Energy vs Resources Unreasonable
As other reviewers have noted, the energy and resource disparity is a major problem. It caps at 50 and that doesn’t expand… I’m currently level 22, on the 7th world, King Krab’s Castle. Clearing 1 item costs anywhere from 145 to 300 energy in that world. What’s worse is they output the same number of resources per item. Need wood? Spend 260 energy to clear a log and receive 3-5 wood max. That’s waiting 5 hours minimum with Gary giving energy to clear a single item, but cost for the light wood board is 6 wood and two shells… so hours for no progress at all. Getting around this map takes absolutely forever, even if the maps and items are creative and engaging. As someone else said pies are hard to acquire, and there is no point playing the events because you waste precious energy for trash prizes. The order board is totally skewed, you spend a lot of high value resources to get minimal reward that causes you to level up way too fast. 150 energy for an order that cost me 600 energy at this level… worthless. Recommendation to new players, stay at the lower worlds and collect every resource, even though the game encourages you to travel, it’s a pay trap. After world 5 you will have to pay or stop playing. This is fun until they box you into paying to progress. Great concept, but terrible execution for energy and resource metrics.

Live this game…
But the game doesn’t open since october… I can’t play… help…?
Cost way to much energy😡
Play for 5 min before out of energy. Pay2play game.
best game ever
i’m a grown up and i got all the sponge bob games and this is curing my depression
I love the game but it keeps bugging
I’ve lost numerous items I’ve spent gems on
Cannot find anywhere to report for system assistance or online there isn’t anything
I love the game and would change my review rating if I could have my items back
The energy also .. just like everyone else it’s a scam and really slows the game down
You’re made to spend so much of everything at the beginning I think there’s got to be a better way to teach people how to play the game without making us use everything we’re given at first .. as by time you get to actually playing the game yourself you realise you’ve gone too far and can’t come back
Almost tempted to restart the whole game from scratch as I’d have a better chance at playing the game for longer rather than now being tempted to offload due to all the above..

Energy
I just wanted to put in a suggestion that you should be able to buy energy with the coins you’ve accumulated. I have 397,544 coins and i am having to wait to accumulate energy to continue the quests. I think other people would agree that this would be a good feature for add the same way you can buy coins and other cool items with gems. Otherwise i do really enjoy this game. Thank you.

Gave two cause it’s alright
The games got a couple glitches, keeps the items ive collected on the screen and they won’t go away unless you get out of the game and reopen it. I got up to karate island played it for a bit and now it is glitching and just leaves me on the loading page can’t exit it and go back to bikini bottom, it just says loading and the screen doesn’t change, I deleted the app and re-downloaded, it won’t let me continue on karate island no matter what I do, ive updated the app as well and nothings changed, ive made it so far into the game it seems like a waste of time if it just won’t let me play the map

Good but has some glitches; Need more energy
Good game however the ads and diamond systems is messed up. Sometimes I choose to watch an ad to get a few materials I need to make something and after the ad I don’t receive those items. Like watching an ad for 3 more pieces of coral or something. So when I decided to just use 3 diamonds, the game took the 3 diamonds but did not give me the pieces of coral so I had to pay another 3 diamonds, so it essentially just took my diamonds with no reward, and this has happened a few times. As well as collecting a supply but for some reason in my inventory it doesn’t pop up even though I just tapped to collect it and when touching the pic of the item in certain stores, my inventory shows up as 0. These few glitches are annoying as I can be trying to fulfill a tasks and it can’t get done and items are being taken from me and nothing is coming out of it. And we need more ways to get energy like the more we level up the higher our energy cap should be.

Pay to win
If you aren’t someone that wants to spend a ton of money on a game this isn’t for you. I will spend money on a game when it seems worth it this game is not. I’ve had this game about a week and I’ve already gotten to a point that I cannot move forward without buying resources. The energy bar only fills up to 50 and without finding more around the game or buying it you have to wait for your bar to fill back up to clear up the maps. Some things cost 120+ to break and that makes no sense at all. Maybe don’t cap the energy limit as low or maybe raise it as you progress? The price to production ratio is totally off. One of the only ways to get coins is to fulfill orders but the things that it takes to fill the orders take hours to make and you don’t get enough coins to warrant that amount of effort. I’m at level 18 and I’ve been saving my coins since 16 to build one building. Every time you fill an order it gives you points to level up along with the coins- that’s great, however, I level up faster than it takes to even save enough money to build the buildings that correspond to my level and now I have 5 different buildings to build with not enough coins to build them. 300 coins an order on average and 20-30,000 to even build anything. Also there isn’t a way that you can put everything in your inventory to plan where you want anything and it’s just annoying to move things around.
