When it works too Video games based on films Or television programs, you can certainly do much better than “Family Guy Online”, a short-lived MMORPG game from 2012. The game enabled you to create your own character and go through quahog and important tasks for the characters like “Beat” To do “Up Chris’ Bully” or “Help with Quagmire in a date”.
That may not sound so exciting for them and it didn’t sound so exciting for players at that time. Therefore, the game was never popular enough to justify the beta phase. After only eight months, the developers announced that they would close the game. The game was no longer until January 2013; The next thing you can play is to see old walkthrough videos on YouTube:

If I had to advise why the game was never started on the gameplay that I saw, I would say that the game for fans outside the show has little attraction. You don’t have to be a fan of “The Simpsons” to appreciate the magic that was the 2003 game. About this “family type” center game. Very few skills or strategies are required to perform one of the tasks. To win the fight against Chris’ Bully, for example, all you have to do is click on the bully and click the button below. As long as you can, you have it.
When it comes to video games, ‘The Simpsons’ rules
Unfortunately, “Family Guy Online” just felt too much for a lazy money grave to be a success. There were only a few coherent plot lines, which instead the story of the game only decided on a number of references to the show. Her price for completing a task was often that you could watch a clip from the show. However, if you want to watch clips “Family Guy”, you can already organize the show on the show at any time. The game was an ad for the show first and secondly a playable game.
In the meantime, “The Simpsons” published another video game for the same, A mobile name “Tapped Out” in which users were allowed to design their own city. This game is described in the ads as “addicted to life” and is a lot of fun for everyone who is looking for a steady supply of dopamine boosts (even too much fun). I started playing the game in the high school and had to stop after a few weeks because it took all my free time. In the meantime, players will still talk about this game today as if it were an addictive drug.
“I loved this game so much that I had to stop the cold turkey.” wrote a redditor In the “Simpsons” Subreddit. “I woke up in the middle of the night during the special events to make sure I got all collector’s pieces. It used me to use the printer.”
“Tapped Out” lasted over a decade before the developers, EA Mobile, closed it in January 2025, and many of his players still fight with the news. The game of the game, That has 74,000 usersIs now full of contributions that complain about the game switching down of the game and wonder if there is a possibility of how it could come back. But like “The Simpsons: Hit & Run” it seems as if “Tapped Out” is finally gone.
It was sad to see that both most important “Simpsons” video games go, but both had a massive influence, much greater than the “Family Guy” RPG could ever dream. Not too much to store too much for “family member” Not as good as “the Simpsons” not to be so good, But man, you have to know that you know that the predominance of the “Simpsons” goes beyond television. And not to give an insult to injuries, but the “South Park” games are also consistently fantastic.
