Honestly there really isn't much to say about this game, it's kind of just solid overall. As somebody who never played the original version of this game as a kid, I have always heard people praise this as a great 3D platformer. Now having played this myself, I'm sure part of that opinion is just baked-in nostalgia, but it's not like this game is bad or even mediocre.
As a fan of the show, I feel like this game did a great job of capturing the aesthetic and spirit of the show. Committing to actual jokes in the cutscenes isn't something super common in licensed kids games, so I was glad to see an effort made there to bring this in line closer with the show.
The progression has slight elements of a 'collectathon', but largely I'd say this game acts mostly as a linear platformer, with solid, easily understood level design. The level themes blend together a bit, but that's down to all trying to maintain consistency with the show if I had to pin it on anything. Only a very small number of times was I ever frustrated with anything in this game, which is always a good sign. Still, not much stood out as really outstanding or creative in terms of game design. It really is the definition of a 7/10 game.
Also that Mr. Krabs voice actor!! Who let him in the booth!! Bro sounds like a random person off the street doing a pirate voice!!
