landmark is Homer jumping?". Stuff that you can get without the clip or having watched the simpsons for ten years. There are also some impossible trivia questions, asking about random guest stars from season 8 that you never had any idea had a part in the Simpsons. But I did have to rate this game a 5 in educational value, since due to these kinds of questions, I now know Professor Frink's first name and what character Edward Norton played on the Simpsons.
You do, however, have to, at the bare minimum, have a working memory of character names to have a chance at winning the game. So as long as you know who Kent Brockman or Rod Flanders are, you should be fine for several of the questions. I assume most looking at this product, though, are really into the Simpsons and that shouldn't be a problem for.
I honestly have no hesitation giving this Scene It 5 stars. It is probably my favorite Simpsons toy and I have thoroughly enjoyed every time I've set it up to play. Questions are heavily weighted towards the first 10 seasons, but do occasionally have question about episodes as recent as Season 20. Even a moderate Simpsons fan can enjoy the game immensely.
