KEY POINTS:
SPONGEBOB: ATLANTIS SQUAREPANTS
Nintendo DS, G
Herald Rating: * *
Pros
SpongeBob and friends travel to the lost city of Atlantis to look at the World's Oldest Bubble. Only SpongeBob could spin that premise into a reasonably compelling game.
Cons
Considering the innovative use of the Nintendo's dual screens we've already seen SpongeBob comes up short and feels padded-out with less than original ideas.
Verdict
The crazy storyline and quirky band of characters will delight the kids, but this is an average game that fails to transcend the children's genre in the way SpongeBob traditionally has.
