Its moves and mechanics have all been done before. As a platformer in general, nothing really sticks out about Truth or Square. It’s got everything a Spongebob-loving kid would need to have a fantastic time. And it’s got just the right tools to do that: bright colors, funny characters, and interesting sounds. As long as they can remember at least one attack button, they should be good.īut the game isn’t meant to be challenging, it’s meant to entertain kids who love Spongebob. The controls and movement are all fairly easy to get down, so it shouldn’t be a challenging game for kids. Spongebob moves across the scene battling robots with his arsenal of attacks. Truth or Square is set up very much like a classic side scrolling platformer: think Cool Spot or even Contra. And this is where the action kids love comes in. But the evil Plankton is also involved, filling Spongebob’s memories with enemies like robots. The game takes the form of reliving these happy memories. So his friends gather together to help him remember some of his happiest memories, so he can hopefully find the formula again. Spongebob has been entrusted with the Krabby Patty formula, but he lost it- and can’t remember where it is, because he’s too sad. There isn’t much story to this game, but what there is holds up well. It will keep children entertained for hours and would make a great gift for any kids in your life. Considering it’s a game made for kids, it does a pretty good job. Sure, some might call it repetitive or boring- but those would be adults. And Truth or Square might be among the best of them. Spongebob has had many video game adaptations over the years, and with a show so popular with children, it’s no wonder why.
