SpongeBob's Atlantis SquarePantis on the GBA is basically like playing through a lost episode of the show—if that episode involved way more jumping on jellyfish and collecting golden spatulas. You start off just messing around Bikini Bottom like usual, but then Patrick drops some nonsense about Atlantis, and suddenly you're platforming through coral reefs and dodging weird sea creatures.

The controls are simple (it's a GBA game, after all), but some of the later levels actually get kinda tricky. I remember getting stuck in this one temple section where you have to bounce on spongy mushrooms just right—took me way too many tries. The art style nails the cartoon's vibe, though, and the music? Total earworms. That Atlantis theme still pops into my head sometimes.

It's not some deep RPG or anything, but if you ever wanted to feel like you're inside a SpongeBob episode while occasionally yelling at Squidward for being useless, this does the job. Just don't expect the plot to make more sense than the show usually does.
