Help Super SpongeBob save the day in the SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run mobile app.

SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run
The app is an endless runner mobile game now available for Android, available for iOS since February 12 and coming soon to Amazon app stores. Here, SpongeBob and Plankton race to find the lost Krabby Patty formula through three sea-worthy locations including Bikini Bottom, Apocalyptic Bikini Bottom and a real-world beach. When he is not running, SpongeBob is flying past obstacles with Plankton’s jetpack, floating in a bubble through a coral forest, racing through Bikini Bottom in the Patty Wagon, or has Plankton jumping through his surreal imagination. When the running gets tough, SpongeBob gets heroic as he transforms into Super SpongeBob. The new upgrade allows SpongeBob to knock through any obstacle in his way without risk.

Kids and kids-at-heart are in for a wave of good fun with the game app, as they can dress up SpongeBob in unique costumes such as a caveman and pirate. SpongeBob can also travel between locations with Plankton’s time machine and transform into Super SpongeBob and knock everything out of his path. SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run was developed by Playside Studios, creators of the App Store’s Worldwide Editor’s Choice game Catch the Ark.
