Haven't used it yet. It is a christmas present for my son. But it is packaged nicely and it arrived quickly.
Wonderful for my 3 & 5 yr old boys! December 11, 2008

My 5 yr old son picked this out. I thought it might be a little too hard. However, he and his brother (3 yrs) made it quite far without any parental assistance. I was impressed how they figured out to beat the bosses and levels. Although my youngest does sometimes get frustrated when his older brother wants to go a different route, it is easy for younger children to learn and enjoy. After Spiderman on the PS3, this is my 5 yr olds 2nd favorite game.
 An Idea for the 2009 Nicktoons game November 15, 2008
1 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have an idea for the next Nicktoons game in 2009:
A new villain wreaks havoc in time. And worse, the Nicktoons heroes as we know - originally SpongeBob SquarePants, Timmy Turner, Danny Phantom, and Jimmy Neutron - have been mysteriously missing. When Jenny Wakeman (XJ-9) finds their help note, she realizes they can be in great peril. So Jenny enlists several other Nicktoons heroes - including Tommy Pickles (from All Grown Up!), Invader ZIM, and Mr. Blik - to time-travel through the Nicktoons universe together, rescue SpongeBob and friends, and stop an ultimate baddie once and for all!
I do hope somebody - even Nickelodeon - picks up most of this idea!
Fun, not too hard for kids November 13, 2008

My 4 year old loves his Wii, but he's in between the easy games like Diego and the harder games. It's hard to find games that don't frustrate him, but he did great with this one. He rented it and now it's on his Christmas list. He can't do everything by himself, but he can do most of it. I also like that even if the character falls into the goo over and over, the character doesn't die, so he can keep trying. This is a great game!
Globs of Fun for the Kids! November 7, 2008
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Our boys are 5 and 6, so this game was a "gotta try" that ended up being a "gotta have." If you played the Nicktoons Volcano Island, you'll notice some obvious similarities. In short, as you advance to each level a Nick hero is paired up with a Nick villian. It's fun because the hero and villian aren't in the same show. The boys got a kick out of seeing them together. Each character has his/her own special weapon geared to his/her personality. You advance through different stages battling the globs in different settings based on your kiddo's favorite shows. Bikini Bottom is one of our favorite levels. The thing I don't understand is before each level you have to play a short mini-game where the characters slide down the same course collecting coins and avoiding the obstacles. It seems like a filler, although you can upgrade your powers and weapons with the coins at the lab. There is no way to avoid this part, and it's repetitive. The boys think it's okay, although they have started to ask me if they can skip it. In addition, you don't get to choose which two characters participate in the level; those are predetermined. It would have been nice to be able to choose the characters you want in order to try out different weapons on different levels. As you advance, you have major battles with one character at the end of the level. You must defeat him/her to advance. The boys love "beating" this character. I like the teamwork required in this game to advance. Neither of the boys mind being the villan! So far, the boys haven't beaten all the levels, but they do like to go back into the ones they've won and get a better score. This game is worth the money. There's tons of play to be had, and we aren't even close to being done! Enjoy! FYI: This is much better than "Attack of the Toybots."
