Spongebob SquarePants is back with another exciting undersea adventure!

User Rating: 7.2 | The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie GBA
you're in search of a video game that will keep you occupied with lots to do and accomplish, then The Spongebob Squarepants Movie is the game for you. Packed with loads of underwater adventure, the game follows Spongebob and his starfish buddy Patrick as they endeavor to save the town from King Neptune's crown-snatching nemesis. The game is full of colorful boards with lots of items to collect, like golden clam shells, hot fudge sundaes, water buckets and floating mustaches, all which help Spongebob and Patrick fight off the enemies that they come across. There are plenty of enemies to fight, including a whole cast of characters from the popular movie and television show. Spongebob and Patrick each boast their own special moves that help them get through the boards. Spongebob can fill with water and then blow bubbles at enemies, while Patrick can make free-falling a whole lot more pleasant with his parachute shorts.

In terms of difficulty, The Spongebob Squarepants Movie is extremely easy to play. There are a few difficult spots however, where you have to test out all of Spongebob's moves in order to figure out which one will help you get through. For example, in the very first level, you come upon a stack of bricks that you can't get past, and no other way to go. It took a while to figure out that you have to press the R button on the Game Boy Advance to get Spongebob and Patrick on their marks and ready to run really fast through the bricks. After you master that, however, the controls are simple and easy.

The game looks nice, as the undersea environment is colorful and the worlds Spongebob must travel through are huge. There is often more than one way to go, so you can pick and choose your route and find different enemies and things to collect on each. The music has a tropical feel to it, and a happy tune plays throughout the game. The characters don't really have voices (all of their dialogue is written for the player to read) but Spongebob does make a funny "oof" noise each time he jumps.

The Spongebob Squarepants Movie is an entertaining choice for Spongebob fans as well as people who have never seen the show before. The game enjoyable and fairly easy, and will keep you busy for hours.
