    One of the most popular games of the old generation returns, and oh my it is beautiful. It is a shame to see that this game is being completely bombed by critics that I won't mention, cough cough IGN & GameSpot.

It is a shame to see that this game is being completely bombed by critics that I won't mention, cough cough IGN & GameSpot. The claim that this game is like the original is so unbelievable naive because that is exactly what it is supposed to be, this isn't a major triple A title with all the funding in the world to be a full on remake among the likes of FF7 or RE2/RE3. This is a faithful remake that stays true to what it was and the time it was from. Another unfair criticism is that the game feels old, yeah no s**t, the game was originally made in 2003. Maybe if they killed off Spongebob and chopped Patricks arm off it would be a 10/10 according to IGN standards. The game is a beautiful new look on the original cult classic and it's only $30, what more could you ask for.… Expand

    I had to buy this in order to take away the filthy feeling that I got after watching TLOU2, this game plays better than the PS2 version and the graphics are soo lovely to see, this game actually gives you a good feeling when you play it, I rather gave them my money than the TLOU2 hahaha.

    This game freakin slaps.
    Smooth as hell controls and really beautiful textures and animations.
    Smooth frame rate.
    Pro game critics are straight up retarded.

    A solid HD remake of a solid platformer. Just like the original, it isn't difficult, but won't hold your hand. Visuals look great with the HD models and textures.

    This is one of, if not the best Spongebob games you can buy. Hopefully more people see that and get it to play.

    From the deep plot to the amazing level design to the lovely characters, spongebob squarepants BFBBR is a masterpiece without a doubt. Better than the last of us part 2 by a mile. i honestly think this game should be game of the year.

    It's exactly what I wanted, BFBB but remade for modern consoles. What more could I ask for really? I hope they redo the movie game or make a sequel.

    Hate to bring this up, but wow, Metacritic did not make it easy to make this account. Constantly failed the creation process. I'm sure they're throttling new accounts to keep TLOU2 ratings from getting too low, but other games exist too    It's exactly what I wanted, BFBB but remade for modern consoles.

    Очевидная игра года (если не десятилетия), лучше The Last Of Us 2 в плане сюжета, графики, игровых возможностей и наличия мультиплеера.

    Игра просто божественна, концовка игры заставила меня плакать. Но я не хочу вам ничего спойлерить, так как концовка будет уже не такой неожиданной и гениальной!

    I don't care about the memes at all. I do unironically consider this game to be one of the "dark 2020's" brightest rays of light.
    First things first - the diversity. The game's protagonist (the infamous SpongeBob SquarePants) is gay, his sidekick (Patrick) is just mental (or it's better to say "has unusually developed mind and character".

    First things first - the diversity. The game's protagonist (the infamous SpongeBob SquarePants) is gay, his sidekick (Patrick) is just mental (or it's better to say "has unusually developed mind and character". Though the game seriously lacks black (#BlackLivesMatter) and female representation it doesn't really affects the unique for it's genre gameplay. I like the ideas the game contributes but i just can't understand why the developers didn't spread the feminist, anti-racist-fascist ideas. The LGBTQ+ ideology isn't as promoted as desired but still thanks for what you did. I always had a feeling while gaming like c'mon THQ Nordic you have a great platform and people are really hyped about your project. PLEASE ADD MORE BLACK LGBTQ+ FEMALE REPRESENTATION TO YOUR GAMES IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT PEOPLE IRL DYING BECAUSE OF MISUNDERSTANDING AND INTOLERANCE THAT LEAD TO A PURE HATRED
    The gameplay itself is fun, the game reminds of those oldschool games I played with my fathers as a kid. No doubt it is 10/10, even 12/10 really.
    I've bought this game for myself for the PS4 and for my boyfriend for his Switch. We now have so much of these happy pride moments discussing the game after hours we spent on it. I'm really grateful to THQ Nordic and Nikelodeon for the game and me and my bf just can't stand waiting for the its sequel
    P.S For those who did actually read it...
    I forgot about the story. It's simple as it should be, no mysoginist sex scenes or masculine violence or schovinist ideas.
    Thanks for reading (except for white men. you don't get my "thanks", toxic suprematists)    … 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.
