spongebob except he gets high on acid and lives in a fever dream

Decent SpongeBob platforming game for fans of the series. Kids can easily pick it up and play it. If you still have a Wii, Xbox 360, PSP, or DS and you're a fan of SpongeBob SquarePants and platformers, pick this one up. You won't regret it once you beat it the entire way through or at least start playing it.

I'm shocked I've seen so many disappointing reviews. I thought this was a great SpongeBob adaptation!

I will say, however, this is the only SpongeBob game I've played, so that probably helps.

Sure it doesn't have any replay value, but I feel that way about most games I beat / 100%. And honestly, for this game being 13 years old, the graphics were pretty decent!

This brought me right back to growing up watching SpongeBob on Nick and I'm not mad about it.

The DS version of this game is the best way to play it


A pretty nice return to form for Spongebob 3D platformers, but there's this weird feeling of aimlessness emitting from it. It almost like Nick just gave them a short sentence premise about the episode and just told them to do whatever they want; but the premise of the episode reallly dosn't leave anything to the imagination so it just feels hallow.

Far from the game that Happiness Squared was promised to be, but given that it's a Nick game, it doesn't shock me that the company hurried the devs to rush it out of the door and tie it into an awful (also messy and rushed) TV special.

Truth or Square was meant to be the return to form for the SpongeBob video games, bringing back in beloved devs Heavy Iron Studios. The rush job that resulted from the devs being forced to push the game out as quickly as possible is repetitive, lacks originality and recycles a hell of a lot of content from those beloved 6th gen Heavy Iron titles. The game's over as quickly as it starts, and leaves a whole lot of nothing for you to churn over in your mind.

What did Nick learn from this? Absolutely nothing. Every licensed game ever since (even the good ones) have been rushed out to meet arbitrary dealines, but at least we live in an age of patches and DLC so those games had a chance of being fixed later down the line. ToS wasn't so lucky. It's fun for all of about 10 minutes before the game loop begins to repeat. Not one I'd be in a rush to replay again soon unlike Heavy Iron's other staples of my gaming diet.

Mais uma vez entre centenas, um jogo divertido porem que ainda precisava de muito para ser BOM mesmo

I played the ds version and was my first game on any Nintendo system. It has a lot of sentimental value. While it is a bit generic, it's still fun to play. Plus the soundtrack is pretty good.

Worse than Battle for Bikini Bottom, still a lot of dumb fun (Wii version is stupid because motion controls)

Me and my brother, who are both huge SpongeBob fans gave this a play and it's actually so much better than I thought it would be. Nowhere near the best SB game I've played but it was still fun nonetheless, even if the story is kind of lackluster.

remember when spongebob hit bitches w a spatula

A fun but short platformer that does feel rushed and a bit aimless.

I want to like this more because it did feel rushed and unfinished. At first I was happy to listen to familiar tracks from the old THQ games again and to see some new attacks but then I realized the laziness of the levels in comparison to those of the classics it's based on, and then the game was over (after an admittedly fun final level). Still, it was a cozy time.

this was my reality and my life for months on end. this was all i was. i can't rate it less

Heavy Iron Studios' third and final round with the little yellow sponge is easily their most disappointing one of the trio.

While it is better than the massive pile of poop that is the TV special which this game shares the title of and was also released around the same time, Truth or Square also proves that it does not share any of the same charm or fun that both Battle for Bikini Bottom and The Movie games provided which is a real darn crying shame considering just how good they were.

What happened here Heavy Iron? As a certain Star Wars character would say "You were the chosen one!"

This game is very lazy and boring. All it feels like is a reskin of Battle for Bikini Bottom with some new things occasionally, and its so bland. Funny enough, this game actually reuses most of its music from Battle for Bikini Bottom, with some other tracks being from the movie game and the series itself. The idea of the game is pretty cool, but if anything, it feels insanely rushed and not cared for enough.
