Story
One day as Patrick sits below the waves, near Bikini Bottom, two identical items slip down from the surface. One bops him on the head, while the other floats away out of sight. Patrick picks up the one that came to him and realizes that it is a magical pencil that brings whatever is drawn with it to life. He recalls though that there is something that he was told to never draw with one of these pencils, but can't remember exactly what that thing was though. To jog his memory he decides to sketch a little. And as he finishes his final stroke he realizes what it was he was not supposed to draw, SpongeBob's nemesis, DoodleBob, but too late. In that moment DoodleBob springs to life, grabs the pencil from Patrick and disappears. Worried, Patrick tells SpongeBob of his mistake, but can SpongeBob stop the evil DoodleBob before its too late for Bikini Bottom and all its residents?

Good For young/young at heart4
I bought this for my first grader. He really enjoys the game. The only thing I get frustrated with is having to help him through all the screens for drawing things. He reads pretty well, but the game scrolls through the instructions too fast for him. But over all for a younger kid it is a good game. I would not recommend it for an older child(over 9). His cousin was bored by it. Worth the money for my guy :)

fun drawing game4
I'm 32 years old, and I bought this game for myself. I like drawing and like Spongebob, so this game looked like it'd be good. Honestly, it was better than expected. I was able to draw in detail and I got a kick seeing my doodles come to life. This is a game that is really aimed at kids, and if your a "serious" adult gamer, you probably won't like it because it's more drawing than game...but I still liked it. For one level, I got to draw a funny looking car, and I even made the tires look crooked and wobbly on purpose, then I watched as it came to life...it was really funny and enjoyable, and brought out the kid in me.

This is a must have for Spongebob fans! 5
My grandson asked for this game for Christmas and he was thrilled when he opened the package. This is a fun game and allows the kids to be creative as well when playing it. I recommend it for any kid who is a Spongebob fan. My grandson said it was "awesome"!
