SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom

SpongeBob returns to grace the GCN in SpongeBob SquarePants : Battle for Bikini Bottom, an all-new aquatic 3D adventure from THQ.

Bikini Bottom's own diminutive evil mastermind, Plankton, has created a diabolical device he dubs the Duplicatotron 3000--with it, he has cloned an army of robots to do his bidding. Unfortunately for him, he forgot to flip a switch, and now the robots have gone haywire. SpongeBob and the gang must now save their beloved Bikini Bottom community from the robotic menace!

Features

• Play as SpongeBob SquarePants, Patrick Star or Sandy Cheeks. Each character sports unique undersea abilities, and you can switch between them any time you like using Bus Stops placed throughout the levels.

• Explore 10 enormous 3D regions, including Downtown Bikini Bottom, Jellyfish Fields and the Mermalair.

• Play far out minigames like Underwear Bungie Jumping and Tongue Boarding.

• Search every deep sea crack and crevice for secrets and rewards.

Bottom Line

The 3D platformer game design is elegantly simple and endlessly enjoyable, making for a game that's genuinely fun (and funny).
