SpongeBob Adventures: In A Jam 4+

Needs more energy

Game is very fun to play. However, majority of the resources you need requires 18+ energy when you only start with 50. Which takes FOREVER to fill back up! Then when you do farm resources you barley get anything from it. Once you leave Jellyfish fields to go to another area such as the city, you CANNOT go back to jellyfish fields to get any resources there etc. It will be closed off 48hrs and after that you still can’t go back to the area. Since there is barley any energy or resources when you try to get some, it makes it very hard to clean/ clear out areas in order to put buildings so you can progress in the game. On top of that with the billboard, they’re will occasionally be an option to watch an add for jems yet after you watch the video (even after multiple times), it still wouldn’t give me jems like it’s supposed to. I love the game but there’s a lot of improving that needs to happen. The thing that annoys me most is that every time I launch the app and it’s loading it will take me to my settings !!!! I’ve NEVER EVER had an app or game do this !

Pay to win

If you aren’t someone that wants to spend a ton of money on a game this isn’t for you. I will spend money on a game when it seems worth it this game is not. I’ve had this game about a week and I’ve already gotten to a point that I cannot move forward without buying resources. The energy bar only fills up to 50 and without finding more around the game or buying it you have to wait for your bar to fill back up to clear up the maps. Some things cost 120+ to break and that makes no sense at all. Maybe don’t cap the energy limit as low or maybe raise it as you progress? The price to production ratio is totally off. One of the only ways to get coins is to fulfill orders but the things that it takes to fill the orders take hours to make and you don’t get enough coins to warrant that amount of effort. I’m at level 18 and I’ve been saving my coins since 16 to build one building. Every time you fill an order it gives you points to level up along with the coins- that’s great, however, I level up faster than it takes to even save enough money to build the buildings that correspond to my level and now I have 5 different buildings to build with not enough coins to build them. 300 coins an order on average and 20-30,000 to even build anything. Also there isn’t a way that you can put everything in your inventory to plan where you want anything and it’s just annoying to move things around.

Fun and Entertaining

I really like this game, and I spend down time playing it almost everyday! The graphics are nice and very true to the actual show, which I grew up watching (and still watch honestly). I like the farming and harvesting competitions where you earn tons of extra energy as well. My only gripe is the rate at which energy is replenished versus spent. Clearing debris is expensive in comparison to how much energy is earned. They have different ways to earn energy, but it seems like the more you progress through the various locations outside of Bikini Bottom, the more expensive it is to clear debris. (Ex: At King Krab’s Castle, it costs 145 energy to get more kelp, and then you’re only given like 5 or 6 kelp.) A good example of a proper exchange rate for energy would be the side quest in SpongeBob’s couch, where clearing debris cost at most 10-15 energy and you got a lot of product. This kept me motivated to play the side quest more than the actual game before it closed after two weeks. In addition, once you move to another location, you cannot access it again after 48 hours, so if you had a lot of debris left that you could harvest, it’s lost. Outside of those things, I do really enjoy playing the game!
