### 4/5 — The game is really fun, but…

*2025-11-09, version 1.121*

The dynamic island (black pill)  blocks the energy display on iphone 15. I wish there was a way to change the display settings to fix this issue

### 5/5 — I HAVE A SPONGEBOB PLUSHIE

*2025-11-01, version 1.121*

WHOOOOOOOOO

### 5/5 — Game

*2025-10-28, version 1.121*

Really fun I want more games like this

### 5/5 — Events not showing

*2025-10-23, version 1.121*

Hey I just hopped back on the game and I no longer see any events coming in. This isn’t a huge huge issue but with no way to unlock characters other than by leveling up, it’s extremely difficult to find characters that are automated.

### 2/5 — iPhone 17 issue

*2025-10-14, version 1.121*

The camera notch of my iPhone 17 Pro Max is blocking the top UI interface. I cant see anything at the top

### 2/5 — Jogo legal mas extremamente focado em pagar

*2025-10-12, version 1.121*

O jogo é bem legal mas pode ser frustrante e não idle se você não tiver sorte, tem sistemas de baús surpresas, espero q o Brasil proíba isso mesmo.

### 4/5 — House

*2025-10-05, version 1.121*

This game was fun but I can’t get in SpongeBob’s house !.$&#@#$

### 3/5 — events????

*2025-10-03, version 1.121*

i’ve been playing this game for 3 weeks straight and have yet to see an event. makes it impossible to get the mythical characters you need. not to mention the game starts to get boring with no change of scenery or special themes.

### 5/5 — Me encanta

*2025-09-30, version 1.121*

Cuándo habrá nuevos eventos? :( está muy chévere el juego, ojalá lo actualizaran más seguido

### 1/5 — KEEPING THIS ONE STAR UNTIL FIXED

*2025-09-30, version 1.121*

I think it’s insane that I have to rewrite this because in the middle of it; it got wiped.. anyways. I want to start this by saying that I so would love to love this game, but I cannot. The developers do not respond to tickets with issues with the game. It’s so expensive. The game does not work properly. Like it’s just not a good mix. It could be good, but it’s just not especially since they do not want to help when people have problems.

** it stays unless it gets fixed**
