SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit is a free arcade game from Viacom International Inc. that features the iconic titular sponge character from Bikini Bottom along with all his friends. In this platformer game, players will have to run across town in an attempt to save SpongeBob’s friends and retrieve the Krabby Patty formula from Plankton.

Similar to games like Terraria and Dead Cells, you will have to evade obstacles and make use of your environment to reach higher areas in SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit. You’ll also need to collect coins and spatulas along the way.

Run across Bikini Bottom

Players can enjoy a thrilling underwater adventure in SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit as they make their way through various locations with unique obstacles and environments for you to admire. This platformer features some of your favorite SpongeBob characters and makes use of the classic cartoon visuals that you already know and love. The controls are also easy enough for anyone—even new and young players—to learn.

Each level features some mind-boggling puzzles for you to figure out, so there’s more to the gameplay than just moving out of the way of obstacles. Much like the show this game is based on, you’ll also be able to enjoy some wacky physics, especially as the titular character makes use of the transformation machines to turn into something hilarious.

Make sure to collect as many items as you can, as well, as you’ll need these to unlock special items and abilities that will help you complete each challenge. Take note, however, that the game does experience some jumpy frame rates and lagging, especially when playing on lower-specced devices. You’ll also need at least 2.3 GB of free space to accommodate the game and its files.

Fun for all ages

With its lighthearted premise and simple yet entertaining gameplay, SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit proves to be a fun-filled game that young players and fans of the franchise alike can greatly enjoy. While it can be quite heavy for lower-specced devices to handle, it can easily be looked over given the visually appealing sceneries and numerous levels with varying sceneries and characters for you to uncover.
