When you can't finish part of a game because you're bad at it, that's fine, it's your incompetence, your problem. When you can't finish part of game because it is wildly unfair or badly done, it's completly frustrating. The SpongeBob Movie game starts all fun and happiness - for a moment, I even tought it would end up being one of my favorite games ever - but very soon becomes a patience test.

After a certain point, the missions don't give you the opportunity to miss a turn for half a second in the golden ring areas or to let you just just walk to the other side of the level, due to the infinite amount of ranged enemies and the difficulty to see how far their bullets and rockets are. There's also some platforming that require you to make millimetric calculated jumps and timing to work.

Someday I'll finish this game, but I always need a month - or so - long break to fully recover from the stress it causes me. If I ever played this game as a kid, I could blame the anxiety I have today on it.

EDIT: I finished it and now I feel even more frustrated :)
