The SpongeBob SquarePants Premium Level Kit is a DLC level pack available for $4.99 USD or £3.99 GBP. The pack is based on the popular Nickelodeon cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants, and has five SpongeBob themed levels; a hub with entrances leading to four main levels, each fit for one of the four heroes of Bunkum. The pack contains many SpongeBob themed assets, including stickers, decorations, objects and costumes. Whilst the levels themselves are host to a variety of references to the television series, the story is bespoke for the pack.

Plot

In the underwater town of Bikini Bottom, Plankton has put to action another one of his sinister plans. He has built four machines around Bikini Bottom that are emitting disgusting and unattractive Krabby Patty knockoffs! The patties are polluting the town, and only Sackboy and friends are there to destroy these fiendish devices. Explore the Krusty Krab, the Chum Bucket, Jellyfish Fields, and The Flying Dutchman's ship to rid the places of these machines, and also eradicate the "ew" patties.

Levels

The DLC is a level pack that contains five levels:

Bikini Bottom

When entering Bikini Bottom there is a short news broadcast where Johnny Elaine, the iconic fish-head anchor, reports about Plankton's evil plot and how his sources say that Sackboy and friends are there to save the town. The broadcast ends and Sackboy exits Mrs. Puff's Boating School in a top-down boatmobile. SpongeBob greets you and guides you towards Jellyfish Fields.

After your journey through the Jellyfish homeland, additional parts of the city open up and the other 3 locales are unlocked, ready to be cleaned from the disgusting patties!

You finally have rid the town of machines, and possibly collected a sticker (complete The Chum Bucket), which if try to go near a big dumpster, you can stamp it on, and you can race around the area. After which, you can meet with SpongeBob, congratulating you but worried about the remaining ew patties. SpongeBob shows you the exit, and a news broadcast airs. Elaine reports of the destruction of the diabolical devices, and praises the heroes.

If you fully eradicate the town of Imposter Patties, you will get a large number of prizes.

Jellyfish Fields

The level takes place in the Jellyfish Fields, home of the Jellyfish. Here, SpongeBob takes you through the area, instructing you to find six of these patty knockoffs by looking through everywhere in each of the four places, and to destroy Plankton's evil machine. He also then introduces you to the Floaty Fluid, a special material that acts as a more isolated type of water that you can swim through. The material is used throughout the level as ways to traverse, not as actual water.

The Flying Dutchman

This spooky level is on The Flying Dutchman's ship, home the Flying Dutchman, the green pirate ghost. As Swoop, you fly and swoop across the ship in search of the machine and ugly patties. 

The Krusty Krab

Ah.... yes. The finest patty cookers in the sea. In Mr. Krabs' business, you'll find six patties and the machine that Plankton somehow put as the agile OddSock.

The Chum Bucket

So, the lair of it all, the horrible Chum Bucket. As Toggle, you will be switching forms to get through every nook and cranny to find six patties that Plankton's machine has hidden. For some reason, even if no one goes to his restaurant, no one will notice those patties.. how illogical.

References

As befits a series that has lasted as long as SpongeBob SquarePants, the five levels have various winks and nods to moments from the show. These references largely cater torwards the first eight seasons of SpongeBob SquarePants.

General

• I'm Your Biggest Fanatic - The pickle sticker is referred to as, "Nerdy Pickle", a name Patrick gives to the episode's main antagonist, Kevin C. Cucumber.
• Nasty Patty - The imposter Krabby Patties that are the center of Plankton's ploy are represented by the titular Nasty Patty.

Bikini Bottom

• I'm Your Biggest Fanatic - The Jellyfish King overlooks the Level Link to Jellyfish Fields.
• Doing Time - The Bikini Bottom Jail can be explored in the map, and going to the top right corner of the area will reveal a pair of yellow and pink rocks. These rocks were disguises SpongeBob and Patrick wore in that episode in an attempt to bust Mrs. Puff out of jail.
• Snowball Effect - The player can drive to a balcony overlooking Goo Lagoon, where Patrick can be seen flailing his arms on the ground, leaving a circular pattern in the sand. In the actual episode, Patrick does such an action during a failed attempt to make a snow angel.
• One Krab's Trash - Smitty Werbenjägermanjensen's #1 shaped tombstone can be seen on the path to The Flying Dutchman, as do a pair of Owl Clams similar to the one that startled Mr. Krabs.
• The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie - The Patty Wagon can be found in the Krusty Krab's parking lot.

Jellyfish Fields

• Jellyfishing - Squidward can be seen near the beginning of the level, bound to a wheelchair in a full body cast as he rolls after a jellyfish with a net. In the episode, Squidward is left in this state due to a biking incident involving him accidentally swallowing a jellyfish, and he has to go jellyfishing in this state.
• Plankton! - By waiting long enough at the beginning of the level, Plankton's live action Labrador Retriver will pop up, wearing Sandy's helmet.
• I'm Your Biggest Fanatic - The Jellyfish King appears numerous times in the stage, either as an ally or adversary. Kevin C. Cucumber also appears as an obstacle, mocking the player from the safety of his robot in the Jellyfish King's likeness.
