  1. Having a longer game-time, plus some fun mini-games, would have been better, but this is still a nicely designed game.

    Simple enough for young players to enjoy, but older SpongeBob fans will like it, too. [Mar 2003, p.136]
  3. Amusing and well worth it if you love SpongeBob SquarePants and enjoy a run-around-collecting-items type of game.
  4. I usually love kid's games, but this one was an exercise in monotony. I really had no desire to keep going.

From an objective perspective, this game has pretty bad graphics and a lazy soundtrack. But I still enjoyed my time with RotFD. It is up there with some of the best Spongebob games; a very underrated video game series I might add. I had fun searching out every collectable and doing things for every character of Spongebob I know and love. The worlds are all fun to explore and even backtrack to for some missions. And the voice acting is pretty solid, as it's done by the actual voice actors of the characters. Overall, this game is a fun little adventure to explore. However, it's not too great by today's standards. JUST GET THE GAMECUBE VERSION, NOT THE PS2 ONE. Expand

    It is not the best experience of all time. The game first dose not look good. Lame quests, and just drags on. Would not recommend.

The graphics are horrendous. Models are uncanny and dead-eyed, frequent pop-in, poorly timed sound effects, and extremely repetitive music with just 9 songs in total. The controls are far too slippery and unresponsive, the loading times are unbearable, and the fact that the PS2 version of this game contained a glitch where the game would randomly crash on loading screens is inexcusable. Big Sky Interactive was clearly on their deathbed when they made this, and it shows. Expand

    I give this game a 0 out of 10 for multiple reasons.
    #1: It has Nintendo 64-styled graphics that don't even look like the graphics of a GameCube or PlayStation 2 game.
    #2: It only has 9 songs.
    #3: Because the game only has 9 songs, most of the music repeats, and it gets extremely annoying.
    #4: All of the costumes suck, except for the Fishing Gear costume.
    #5: You have to get all of the collectibles in order to unlock the final boss.
    #6: There is only one boss in the game.
    #7: The only boss in this game is way too easy.
    #8: The narrator is very creepy and sounds nothing like the one on the show.
    #9: The levels are intolerable.
    #10: The checkliist makes the game feel like a chore.
    #11: It has sluggish controls.
    #12: It has too many fetch quests.
    #13: Speaking of fetch quests, they can be tedious.
    #14: The gameplay is simplistic.
    #15: It caused Big Sky Entertainment to go out of business.
    #16: Frequent and obnoxious loading times.
    #17: There are only 7 levels in the game.
    Overall, this is one of the worst games ever.
