Unlocking Springfield's Secrets: A Comprehensive Guide to Fortnite's Hidden Simpsons Gags

11/04/2025

This comprehensive guide delves into the hidden Easter eggs sprinkled throughout the Springfield Island in the Fortnite Simpsons mini-season. Players are tasked with uncovering and completing a dozen unique gags, each drawing inspiration from the beloved animated series. This article provides a detailed walkthrough for each challenge, offering precise locations and interaction methods to help players successfully complete this milestone quest, even addressing known in-game issues that might affect progress.

The Springfield Nuclear Power Plant hosts the first hidden gag, 'Release the Hounds.' Players must venture to Mr. Burns' fourth-floor office in the southern building. There, interacting with a distinctive red button on the desk triggers the gag, unleashing a memorable Simpsons moment. Moving to Evergreen Terrace, the iconic Simpsons' couch awaits. While the objective is to simply sit on it, a current bug renders players invulnerable, temporarily disabling this quest. Updates will follow once this technical issue is resolved. Also in Evergreen Terrace, the 'Steamed Ham' gag requires players to collect a hamburger-like item, often found in kitchens or dining rooms, particularly in the Simpsons' own home or Ned Flanders' residence. Just south of Evergreen Terrace, in the Springfield Tire Yard, players can 'Find Mr. Sparkle' by digging up a dirt pile in the southwestern corner, revealing the well-known dishwashing detergent. East of Evergreen Terrace, players can 'Jump the Springfield Gorge' by driving a vehicle off a specific ramp. While a car might spawn there, it's advisable to find one nearby and use a boost for a more dramatic jump. In the heart of Springfield Town Square, players can 'Knock the Jebediah Springfield Statue's Head Off' by attacking it with a pickaxe or weapon. This particular gag can only be completed once per game, making early engagement crucial.

For those looking to 'Prank Call Moe,' two locations offer the opportunity: Moe's bar in Springfield Town Square or a payphone at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. Interacting with either phone successfully completes the gag. In the garden east of Burns Manor, players can 'Step on a Rake.' This gag can be a bit glitchy, but the abundance of rakes in the designated building ensures eventual success. The 'Dislodge the Lard Lad Donut' gag is straightforward: head to the Donut District and destroy the colossal Lard Lad Donuts statue using a pickaxe or weapon. To 'Catch Blinky,' a three-eyed fish, players can visit any fishing spot on Springfield Island, with the lake near Kamp Krusty being a prime location due to its numerous fishing spots. Lastly, the 'Spray Springfield' gag can be completed by emoting at various spraycan icon locations scattered across the island, including the Kwik-E-Marts, Burns Manor steps, Springfield Town Hall, and Springfield Police Station. The most challenging gag, 'Bring the Haw Haw Humiliation,' involves defeating one of three bosses: Evil Homer, Witch Marge, or Krusty the Clown. With 27 potential spawn locations and no fixed spots, players must patrol the map by car and look for boss icons on their minimap. Although the bosses aren't overly difficult, locating them is the main hurdle to overcome.

The intricate design of these challenges highlights a delightful integration of the Simpsons universe into Fortnite. Each gag offers a unique nod to the classic show, inviting players to relive iconic moments and explore the vibrant Springfield Island. Despite some minor technical hitches, the variety and creativity of these hidden objectives make for an engaging and rewarding experience for fans of both franchises.
