SpongeBob SquarePants: The Patrick Star Game

Released: 10/4/2024

The evocatively named SpongeBob SquarePants blazes onto Game Boy Advance in this preposterous platform game. Manoeuvre SpongeBob and his trusty if unintelligent chum Patrick simultaneously; the two must hotfoot it to Shell City in order to claim King Neptune’s crown and thereby clear the name of a beleaguered crab who stands accused of a crime he did not commit. Famous faces from SpongeBob’s warped world pop up to enliven the proceedings, and there are around thirty colourful levels to explore; add a sterling selection of secret areas to discover, as well as an awesome array of moves like the Power Charge and Sponge Soak to master, and SquarePants fans will lap this one up. Already a cinematic sensation, now the ever-versatile SpongeBob is a star on Game Boy Advance…
