SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Krabby Patty is a 2001 video game released by THQ featuring SpongeBob SquarePants.
Story
The game features two separate stories, depending on which side of the bed the player chooses to wake up on. The game features five mini-games.[1]
Wrong Side
Plankton kidnapped SpongeBob's pet snail Gary, so he has to do tasks for Plankton to get Gary back.
SpongeBob's first task, given over a tape recorder, is to get his boating permit. The recorder fails to self-destruct after the briefing.
SpongeBob asks Patrick for help, so Patrick agrees to help SpongeBob collect jellyfish jelly. After the mission, Plankton tells SpongeBob that he needs a collection of Krabby Patties.
SpongeBob watches a group of sea ants go inside The Chum Bucket. Plankton tells them to bring Krabby Patties to The Chum Bucket, but they mishear and bring them to SpongeBob's house. SpongeBob receives his next task.
SpongeBob asks Squidward to help him collect cheese to get Gary back.
The last thing Plankton asks for is a hundred dollar ransom. SpongeBob finds Mr. Krabs' ship to earn the money. He asks SpongeBob to protect his treasure from ghost pirates. Afterwards, he asks Mr. Krabs for the hundred dollars. Mr. Krabs agrees to it. Meanwhile, at The Chum Bucket, SpongeBob's self-destructing tape recorder finally works and destroys the restaurant. Gary escapes and finds SpongeBob.
Right Side
Plankton has created a robot replica of Mr. Krabs to break into the Krusty Krab and steal the Krabby Patty recipe.
Plankton presents Robo Krabs to the sea ants and orders them to use it to take Krabby Patties.
SpongeBob finds Robo Krabs near the Krusty Krab and decides to warn Mr. Krabs when he goes to Mrs Puff's Boating School. SpongeBob earns his boating permit to find him. Afterwards, he crashes his boat and flies out, landing near Patrick.
Patrick takes SpongeBob to a fishing ground, which he mistakes for a carnival. After SpongeBob eats the last piece of bait, he sees Robo Krabs and escapes on a jellyfish.
Sandy asks to go jellyfishing with SpongeBob. After the mission, a jellyfish flies SpongeBob to Mr. Krabs so he can warn him about Robo Krabs.
SpongeBob finds Mr. Krabs and helps him save his treasure from ghost pirates. After the mission, SpongeBob informs Mr. Krabs of Robo Krabs, but he is not worried. Plankton listens in and attempts to fire Robo Krabs when he hears this, but the robot self-destructs.
Reception
SpongeBob SquarePants: Operation Krabby Patty sold an estimated 490,000 copies, totaling $10.9 million. In August 2006, Next Generation listed the game at number 29 on its list of "Top 100 PC Games of the 21st Century", which was arranged by the number of copies sold. Next Generation noted that it "is not the best game ever made, and by most accounts it's not even the best SpongeBob game ever made," but wrote that it still sold well because of the SpongeBob license.[1]
