Gameplay[]
The gameplay in this game is kind of like the gameplay style of the 3 main Kingdom Hearts games and Sonic Heroes, since you control 3 characters at once, like in Sonic Heroes, but you can also switch between characters, too, like in Kingdom Hearts.
As with Nicktoons: Battle for Volcano Island, you can also unlock alternate costumes for the characters to use in-game by purchasing them from the shop during gameplay.
Worlds[]
- Bikini Bottom
- Green Hill
