Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated is one of those titles I never would have considered for a remake, despite having some pretty decent nostalgia for the game's initial release. By and large it does a good job of polishing up a decent game, even if it does not really reinvent the wheel.
Spongebob: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated stands the test of time. Furthermore, I believe it’ll be the Spyro for the new generation
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated is a quality remaster. It takes a good game, gives it a fresh coat of paint and allows both old and newcomers alike to see what made it an engaging experience in the first place.
SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated is a video game that will thrill everyone who grew up playing the original title seventeen years ago. The rehydrated version of Nickleodeon's sponge is fun, respectful of the parent and also able to do some light extra steps, with a graphics department of great quality. The title is long-lived and fun and suffers from the same flaws that the original game could suffer from: a lack of care for the gameplay that in the long run makes it less replayable than video games with a deeper and more layered control system. In any case we would recommend without hesitation SpongeBob: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated, thanks also to the budget price at which it is proposed.

SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated is a must-play game for any fan of SpongeBob. Its witty dialogue and constant references to the show makes for hours of entertainment during every moment of gameplay. Looking past the aged mechanics and lacking multiplayer mode will provide you with a substantial 3D platforming experience, which is something that I can’t say we get too much of.
Anyone charmed by the original’s rough edges will enjoy this thorough and faithful reimagining of the cherished platformer, though it may have benefitted from a bit more time in the oven to polish out technical problems and make the multiplayer mode bearable.
Sure, there is the nostalgia factor here, it had to be said, but sometimes it takes a bit more than that to make a game with spending your hard-earned money and time on.
Despite the renewed presentation, SpongeBob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated drops the ball...
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated is an experience that respects the passion of the fandom.
Hones in on my nostalgia goggles while never quite satiating me like the original.
