BioGamer Girl states, "Spongebob Squarepants: Plankton's Robotic Revenge is a simplistic, fully functional game that won't offer experienced gamers anything worth getting excited about, but it does make a great title for very young gamers that want to play the game on their first console."
GamesAsylum: "It’s hard not to be cynical whenever Activision announces a new licensed game. This is the publisher who gave the world the not only terrible but downright offensive Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse, along with an almost countless number of movie tie-ins that have been hastily knocked out over the years.
We did have a small glimmer of hope before slotting this new SpongeBob game into our console though. It’s by Behaviour Interactive, who made the actually pretty good Rango and Brave tie-ins. If only Activison was as concerning over quality as the publishers of those two"
Darryl Linington from ITF Gaming writes: We have all experienced the antics of SpongeBob SquarePants at some point or other in our lives, either as adults or as teens or kids. While this zany character has been featured in various video game titles and other forms of media… does his latest adventure, SpongeBob SquarePants: Plankton’s Robotic Revenge, live up to the legacy that this character has created?
Buddy Acker reviews Spongebob's latest foray into the gaming world: "SpongeBob SquarePants seems like he would be a perfect fit for the gaming world, but so far video games haven’t been kind to him. His first outing, Legend of the Lost Spatula, was a mediocre platformer, as was its follow-up, SuperSponge. He eventually got around to being in a pretty decent game, Battle for Bikini Bottom, but then its spark was stamped out by miscalculations like Lights, Camera, Pants!, Creature from the Krusty Krab and Truth or Square. Plankton’s Robotic Revenge is the biggest miscalculation of them all. It’s a moribund collection of bad ideas and an embarrassment to everyone’s favorite pineapple-dwelling pal."
While it's not fantastic, it is not this bad. The targeted audience for this is just fine with it. My 7 year old daughter and I had fun while playing. It's easy, drop in and out coop, and dying doesn't happen too often. It's cute enough graphically. And it's cheap. Worth it overall.
