Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Pretty solid Mobile port in all honesty, Controller of support also enhances it very well and makes it feel like youre playing on a console, we ended up getting all the achievements, no problem as well. If all you have is a Phone or a IPad to play video games on and if youve got controller nearby with Bluetooth, we would highly recommend this, Sure its not the best way to play cosmic shake, But at the end of the day, it is still cosmic shake and a pretty good solid SpongeBob game at that.
Ive liked SpongeBob a lot and this game is fun.
To anyone giving below a 4 star you are ruining the authenticity of reviews and any bugs or problems you had are most likely due to your phone. Game ran perfect and looks amazing. Keep these ports coming.
We just 100% this game and its amazing the costumes are amazing gameplay and mechanics just chef kiss handygames are the goat for porting this to mobile Im getting a new phone and our phone can still play at ultra resolution and 60 fps.
This game is very good. We recommend this game! Its much better than the first one. The icons are also optimized, and the plot has become full of twists and turns. Great.
Reminds of the gamecube one how did we not find this sooner.
We tried lowering the graphic settings but there are now more problems. The hand control keeps appearing, the swing control is the reef blower sucking control. Bikini bottom crashes, photomode crashes, and the pause menu goes black! PLEASE HAVE AN UPDATE.
So nice..gameplay and graphics its cool.
We completed the whole story and keeps crashing.
Its a awesome game but Fix this. At the end of the game after we defeated madam Kassandra and Squidward and when the paper rolls out it glitched out and it made us mad and did it over and over but still glitched.
This mobile port is amazing! Our game barely even lags and the graphics are crisp. The touch controls are (surprisingly) good and Im not even running this one one of those Fancy high end iOS devices like an IPad Pro. As long as your device isnt too old and with proper graphics configuration in the game settings this can actually run on a lot of mobile devices. The only gripes we have with this is that one this game takes up a LOT of storage like Im talking 10 gigabytes (which is A lot for a mobile game) and the fact that our device gets a bit warm when playing the game on some areas. Which isnt even a problem with the game itself.
Its great the whole thing exept it keeps crashing when we beat the game after jelly squidward so Im kinda just stuck so we dont play anymore but Im runing this on a iPhone 9 so thats prolably why.
It takes to long to load but after all this game is pretty fun.
Every time you get an achievement In the game it opens the pause menu which we kind of annoying.
Thank you @Handy Games for adding back the 60 fps option and giving players the option to enable it. Its appreciated for those with newer, capable devices. We always appreciate when developers give us more choices the choices to adjust the games fidelity/performance. Especially on platforms like mobile where theres no guarantee you will get any tweakable options at all.
So we just wrote a review saying it was good but Im changing it because when we go to the big sand castle it keeps glitching and we cant play so not the best game.
Yall need to fix the glitch because when we beat the glove and get to the cleaning up bikini bottom it glitches and makes us redo the glove man again.
It was fun at first but then it got repetitive since the gameplay was mostly the same and the game kept crashing and it made us beat the same boss multiple times but the game wasnt actually that bad just annoying gameplay but you should make more SpongeBob games.
We love this game, Its fun but it keeps bugging! We made it to the pirate level, however at some point whenever we reach a specific moment it bugs and leave the app by itself and we need to play again and go back again to the same checkpoints where we were before, which is annoying we couldnt surpass that level because of that bug.
We play this before but now Im trying to play again yet everytime we try downloading additional file the game say error not sure why cuz we have the space for it.
A game like this should have full controller support when being ported.
Great game, however it keeps crashing at the same exact part when we beat glovey glove. Frustrating.
Hey whenever we complete the final boss, the game crashes. Im playing the game on a iPhone 11 and the version is 17.5.1. Can you please fix this issue.
Such a nice game because of the maps and everything that we want to see something happens in the game because Im getting bored talk lets talk later.
We have it on pc and like it and thought we would buy it on mobile to play anywhere but we usually get stuck on the download screen when we launch the game and when we get to 3GB it doesnt work we have enough space on our phone but you got to fix this it needs 4GB and we have enough space its annoying please fix this Im on IOS 15.5 and it should work because other games we have work fine like battle for bikini bottom mobile that is the same company who made this game and we thought this game would work fine but it didnt make a update for IOS 15 and lower as well so people can play it or Refund our Game Because it doesnt work we really wanted to play it but it doesnt work please fix the game for iOS 15 it says people can play on IOS 15 but it doesnt work please fix this game From A YouTuber with 340 subscribers EGGMAN FAN YT Also if you fix this we will play it on our YouTube Channel.
Everybody in the world should buy this game.
The controls is similar to the battle of the b-b,Very nice graphics as usual. Good to see PSP level gameplay available in the AppStore 100% Recommend:).
They game is very fun it has some of its bugs when we are saving squidward and you get smacked by out of the creatures you can fall in the lava and get stuck there without dying and in the glove boss you take damage when there is nothing there little annoyed by this but the game is fun nice graphics the voice acting is perfect the saving is having a little difficult time saving three times Im not sure why and sometimes it forgets to save but at least it does. It would be 5 Stars if theses bugs were fixed.
We really enjoy this game, but our gosh, does it constantly crash (especially on the latest 128GB Apple TV). Walking around and get to a safe point Crash! Just beat a boss and portaling back to Bikini Boom Crash! Finally reached that hidden coin youve been trying to get for a while Crash! Just now, we were walking around the film studio stage in an area with no activity since we previously beat the mini boss in that area and, you guessed it Crash. We really hope these issues get sorted out soon so we can enjoy the rest of the game without worrying about losing any data.
Close to beating Pom Pom, and then it crashes. Please fix. Thanks.
We have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and the game works with any graphic settings even epic settings runs smoothly. The only thing is that our phone gets very hot on these settings. Even when we change it to the lowest graphics settings it still gets hot. It would be a great game if it didnt make our phone hot. Hopefully they can update it to fix the heat problem.
Our game keeps crashing when downloading the mandatory 4gb on top of the 3gb for the game and its making our game crash and our phone go slow.
Would be better if the game have different speeds, like slow motion and all of that, so all ages and kids can play in slow motion without being stressed that the game is too fast.
We have completed the same level now 3 times and when ever we pick the game back up after getting sponge bobs house we lose all the progress. We were enjoying this game in our off time but now Im upset.
We downloaded this game because we love it and we also had it in console but when we first played it we couldnt get pass the first part and there was no solution and squidwards house was invisible and we couldnt touch it.
Check on mr krabs parachuting to 3rd tower has bug because the meter is still plenty full when you get there but you fall right in front of it.
The game keeps crashing as we get into goo lagoon.
This game has such a great story. As a long time SpongeBob fan this game really exceeded our expectations, just like rehydrated. When we beat the game it made us so sad that it had to end, we need another one just like it, so good job THQ Nordic, and purple lamp studios for making such an amazing experience.
Handy your a legend for porting this to mobile! Ive only experienced at least 1 crash and Ive had smooth experience. Ive beat the finale and am now collecting all the doubloons and spatulas to complete the game.
When we deafest Pom Pom the game crashes when we go into the the portal.
There an error in this game Im try to play it but its always taking us out and the app closing please fix it.
Updated review had to uninstall and reinstall it but other than that runs smoothly much better than before a lot of stuff was missing now everything is fine.
Its good and we had no problem with it until we got to the part with spongegar, we defeated the boss in that level but it crashed when we were going to the portal so we had to defeat it again. Then the last battle with jelly squidward and Kassandra we beat and it kept crashing. We had to redo it twice and even on the second time it crashed so Im still trying to defeat them. Idk if this is bc of our device or not – edit: we finished it and we think it was really fun.
The game crashes later in in the game we just wasted our money please update the game soon as possible.
Squidward door is visible for us Also pirate level the first sock the platform to get the sock its also visible for us in the Gary level we spawn probably falling to our death. We still love this game fix these bugs and we will be happy If dont fix this bug we will never play this game again, because in pirate goo a goon The first platform still will be invisible will probably fall in Gary in the first section, please fix these bugs so we can finish the game our uncle try to fix the settings it doesnt work.
Thank you HandyGames for porting this to mobile. When this game first came out we were a little skeptical and we didnt think this game would capture the nostalgic feeling we had when we were a child playing the older SpongeBob games on PS2, but this game did! We love the colors and everything about this game. Definitely a 10/10 and overall a 5 star rating for this game. This game runs very smooth on our iPhone 15 Pro.
So this game is the best because theres a lot to explore and you can change SpongeBob and you can these little creatures and big creatures! Best game ever.
Idk what everyone else talking about this game is sick.
People complaining are trippin. Have the graphics settings on low and youll be good. We enjoy this game better than SpongeBob battle for bikini bottom and that was the best SpongeBob game ever made. Keep up the great work handy games.
As someone that grew up watching the show, this is probably the best video game. Got the voices right for the most part, the graphics are great for mobile. The map is improved compared to bfbb. The humor from the show is here, a little turned down compared to what we knew but we cant complain. Little buggy, glitches here and there but nothing compared to what people are saying. Ive played at ultra 120hz on a iPhone 14 pro max. Two crashes and the game started without any character audio. But other than that its been smooth sailing. Although airplay understandably runs terrible unless you drop the fps to 30. And at that point you pretty much have the switch port. We could really appreciate the trend in full fledge console games coming to mobile.
