Patrick's Adventure (video game)

Patrick's Adventure is a game for the Wii U and PlayStation 3. It is the first SpongeBob game to focus entirely on Patrick. It is published by Nickelodeon and developed by Bad Snail Interactive.



Plot
In the beautiful world of Bikini Bottom, a scientist fish named Dr. Scientist is snatching animals and brainwashing them to make an army of super fish. He intends to take over the Pacific Ocean and shut up everyone who laughed at his ideas. To do this he's requested the help of Fred Rechid, a not-too-bright friend. The brainwash will be made easy by the exposure of the fish to a special vortex made by the evil scientist.

Among these fish is Patrick Star, the soon-to-be general of the army. However, when put into the Vortex, he is rejected, not for his stupidity, but his kind nature. This makes Dr. Scientist throw Patrick away as garbage - his biggest mistake of the day. Before Patrick got the boot he met a charming she-starfish named Debby, and he's not going to give up on her without a fight, even if it means confronting the evil scientist himself.

Patrick takes a hard fall and loses his consciousness. He then wakes up on an abandoned, unnamed city. Protecting this city is the spirit of a fish named Apples. When he learns Patrick is out to fight Dr. Scientist (and thus stop his pollution) Apples decides to help him. They both set out to stop his plans, and so begins the never-ending quarrel between a scientist and a starfish.

Trivia
Puns and References:
 * The boss fight for Ivan Indian was originally much harder, as he had more hitpoints and faster attacks.

 * Explosion boxes were originally simply going to have "BIG BOOM" written on them, but was replaced with a picture of a bomb.
 * The gems Patrick collects were originally going to be just gray, but were later decided to be colored.
 * 1) Rolling Stones is an obvious reference to the band of the same name.
