Don't know why they will not let you enter a review without at least one star????
After reading the reviews I have changed my mind about buying the Battle For Bikini Bottom. I will take this off my wish list and look for something else for my 5 year old to play. Thanks reviewers.

Fun kids game, but short

My 5-year old LOVES Spongebob, and definitely enjoys the game. There are three (or four?) areas that have a series of challenges; you have to complete each before moving on to the next. Once you have completed them all, you can go back and play whichever games you like the most. I don't see this as a favorite among older kids (9 and up) -- it could get a bit boring. And younger kids need help with some of the challenges and the trivia games. But, if your expectations are reasonable, it's a cool little game.

Why do the publishers treat PC users this way?

If you shop around for this game, you'll notice that there is a PC, PS2 and XBOX version - the boxes are almost identical. The XBOX and PS2 versions are actual 3-D adventures where you get to control the various characters of Bikini Bottom with some mini-games added-in. The console versions of the game are pretty good. The PC version IS NOT! It is basically a series of mind-numbing mini-games and 2-D platforming that tends to frustrate the kids more than anything else. My kids got tired of getting stuck and gave up.
The funny part is that most XBOX and PS2 games are originally created with programming tools on the PC - so why create such a simplified uninteresting game for the PC user. Must have to do with licensing agreements so it won't compete with the consoles.
I would avoid this game and let THQ know that they should create the same game for all the platforms they release it on (even if they need to charge the same price as the console version)!

VERY FUN GAME!!!

There are tons of mini games in this SpongeBob game (I think there are like 30 total). My favorite section is the Trivia which has questions on all of the Main Characters. I would reccomend this game for kids between the ages of 6-10.

a great game!!

battle for bikini bottom is a great game!!
it works on my computer perfectly except on some parts
the computer freaks out but anyway the games are fun especially the one where you slice robots with a wooden sword but no violence nothing like battery fluid dripping just the robots fall down and jump back up a few seconds after getting slashed.
and i like the one with mr. krabs and he has to wrestle robots!
and you csn do a quiz about the characters too they ask you questions and they free you friends!! and sandy's game is good too you have to lasso the robots before they can get to you or else sandy spins around like she being electrocuted and then she falls asleep and patrick's where he's the superhero called da da!! "THE PINK MENACE!!!" and he walks around on the streets punching robots and they fall apart. and there's another where you flip swicthes and then you walk around the chum bucket.and the graphics are good too like "employee of the month"

i havn not had so much fun

Computer Crash

I bought this game for my little sister. She wanted me to install it so I did. Little did I know how bad of software this is. I consider myself a computer geek, I work on computers for my part time job, (I am a sophomore in High school) and this program gave me the most frustrations I have ever had with computers.
I installed it on Windows ME. It said it had to reboot, so I let it. It took 60 minutes to reboot. And after it did, guess what? It had deleted my sound card driver. Now to a regular computer user, you would have to take your computer in to a computer repair shop to fix this. But I was able to do this myself, and it still took me a half hour to do that. So I reinstalled the program, and the whole system crashed. It would load, but freeze up totally. I was ready break down and cry. But after several hours I was able to fix my system. I finally did get it to work, after several hours, and keep in mind that I am a computer geek. THQ made the worst software, Paris Hilton could write it better, and the way other people's reviews sound, the games not that fun anyway.
Bottom line- if this is a must have game (which I don't know why it would be) buy a PS2 or game cube. Because if I didn't know as much about computers that I do, I would have had to bring my computer into the shop and spend several hundred dollars to get it fixed (PS2's cost about $200, a lot cheaper than what the shop would charge to get your computer fixed)
Hope you find this helpful.

Many hours of fun!

I bought this for my 6-year old daughter and we both enjoyed many hours of quality fun playing through all the different puzzles and games. One of the best game purchases I made.

Trash!

I purchased this game for me and my children and we did not find it fun at all. We've enjoyed numerous platform games, but this one does not have much to offer. Monotonous and mundane...I would look elsewhere for an enjoyable video game...try simpsons hit and run...spongebob "battle" is HORRIBLE!
