### 2/5 — help

*2026-09-03, version 2.11.0*

game is bugged
i’m not sure if the app has just never updated it further or if it’s bugged but i am stuck in the fry cook museum in vegas. it hasn’t progressed past “coming soon” since the update in August of 2024

### 2/5 — Horrible

*2026-09-02, version 2.11.0*

I used to love this… unfortunately, it has all gone down the drain. The game that is outside of the Netflix app has been updated to include subscriptions and pay walls. Because of this, my Netflix version of this game (this one) no longer works. I’ve been stuck on the loading screen for the past month probably. I used to play this game daily, would reach millions of gems/join the competitions, and loved seeing all the new levels and other new foods. I really miss it.

### 2/5 — Bad Glitches

*2026-08-29, version 2.11.0*

I love this game and played it daily. However, a glitch with displaying tournament details caused my game to break. The game froze and crashed. Now my game is stuck at the loading screen every time I try to start the game. Does not matter the device it’s played on. Restarted the app, my phone, deleted and redownloaded. Nothing worked. Contacted customer service 3 times and they continue to say the internal team is working on it, but can’t and won’t tell me when it will be fixed. No solution yet. I just decided to delete the game since I can’t play it anymore anyway. Over 2000 levels played 😔

### 3/5 — Fan

*2026-08-26, version 2.11.0*

Needs game controllers

### 2/5 — Fun but glitchy

*2026-08-11, version 2.11.0*

I really enjoy this game but the last two days it keeps freezing half way through games and I have to close the app to reset it. The main games are fine, it's glitching on the 4 day event games. I haven't been able to complete a game and it's super frustrating to lose progress mid game.

### 3/5 — Fun for SpongeBob fans

*2026-08-11, version 2.11.0*

This is a typical SpongeBob game based off the fast paced food serving games out there. For my Netflix subscribers this game is available to you, so try it - you might like it.

One problem: NEEDS NEW LEVELS.

I played this game to the end and when you get to the point that has levels like Clownfish Circus, Fancy-ER, it just says “Coming Soon!”

It’s been years, y’all. Give us new levels already!

### 2/5 — PLEASE MAKE IT STOP CRASHING </3

*2026-08-11, version 2.11.0*

I absolutely love this game, I love all the levels, places, foods it’s great honestly. But it won’t stop crashingggggggg!!! How do you expect people to play your game if it crashes all the time! I can’t ever go through more than two levels without it crashing, anytime the leaderboard open it crashes and it open automatically when I move up. Pls pls fix this so I can play in peace, thank you!

### 5/5 — Good game

It’s a good game

### 5/5 — Great Game, Great Concept

*2026-08-08, version 2.11.0*

This is a solid game from Netflix. The only thing I would change would be to add more things to do in the game such as; more mini games, more prizes like things to collect, and more challenge/ event games.

### 3/5 — Jogo com bug

*2026-08-03*

Quando estou jogando um nível, os botões da pagina inicial ainda ficam disponíveis. Apesar de não aparecerem, as vezes estou clicando para entregar o pedido e é como se eu tivesse clicado em um dos botões, e ai o jogo entra em um desses menus. Já estava quase no fim do nível quando isso aconteceu, e foram várias vezes. Agora o jogo buga 100% e eu tenho que fechar e abrir de novo.

### 1/5 — Great game but….

*2026-08-24, version 2.11.0*

It doesn’t carry over your coins so you work hard to complete a level only to start the next stop on the map with nothing. If you don’t have enough coins to play a level it advises “you need x amount of coins to play this level”. How can I get coins when I can’t play levels?! Just let the coins roll over to each level!!

### 1/5 — bug

*2026-08-14, version 2.11.0*

when ever i’m playing there’s a bug where u can press other game-modes n it takes you out of the game mode your playing and disrupts you otherwise i love this game and its very addictive

### 1/5 — Bugged game

*2026-07-31, version 2.11.0*

This game is SEVERELY bugged. It’s constantly crashing. Please update this it’s ridiculous

### 1/5 — No Support

*2026-07-05, version 2.10.1*

I’ve bought everything for the Salty Spitoon but am missing 123 points and cannot unlock Barnacle Boy. There has been no way to contact support, and Netflix says they can’t help with their games.

### 1/5 — Is the game over?

*2026-06-29, version 2.10.1*

New levels have said “coming soon” for years

### 1/5 — Clownfish Circus won’t unlock even though I’m fulling maxed out

*2026-06-27, version 2.10.1*

It’s been more than a year where I can’t get this level to unlock. And I can’t get any app support. Tapping app support in the App Store takes me in a loop to the Netflix app, which then launches Netflix in browser which then logs you in and does nothing. I can’t find the game in the web browser version so it’s just a dead end.

### 1/5 — WTF Netflix

*2026-06-24, version 2.10.1*

What has Netflix done!! Every time I switch to another app, it restarts my game and then demands which profile is playing and then restarts again!! They are ruining the game!!

Also when are you guys going to open up the remaining restaurants in Bass Vegas?

### 1/5 — WTF Netflix

### 1/5 — No Longer Loads After Update

*2026-06-06, version 2.10.1*

Fantastically fun game but sadly no longer loads after I updated it recently.

### 1/5 — Stuck on the intro

*2026-05-29, version 2.10.1*

Has been stuck on the intro page for weeks now, will only proceed to 50% and never complete. Please help to fix this problem. But still, it’s a fun game.
