Read details on the game below:

Wish-granting Mermaid’s Tears in the hands of SpongeBob and Patrick… What could possibly go wrong? Sure, the very fabric holding the very universe very together could come very undone, opening up portals into Wishworlds full of knights, cowboys, pirates, and prehistoric snails. But that’s nothing everyone’s favorite sponge can’t handle—with the right cosmic costume! Everybody do the Cosmic Shake!

Key Features:

  • Unlock classic and new platforming skills like the Fishhook Swing and Karate Kick.
  • Don more than 30 F.U.N.tastic costumes like SnailBob and SpongeGar.
  • Travel to seven distinct Wishworlds like Wild West Jellyfish Fields and Halloween Rock Bottom.
  • Experience all the buddy movie banter with SpongeBob’s permanent companion Balloon-Patrick.
  • Meet all your favorite Bikini Bottomites from the series, voiced by their original actors.
  • Enjoy the in-game soundtrack featuring 101 songs from the series, including Sweet Victory.

Probably. It’s the sort of franchise that makes its money through merchandising.

It felt like there was a decade when we didn't get SpongeBob games but now they're pumping them out.

This is actually a direct sequel to 2020’s remake of the original 2003 game.

I haven't tried it but I definitely like the recent trend of classic platformers being remade.
