148apps - SpongeBob Marbles & Slides (both for the iPhone and the iPad) is surprising. Oftentimes, a game tied to a license like SpongeBob will be weighed down by bad design, development and implementation. A crunch for time, lack of interest and license mandates have a knack of getting directly in the way of the game’s success. And that’s why Marbles & Slides is surprising; it’s a really good game.
MacWorld - Everyone’s favorite sea sponge from Bikini Bottom has arrived on the iPad in a physics game from Nickelodeon. SpongeBob Marbles and Slides HD is rife with characters and settings from the popular Nickelodeon cartoon and while the gameplay is challenging and enjoyable, the confused visuals and unnecessary elements of the game ultimately make the app cluttered and frenzied.
SpongeBob, the lovably naive hero of the long-running Nickelodeon TV show, has hit the App Store once again with a new game that’s chock full of SpongeBobian charm. Marbles and Slides is a game that combines line drawing, pinball, and underwater physics to produce something unique and fun, especially if you happen to be a kid.
