Bargain Bin is the tenth level of The Simpsons Game. The Simpsons are transported to the game engine, where Will Wright, a video game creator, wants to destroy older version of the Simpsons.
Description
The playable characters of this level are Homer and Bart. It is one of the timed levels and the only one without any enemies.
Plot
The alien invasion continues, but there are no more upgrades for the Simpsons powers, so Bart and Lisa head inside the house to use another way of cheating: internet. Bart founds a site for The Simpsons Game but just as he is about to say what they are supposed to do, Homer pushes him to play Solitaire. He opens the disc plate to put his beer on it, but when it closes itself, the beer drops into the keyboard, which produces a short-circuit that transports the Simpsons to a factory-looking place. Lisa says it is the game engine. Then, Will Wright, the creator of the Sims, appears and tells them his latest release, "Sims Sandwich", drove him mad, so he spends his time in that place destroying old video games, one of which is "Scape from Krusty's Island", and its characters are old, pixelated versions of the Simpsons. Homer and Bart go to rescue them before the game reaches the incinerator. They jump on several paths and platforms solving puzzles and eventually reach a lever that puts the incinerator off. Homer and Bart enter an elevator while Will Wright says some EA nerds caused this.
The elevator takes Homer, Bart, Lisa and Marge up to another section of the engine, above the previous one, but this has a red carpet all over the floor, big stairways on each side that connect to a door with a mansion behind it, tubes transporting money to the mansion, posters of games everywhere and five portals with pictures of the Simpsons, four of which transport to some other worlds and one to Springfield. The real Simpsons meet their pixelated counterparts, who tell them that to stop the aliens from invading Springfield, they will have to talk to the creator. He lives in the mansion and created all the worlds. To open the door, they have to find the four keycards, which are in the four worlds. The Simpsons then talk to Professor Frink to receive new powers. Homer gets the "Gumi-Homer" power; Bart gets the "super-slingshot" and the "super Bartman cape"; Lisa gets the "Buddha's thunder" and Marge gets the "mega-megaphone".
Bargain Bin characters

- Bart: Bart is one of the playable characters, he can jump, kick, use his slingshot and turn into Bartman to glade and grapple. He can't open his cape to release bats nor turn into "Robo-Bart" as there are not any power balls nor invincibility items.
- Will Wright: he floats on a green diamond following Homer and Bart. He says angry comments when they solve a puzzle.

Trivia
- Will Wright floats on a "Sim's Diamond".
- The level ends after the incinerator is put off. After the cutscene, Homer and Lisa can be played in the modern part of the game engine and, to proceed, they have to talk to Professor Frink to get their new powers. They have to take the Sim Diamond that Frink launches so their corresponding items appear. Homer has to take the gumi to become Gumi-Homer and attack the football players, while Lisa has to step on the Buddha's statue and use the Buddha's Hand thunder to defeat the football players. Bart and Marge get their powers automatically.
