Level Information
|
"Medal of Homer" is the thirteenth level of The Simpsons Game. To open the door of the creator's mansion, the Simpsons have to get the four keycards in the four worlds created by the creator. The third portal takes Homer and Bart to the World War II, with younger Abraham and Mr. Burns.
Contents
Description
After completing the "Bargain Bin" level, four new levels unlock at the Game Hub. While you can choose any order, the story leads to this level next. It's the first level where Bart can use his wrist rocket for more range and damage, and his super-cape to glide further for a longer time. The level is split into three areas, each set in a different location.
Plot
Bart and Homer are sent back to World War II, where they meet a young Grampa and Mr. Burns in the army. Sergeant Simpson informs Homer and Bart about their mission: Germany plans to attack the French city of St. de Capitulons, which supplies snails to the French Army. Homer and Bart parachute into the city, where they see Üter throw a rock at a window, causing the French to surrender with white flags. Abe and Burns order them to remove the surrender flags scattered around the town. Private Burns suggests looting French paintings "for safekeeping". After collecting all the flags, Homer and Bart must escort a truck carrying the paintings through Kasserine Pass filled with tanks and mines. After safely escorting the truck, they learn Burns has stolen the paintings and taken them to his aircraft carrier, the U.S.S Reel Crazy. The Hellfish squad provides air support while Homer and Bart board the ship. Homer uses C4 explosives to destroy rocket launchers, and Bart uses air currents to reach Burns' platform and defeat him. Back in St. De Capitulons, the French thank Homer and Bart for returning the paintings, and one even kisses Homer, tickling him with his moustache. Bart asks Homer if he can drink wine like the other kids, but Homer refuses. They later discover the Hellfish keycard hidden behind one of the paintings.
Gameplay
Xbox 360/PS3 Version
The French are ready to surrender, with white flags everywhere. Your goal is to remove all the white flags, which are mostly on buildings but citizens carry some. To find the flags, press Back and Y to open the map. Start as Bart and collect flags on the left, then move to the right side of the village, focusing on the rooftops. You can get 22 out of 24 flags in the village as Bart. The last two flags are at the church—one by the waterwheel and the other on top of the steeple.
In Kasserine Pass, start by destroying the landmines and shooting the turrets and tanks ahead using Bart’s slingshot or Homer’s Gummi form. Stay ahead of the truck and take out the weapons to keep it safe. If you run out of ammo, switch to Bart or break crates for more. (Xbox 360/PS3 version only)
On the U.S.S Reel Crazy, make your way from the deck to the crow’s nest. Use Bartman’s grapple to reach the lever, making sure Homer is on the orange boat. Homer plants C4 on steel doors, and Bart glides up using updrafts created by explosions. Kick down life preservers for Homer as you go. Use C4 to destroy turret guns, then climb nets and fight through sailors to advance. Continue using C4 and updrafts to navigate, kick down life preservers for Homer, and clear turret guns. Eventually, Bart reaches level D-5, and Homer follows by blowing doors and pipes. Finally, use the helium tank to float Homer up to the crow’s nest. Bart uses updrafts to reach Burns. Beat Burns, collect the paintings, and grab the keycard. Mission complete!
Wii/PS2/PSP Version
The first area, St. De Capitulons, is mostly the same, but you need to collect 20 flags instead of 24, and some flags are in different spots:
- After the cutscene, turn left to grab the first flag.
- Turn left and look up for the second flag on a balcony. Jump to reach it.
- Off the balcony, look down to find the third flag near a door by a bread barrel.
- Head left to find platforms leading to the fourth flag.
- Jump under the bridge nearby and break debris with Homer Ball to get the fifth flag.
- Look for a balcony nearby with the sixth flag and grapple with Bart to reach it.
- From the rooftop, look down for the seventh flag.
- Use awnings to reach a balcony for the eighth flag.
- Glide with Bart to the chimney, then to a balcony for the ninth flag.
- Break debris under a bridge with Homer Ball to find the tenth flag.
- Glide to another rooftop for the eleventh flag.
- Ride the smoke current to a high balcony for the twelfth flag.
- Use a zipline to reach the thirteenth flag.
- Jump to a rooftop, grab the fourteenth flag.
- On the back side of a platform, grab the fifteenth flag.
- Use a cow as a platform to get the sixteenth flag.
- Use ramps with Homer to reach the seventeenth flag.
- Climb ivy to grab the eighteenth flag on a rooftop.
- Use a helium tank to float up to a high balcony for the nineteenth flag.
- Destroy debris under a bridge to find the final flag.
This version for some reason cuts out the Kasserine Pass section, so it skips to Burns' aircraft carrier. Move across the catwalk, position Homer on the boat, and use Bart to grapple across a gap. Pull the lever to bring the boat over. Homer plants C4 to destroy doors and Bart shoots targets to reveal climbing poles. Continue planting C4 and riding air currents to reach higher levels. Keep progressing by destroying obstacles, planting C4, and using air currents to glide. Bart can pull levers to drop ladders for Homer. Eventually, use helium tanks to reach higher areas and glide across gaps. Finally, use Bart's abilities to reach Private Burns, ending the level.
Things To Do

Collectibles
Medal of Homer characters
- Homer: Homer is one of the playable characters, he can jump, kick, burp, turn into Homer Ball, "Heli-Homer", "Gumi-Homer" (only Xbox version) and "Lava-Homer" (only Xbox version). This is the only level in which he can use C4 explosives, at the ship part.
- Bart: Bart is one of the playable characters, he can jump, kick, use his wrist rocket, open his cape to release bats and turn into Bartman to glade, climb walls and ziplines and grapple.
- Üter Zorker: he throws a rock to a window in St. de Capitulons.
- Abraham Simpson: he is the leader of the missions and shows Homer and Bart classified stuff like blueprints, photos and medals.
- Mr. Burns: he is Abraham's partner but later steals the valorous French paintings. Bart then defeats him on his ship.
- French people: they are running in St. de Capitulons and only attack you if you attack them. One of them is a woman and the other two are men (those from "The Crepes of Wrath").
- Smithers: enemies in the ship. They are the Medal of Homer versions of Smithers and attack you with plungers.
Clichés
Comic Book Guy's video game clichés
- Wooden Crate: (only PS2 version) destroy the box at the beginning of the level to get this cliché. "Ah, the crate. As seen in everything."
- Explosive Barrel: (only PS2 version) when destroying one of the explosive barrels at the ship. "The explosive barrel, frustrating AND hackneyed."
- Trampolines: (only Xbox version) after bouncing off one of the awnings at St. de Capitulons. "Trampolines. Where have those been before? Oh right, everywhere."
- Escort Mission: (only Xbox version) get to the Africa area.
Trivia
- The name of this level is a reference to the video game "Medal of Honor".
- There are some differences in each version.
- French people carry flags only in the Xbox version.
- In the PS2 version, there are only two areas: the city and the ship. Africa is only in the Xbox version.
- In the PS2 version, you just have to get to Burns' platform to complete the level. In the Xbox version, you have to defeat him.
