The second mobile Simpsons game, Itchy and Scratchy Land, was released in 2009.  The 2.5D adventure game is based on the classic “Itchy and Scratchy Land” episode from season 6 of the series.  The goal is to save the theme park from the evil robot versions of the beloved fictional characters.  The gameplay is similar if not exactly the same as Minutes to Meltdown but offers Marge, Bart, and Lisa as playable characters.  Considered a sequel to the first mobile game reception for Itchy and Scratchy Land was mostly negative calling the game unoriginal and challenging to control.
