Gameplay
A new SpongeBob game has arrived on the app store and it’s been advertised to me too many times now for me to ignore it! SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off is a cooking game based on SpongeBob opening up a Pancake stall for the Krusty Krab. Mr. Krabs has noticed that not many customers want a Krabby Patty in the mornings, so he wants to see if pancakes do any better.
As the customers start to flood in, SpongeBob (you) has to keep up with the orders within either a time limit or customer limit. By completing the levels, you can upgrade your equipment which will help you out as the levels get harder.
Graphics
The good news is, the graphics make it very obvious that you’re playing a SpongeBob game. The designs, colors, and characters are spot on. However, the animation of the characters is slightly off. The way they move shows this game focused on some elements more than others.
Music & Sounds
The music fits in well with the gameplay, although I was disappointed that the SpongeBob theme song doesn’t make an appearance at any point. Another thing that bothered me with the sounds is that the characters don’t speak – it would’ve been cool for them to at least have phrases.
Controls
As with the majority of cooking games, you need to tap on an item to cook it, tap when it’s cooked, and then tap again to give it to the customer. This keeps the simplicity and allows you to focus on what’s important: getting the orders out on time!

The Verdict
I’ve been through my fair share of cooking games so despite SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off being fun to play, it wasn’t unique enough for me to keep on my phone. It’s probably something I’d go back to but not forever.
It just seems like a good way to make money off a famous name…
