I Revived the Lost SpongeBob Game Nickelodeon Doesn't Want You to Play

I'm not dead. One last thing I could've mentioned in the trivia section is that in the trailer footage at 39:25 you can see the Elf Apartments in the inventory but they have no Elf character showing with them, and I have no idea what that's about.

I’m glad I ain’t the only one who thinks “JASON” whenever I see a .json file

Honestly one of my favourite genres of videos is "Some guy talks about his very specific desire to play some old incredibly obscure game and so he spends ages trying everything as he gives a bit by bit rundown of everything he did until it finally worked" so I very much enjoyed this

I love it when people do this! Saying "screw you big companies, I'm going to keep playing your game!" and playing a dead game is one of my favorite thing to do. I am still trying to revive the Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles game, which I haven't been able to do yet because I need the cache data.

All of the savedata being in a .json is. Fucking insane

My mom and I used to be obsessed with this game. I actually still have it on my iPad, it still works and I have Gary unlocked. He, along with every other character, wants these birthday cake items from the birthday blowout event… which are literally impossible to make now, lol. My mom says it still works on her phone, but some of the graphics, (such as most of the buildings.) are corrupted and show up as a weird garbled mess of graphics. This was a fantastic video, really hoping it gets more traction, great work man.

ah yes back when facebook had 100s of sims type games for everything like cars and dragons and the simpsons and i guess spongeboi

Him uploading everything to the internet archive so nobody has to go through all this again is such a boss move that rarely happens, thank you for this

I think the fact that you explicitly remember so much about small details and exact operations of the game making this entire video possible is pretty damn wild lol

I used to love playing this game as a kid, but MAN, was it so broken and unpolished. This game really deserved more love and support.

one of the best 40 minutes i've wasted watching content about a game i've never played in my life. Presentation is really nice

"Your not getting the game." "But I want the game I want SpongeBob" A few quotes from a certain video referencing this game that caused someone to end up on the news!

Got very engrossed in this video only to find out it had 700 views. Definitely deserves more

The virgin SpongeBob: Adventures In A Jam. The Chad SpongeBob Moves In

I still remember watching the ads for this game that’d air inbetween commercial breaks, it really was just a kid friendly version of Simpsons Tapped Out! with maybe a little bit of The Quest for Stuff from Family Guy

I remember this game! I feel sorry that the algorithm didn't work on you, this deserves way more views! edit: woah the view count has accelerated!

Good video man i like when you reanimated spongebobs corpse

I'm glad to see someone not only take the time to talk about this quirky little bit of Spongebob history (one myself I enjoyed when it existed), but also fully archive it as best they can for people to still play and get a close look into at least some of the inner workings of the app. Amazing video, absolutely criminal this hasn't even broken 10k views yes. Hope that changes!

i played simpsons tapped out a long time ago and then stopped for a few years and then i tried logging on again and my entire city was gone...

As someone who participated in the Fry Cook Games event, I believe the Colosseum was either directly given at some point (like a community prize or smth) or just plopped right in the land expansion with the Health Store at the beginning. I don't remember being able to move or store it, though.
