    A really good remake of the classic game. They didn't change much from the core gameplay [which I personally love] - and the small snippets of cut content add some nice small differences to the core story

    This game is what I live to see. One of my most anticipated games in the second quarter. A revisit to a cult classic to me at least left nothing back and gave me what I needed in 2020. Much love to everyone who worked on this absolute gem

    12/10. Это титаническая и невероятная работа, к которой я имел счастье прикоснуться. Эта игра навсегда оставит коричневое пятно в истории.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I cannot understand why IGN, Gamespot and many more give the game like 5/10 or even 2/10 because it delivers everything it was supposed to. It's a complete remake of the original from 2003 and it still has its old charm. I completed it at 100% and I don't regret anything while playing (so I don't felt like wasting time playing this and stuff like that). Surely the graphics aren't the best but I mean it's Spongebob and not GTA or The Last of Us and it's 30$ which is a pretty sweet price for a remake of one of the best 3D platformers.… Expand

    Better than I ever could've hoped for. Yes, nostalgia hit me like a truck, but the game is extremely solid nonetheless and I'm sure the game would be just as fun if not better if I hadn't played the original. Would love to see a Rehydrated for the movie game as well.

    this game is very good. I think many of the "professional" critics thought this was just a game for kids and didn't take it seriously. that's unfortunate. if you're looking for fun in a videogame, Spongebob BBB is a great choice.

    Not so well hydrated after all. So I want to start this review by saying I had such a positive feeling about this game before reviewing it, it looked fun and energetic and everything my younger heart heart could want from a Spongebob game, let me tell you it isn’t.

    The game is definitely tailored to younger audiences even though the original game came out in 2003. I understand wanting to    Not so well hydrated after all. So I want to start this review by saying I had such a positive feeling about this game before reviewing it, it looked fun and energetic and everything my younger heart heart could want from a Spongebob game, let me tell you it isn’t.

    The game is definitely tailored to younger audiences even though the original game came out in 2003. I understand wanting to attract a younger audience as Spongebob is a character liked by adults and children alike. However seeing as this cult classic game did come out in 2003, it would make sense to try to tailor to the players of the original too. This doesn’t appear to be the case.

    Firstly I want to say this could just be my Switch hardware, but the graphics of the remaster are extremely poor compared to what the trailers had promised. I know that what was shown in most trailers was PS4 and Xbox footage but I found some Switch promotional materiel and the finished game is no where near as graphically polished as this material. I even had to find a cut-scene online as my game glitched and skipped an early game cut-scene, that was within 10 minutes of starting to play this game and from that moment on I realised my expectations for this game had been far too high.

    The gameplay is interesting for the first 20 minutes and then becomes boring and repetitive the platforming is clunky and uninspired and worst of all are the enemies. There is no extensive variation to the enemies so you continue to use the boring controls with the same combinations to defeat these enemies with ease as most only have one thing you need to avoid before being able to defeat them in 1 hit.

    The Boss battles, if that’s what they can be called also follow the same theme, they have very few lives, making them no challenge at all once you work out how to avoid them once it’s simple to do again. This just adds to the sense of boredom when playing this game there isn’t even a difficulty setting for if you want to try it on a more challenging experience. There are however a few things I did severely enjoy about this game.

    Having watched Spongebob my entire childhood I am very fond of the show and remember lots of cameo appearances and to see some translate into the game was a nice nostalgic trip for me. Also being a fan of the show I cannot fault the soundtrack for the game it reminds me of all of the hilarious episodes I watched as a child and some are stuck in my head since playing. Another enjoyable aspect of the game is the voice acting, with most of the original cast returning it’s a nice continuation for fans of the show, however there is a very noticeable omission, in that Mr Krabs is not the original voice actor and to any fans of the show it’s a very obvious alteration.

    Overall, aside from the actual nostalgia of playing something new in the Spongebob universe there is nothing of note to pull anyone towards this game, and especially if you’re looking at getting a platformer on Switch save up a bit more and buy the stellar Super Mario Odyssey.

    For this game I would give it a 3/10    … Expand

    What stands out to me the most though? The considered thought of the level design.

    Although the gameplay and character models feel refreshed (Patrick’s limbs are delightfully floppy), the level design pales when compared to newer 3D platformers. Fully remade,2 including a remastered soundtrack, Battle For Bikini Bottom proves to be fun on a technical level, but the barren worlds, many NPCs you cannot interact with, and vexing objectives (the rolling ball in Mermaid Man’s lair, anybody?) make it fun and frustrating in equal measure. Fans won’t want to leave this one at the bottom of the sea. [Issue#178, p.82]

    Lots of charm and lots of content, still worth the investment if you’re a nostalgic soul, looking for a fresh dose of bikini bottom action. Some aspects - the amount of texture pop-in, to name one - undeniably feel a bit dated, though.
