    It's a great game, i lke it so much, mix several types of genres, like race, plataform, shooter, and other things, the levels are very well done, the graphics is good, you get used to the control very easily and can customize the characters, the music of the game is awesome, the gameplay is very good, but i miss mr. krabs and squidward in this game, sandy too, but she makes only a cameo inIt's a great game, i lke it so much, mix several types of genres, like race, plataform, shooter, and other things, the levels are very well done, the graphics is good, you get used to the control very easily and can customize the characters, the music of the game is awesome, the gameplay is very good, but i miss mr. krabs and squidward in this game, sandy too, but she makes only a cameo in the background of plankton's first level, but other than that, it's an incredible game… Expand

    I really don't think the game is bad, but there are some flaws, it's way too long while loading, the 480i resolution makes me think i have double vision, there isn't really much to do after you beat the PS2 version of the game, and why on the PS2? However, I give this game a 8/10, the Music, The Story, The Gameplay, and overall enjoyability makes me give that score.

    I think this game is much more underrated than everyone makes it out to be. However, I just don’t think it’s as good as some of the other spongebob games out there. It’s story is the main selling point for me, I just love the originality and wackiness of it. However, some times I feel like it could’ve been executed a bit better with some more characters instead of only 3 to play as.

However, some times I feel like it could’ve been executed a bit better with some more characters instead of only 3 to play as. The racing system towards the end of the game and the earlier parts are just weird for me where you still win even if your opponent laps you. There’s also a time limit on the races which resets when you hit a checkpoint which is also just odd. Other than these small issues, the gameplay itself is creative with its enemies. However sometimes it can get a bit repetitive. Overall, it’s a fun game that is a classic, however I wouldn’t play it in one sitting as it can get repetitive on certain levels, especially during the plankton segments.… Expand

    Some years ago, a friend gave me a copy of SpongeBob SquarePants: Creature From The Krusty Krab with the words: You won´t believe how good this game is! I tested it out with no anticipation and I was surprised. This is a real fun jump´n´run with funny ideas and a lot of fan service. Especially the level design convinced me. Really a good game! Overall rating: 7.7.

    For it to be so repetitive, so easy, and so filled with useless interruptions – is a colossal disappointment.

    Krusty Krab won’t hold the attention of older games for very long. Younger gamers will probably be entertained by the loopy level designs and crazy objectives.

    There's just no excuse for this. When the previous SpongeBob games have bucked the trend of crappy licensed games as well as they have, to see things fall this far is just that much more depressing.
