Play SpongeBob SquarePants featuring Nicktoons: Globs of Doom Online

Summary

The Nintendo DS version of SpongeBob SquarePants Featuring Nicktoons: Globs of Doom brings together the wacky crews of SpongeBob, Jimmy Neutron, Danny Phantom, Invader Zim and Tak into six distinct worlds, from Bikini Bottom to outer space. Each new area kicks off with a fast‑paced sliding segment where you collect coins and dodge obstacles, setting the tone for the platform‑action that follows. Composer Todd Masten gave the soundtrack a retro 1950s sci‑fi vibe, layering theremin lines with heavy techno beats and even slipping in odd‑time 7/4 sections to keep the music as unpredictable as the boss fights. Critics were split: while GameZone praised its kid‑friendly chaos, IGN and Metacritic slammed the game for monotonous gameplay, landing the DS version in the mid‑60s on GameRankings. Despite the mixed reception, the title remains a nostalgic crossover for fans of early‑2000s Nicktoons.

Storyline

In SpongeBob SquarePants featuring Nicktoons: Globs of Doom, a rain of orange asteroids splatters goo over Bikini Bottom, brain‑washing Squidward into a zombie‑like pursuer. Jimmy Neutron whisks SpongeBob, Patrick and the others to the Mawgu Lair on Volcano Island, where they meet Danny Phantom, Tak and a newly formed Evil Syndicate (Technus, Beautiful Gorgeous, Thloc and Plankton). Zim arrives out of curiosity while Dib sides with the Syndicate, setting the stage for an unlikely alliance.

The Wise Old Crab supplies alien tech that outfits each hero with personality‑themed weapons. Teleporting back to Bikini Bottom, the team frees Gary, Squidward and Patrick, battles swarms of Morphoids, and defeats a gargantuan, goo‑covered Bubble Bass. During the fight, a massive splash of goo lands on SpongeBob, giving him an intermittent evil voice and a mysterious link to the Morphoid leader.

The Crab then reveals the hidden Vessel of Portentia, a giant robot‑like spacecraft that requires four special components. The heroes dash to Zim’s town to reclaim the first piece from a corrupted GIR, then to Amity Park for a second component after freeing Dash, Tucker and Jazz and battling a haunted Ghost Dog. A third piece is secured in Retroville amid a mall showdown with Jimmy’s plant, and the final fragment is retrieved from Pupununu Village after rescuing Jibolba and Jeera. Each encounter adds more goo to SpongeBob, who begins hearing the voice of Globulous Maximus, the Morphoid ruler.

At the Mawgu Lair the team assembles the Vessel and launches into space, confronting Globulous Maximus—a floating, arm‑wielding asteroid. After defeating it, the Evil Syndicate hijacks the ship, leading to two possible endings. In the "good" ending the heroes destroy the Vessel on the moon, Globulous reforms as "SpongeGlob" and returns everyone to Earth, ending with SpongeBob’s final sneeze that finally expels the lingering goo. In the "bad" ending the Syndicate traps Globulous in a giant glass jar, leaving the villains in control of the Vessel.
