    I enjoyed this game but I hate that it makes you play through multiple times to be able to get to 100% completion. I have too many other games waiting to do that.

    Cosmic shake is a slightly better game than BFBB but still has the same issues that BFBB had such as unstable framerates and pop-in. Still pretty good though since it's fun to move around.

    I wish I liked playing this game but it was kinda boring. With the only pluses being the music diverse levels and cool references from the show. However it had very outdated combat and platforming that got repetitive after a few levels.

    Coupled with the timeless charm and humour of SpongeBob, The Cosmic Shake can be a lot of fun—just don’t go in expecting anything groundbreaking or especially polished.

    This game is totally amusing and entertaining, even with a few glitches that might cause a slight slow down in-between scenes.

    SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake is the kind of thing I love to champion — a mid-budget licensed platformer with a few rough edges that could have easily existed in the ’00s. Sure, it’s not breaking any new ground and could use a little polish when it comes to level design and performance on the Switch, but the final product is a joyous ride from start to finish. For fans of the series like me or anyone else who can’t get enough of that yellow sponge, this undersea multiverse adventure is worth checking out.
