SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottle – Rehydrated is a title so long we need a rehydrating drink whenever we say it out loud. What’s really refreshing, though, is how Rehydrated not only looks better than the orig old-school game. It looks even spiffier than the cartoon! We love how much variety there is in this SpongeBob sandpit. You’ll obvs jump into SpongeBob’s SquarePants playable square pants. His neat trick is converting bubble-blower blown bubbles into controllable projectiles. Use ’em to crack puzzles and crack goons’ noggins. Then there’s Patrick Star. He’s a star with his water-freezing trick, which is perf for ice-cold platforming. Plus, sneak in some levels as Sandy Cheeks. This squirrelly hero loves her nifty rope lasso. Use it to hover across levels. Or for latching onto slippery baddies. In between action-packed platforming, take a slide on the Sonic-like speed tracks. Our fave? Sandy sliding on seashells by the seashore.

PRO TIP!

Every Battle for Bikini Bottom boss brawl has a unique weakness. So, play defensively at first. Keep your distance and look to dodge attacks. Take note of their nasty attacks. Then get in a quick hit or few when you spot an opening. It might be their back, a detachable head, or giant arms!
