User Reviews for SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off

It IS a fun game, just some things need tweaked

The game is super fun, I love these diner quick serve type of games, I personally have no problem with the waiting times for upgrades. I usually play the game as much as I can until I have enough money saved up and get stuck, and then just buy all the upgrades I want before bed so when I wake up I have tons of new things. My issue is idk if it’s a bug or what but I’ve completed Ham a Lot and was waiting to open the next restaurant, the juice bar, but it’s still locked? I have almost completely upgraded Ham a Lot, all interiors almost all kitchen upgrades, but I have that little icon on the left where it says 0/1 like I haven’t competed a level or something? Doesn’t make any sense because I’m in the infinite levels of the restaurant, like I’m on level 106 of Ham a Lot, so idk what else to do. I’ve also experienced that glitch where you’ll beat a level and then it takes you back to the game screen and you can’t do anything, no more customers are coming and food is burning but you can’t close anything out, I just have to restart the game. Very weird. I’m more so worried about getting the juice bar, like it’s been days since I’ve finished this restaurant. It’s almost like the progress meter is for the juice bar but I’m in Ham-a-Lot. Will the new restaurant ever open???

Pay to win

At first I was thrilled to have infinite levels and challenges. And then the father along I progressed I realized this game forces you to get gems in whatever way possible. They have levels that literally force you to upgrade certain equipment. You physically cannot progress farther without upgrades. Additionally, when you go to restart or quit a level it throws up a screen that if you click it it spends your hard earned gems. I mean literally right after you try to quit a level it throws up 2-3 screens that want you to confirm the quit or spend gems to get boosters, or extra time, customers etc. I love cooking games and I do well with them, this game really triggered me at how unfair it was. You have to either pay money or watch ads (which are limited) it really creates a game that is stacked against you. I liked this game a lot until I progressed to around Hamalot. It’s forcing these upgrades earlier and earlier the farther you get. I get it it’s Nickelodeon but come on really? If a kid was playing this game there’s no doubt whatsoever they’d click the spend gems button by accident, like I have as an adult, it ruins it. Not to mention the numerous pop ups begging to buy deals etc. not worth it when they throw other pop ups meant to make you accidentally spend gems. This is really disappointing Nickelodeon. I did expect more from you guys. So money hungry smh.

NEVER change the new Food Truck game!

After taking a long hiatus from playing, the food truck game being changed has brought me back everyday. Before, it was almost impossible to win the food truck event. At first, I used to get excited when it rolled around to a restaurant I actually had played before, but even the restaurants I was really good at were impossible to win all the rounds in the food truck game unless I used power ups. I stopped even bothering to try with the restaurants I had never played. It was impossible to learn restaurants you had never played before and also win. It's so much better now, I hope you never change it back. It's nice to have a new challenge everyday that you can actually win. It also gives you some diamonds. This is one of the few games I've actually spent real money on, for diamonds, and one of the reasons I stopped playing was asking myself, if I can earn barely any diamonds in game, what's the point? I will still buy diamonds every once in a while, but it's nice to have ways to earn them in-game too. Otherwise it starts to feel like a scam.One way the game can improve is if you allow a way to opt out of the Fry Cook Games for a cycle. Sometimes I want to play casually and don't want to worry about my rank. You literally can't do that as of right now half the time because you only get around a day or so in between games.

Unplayable but Fun

This game is fun, even for an adult like me. The problem is the every single ad that pops up after every game. I mean ads pop up even if I’m not trying to earn gems or get in-game currency. This is ridiculous and pathetic for a billion dollar corp like Viacom. Maybe don’t include Viacom in the opening credits if you all don’t have their money to actually fund the game? Why would I ever spend $40+ for gems that are absorbed in 3 in-game purchases or less? On top of the fact that in order to purchase the Bart-n-Mart items you need to advance in the game, you have to have gems AND coins. Whoever on the development team thought that people would be gullible enough to spend their money on that is a first-class idiot. I can’t imagine that parents are letting their kids drain money for a phone game app with lackluster incentives. Again, the game is fun, nostalgic, graphically beautiful, but extremely flawed with the pay-wall. I get that developers need to make their money. Please crawl from under the rock you’re living and realize most of your player base cannot afford the pay-wall. I mean what’s the point of earning coins if I have to use gems as well to even buy anything? Get a grip and fix it. Deleting until fixed.

Great game but one major flaw

Ive been playing this game for a bit so far and i love the game a lot! In my opinion its harder than cooking fever (especially the timed levels god those are chaotic) anyway, i love the game a lot, however i have a big problem with it. The double tap to trash something mechanic is very annoying and has made me lose many great games simply from that one simple mistake of double tapping. This is cause when you are a competitive player you’re moving your fingers at lightning speed and sometimes accidentally double tap which is a nightmare for the “no trashing food” challenge levels. Please either remove this mechanic or at least add an option in the settings to turn it off and make it so i manually have to drag it to the trashcan. EDIT: i just thought of a genius idea! You should remove the double tap to trash item mechanic and replace it with a “hold to trash” mechanic. And you should make it so burnt items get trashed by simply just tapping them cause cmon what’re you gonna do with a burnt item aside from trashing it. Please add this cause the double tap mechanic has made me lose so many good rounds on the no trashing food challengesEDIT 2: if you are gonna add my idea for the “hold to trash” mechanic, you should make it so we can adjust the time needed in the settings to trash the item. 3 seconds being max and .5 seconds max for least time and 1.5 seconds default

I really want to love this game..

The game itself is very fun but it’s really hard for me to enjoy. I’m actually surprised it has such a high rating due to how glitchy the game is and how they’ve totally neglected to fix this with every upgrade. Every time the game goes to the load screen it crashes. My iPad is up to date, I’ve tried deleting it and reinstalling it. I’ve contacted customer service and they gave me a bunch of free gems but the problem continues. One update wiped out all my fame points for sandys BBQ. Not the items I’ve purchased and upgrades just the pearls so it looks unfinished. Also recently I finished the upgrades for both the salty spittoon and the last chance coffee and yet even though all upgrades and decor have been purchased I don’t have enough fame points to open to last chest. And the pancake challenge for the food truck is rigged. You literally don’t provide enough customers for one level. I played through it using every upgrade and each time I was short 1 customer. Also the fact that you have to pay both gems and coins for items is useless and greedy. Pick one or the other and make the upgrades cheaper. I have paid some money in this game for gems, like the piggy bank once in a while, but I won’t be doing that again. It’s just a waste and you obviously don’t care about your players. Do better. Fix this.

Using too many diamonds

This game is awesome, but the reason I gave it 2 stars is because of the usage of the diamonds. Other cooking games I’ve played, you use the cash/coins you make from completing levels to upgrade your cooking equipment, i.e. the stove, the skillets, etc. However, with this game you have to use your cash AND diamonds, which forces you to do your best to earn them, or you have to pay cash to buy them. So you have to spend thousands PLUS 12 diamonds just to upgrade your stove. Please change this. This is the only bad side about this game. You are literally forcing us to spend money just to play this game. Can’t developers just ever make a game that doesn’t require us to spend our money? Can’t we just play just for the fun of of playing? If you won’t change this, at least change the amount of diamonds that we get for completing certain tasks like for instance the fry cook games or the food truck. You only give us 3 diamonds every time we open one of those crates or sometimes, if we’re EXTREMELY lucky, we’ll get 5. Please make it so that we can just buy upgraded equipment with only the cash/coins that we make like all the other games do. If this doesn’t change, I will be forced to uninstall this game. I am not paying money just to play a game. It’s not that serious. I will continue to play the free ones.

Great game but....

I think this is a great game first of all. But, like everybody else I have a problem with the fact that you have to have money AND gems for a lot of the upgrades, which doesn’t make any sense at all. I think the problem is is that the game doesn’t start off with you having a decent amount of gems so you’re not left with that much freedom with what you want to do with your upgrades, so you’re pretty much stuck with having to do the pancake levels a bunch of times to get achievements and even then, you only get ONE GEM for doing that. Coupled with that, by the time you get to unlock the Krusty Krab you’re pretty much dirt poor with gems bc you’ve already spent it all on upgrading your pancake stand and that the game doesn’t give you that many gems to begin with, and don’t get me even started with that it doesn’t give you that much options to be able to go get gems. And that’s only my first major problem. The second one is the game mechanic “Triple-tap feature” where if you tap your plate three times, it’ll put your plate of food in the garbage. IMO, that’s a horrible mechanic. I have accidentally pressed on the plates with food three times by accident multiple times and it makes me reset the level bc you’re not allowed to dump your food sometimes

Love the game, hate the unusual bugs…

I contacted support about this already, and they told me they’d give me support and such to get a head start upon starting a whole new game. The reason for that is somewhere along the way in playing the game, as I reached Sandy’s Treedome, I somehow gained access to goo lagoon’s first first restaurant as the Fry Cook Games event was taking place there, long before I completed Sandy’s treedome, and from there on, the storyline and its cutscenes weren't working right, up until I reached Ham-A-Lot…where the cutscenes at both there and the juice bar were working for awhile until I played the early levels of Salty Spittoon..now, I can no longer progress the story it seems as it thinks I’ve completed Ham-A-Lot..but won’t realize I’m at the Salty Spittoon..Granted, I love the game and it’s mechanics, the micro transactions and use of both gems and coins to buy stuff is a bit tough to swallow in dealing with…but I love its use of prioritizing time and task management, keeps you on your toes, I just wish the developers could fix these types of bugs so that the game could be much more enjoyable, hence the four stars, but tiltingpoint, I don’t know what has to be done, but please, find a way to fix this glitch, I’m seriously not sure if I want to start this process all over again, and potentially risk another glitched out storyline. Thank you, and please consider trying to reboot the servers of the game or something.

I’m at the kelp restaurant level

Since recent update lots of issues. The achievement says I earned a gem and when I click on the achievement to collect there is nothing! This happened 4 times already. Also the free ad says theirs a ad to watch to receive a free gem but when I click on it there is no ad to watch. It is also on several occasions when I click the free ad to watch it takes me to the submarine to play that cook off. Like it did this morning. I also have played to the point where it said I received treasure chest to win my gems but when I click on the collect the gems the gems never went to my account. Please correct correct on the game-when playing it looks like I lost that cook off usually a box pops up to ask to quit or replay: but twice a box popped up and took what gems I earned to continue the cook off without replaying “only to lose it right after it took my gems.”You need to remove that pop up because it’s a sneaky way to rob the gems you just earned and it’s usually pops up after winning a goal and winning 17 gems!!! Smh I had this happen several times at this point I thought of deleting the game as it’s frustrating to work hard to win the gems to up grade and then once you reach over 15 gems you start having that box pop up to lose them :(
