"Around the World in 80 Bites" is the third level in The Simpsons Game. In this level, you play as Bart and Homer trying to win a Duff food competition.

Description[edit]

In this level, Homer can use all his "Homer Ball" powers, while Bart helps him by opening gates to areas Homer can't reach. The level is set at the Duff Brewery, which is decorated as different countries like Australia, China, Mexico, Germany, France, Scotland, Italy, and America, with Duffman narrating. It's the first timed level, and more time is added as you reach each country. This is also the only level where enemies return after being knocked out.

Synopsis[edit]

"Homer and Bart enter an eating contest sponsored by Duff Beer."


Plot[edit]

The Chocolate Statue of Liberty

Homer competes in a Duff food competition at the Duff Brewery with Bart's help. They race against other Springfield citizens, and the race starts in China. Homer uses his Homer Ball power to jump to Australia, then Mexico, where he destroys a giant taco to reach Germany. In France, Groundskeeper Willie closes a gate to Scotland, so Bart climbs the "Eiffel Tower" and opens it. In Scotland, Homer destroys Stonehenge to make a bridge to bagpipes that launch Bart to another gate, leading to Italy. Homer then destroys a giant meatball, using a noodle to climb the "Coliseum." Bart crosses the San Francisco Bridge, glides to a gate, and opens it to America. In America, Homer destroys the "Chocolate Statue of Liberty" with three hits as Homer Ball, which drops a super hamburger. After Homer eats it, Duffman announces him as the winner. Moe congratulates Homer, but Homer accidentally bites off Moe's hand. The former champion, Akira Kurosawa, gives Homer the championship belt, revealing he won by dipping food in milk. The losers are left to clean up the mess.
