What you need to know

Apple's latest Apple Arcade game is now available for everyone to download with SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit now in the App Store.

The game was first teased on Twitter yesterday but few details were provided. The name suggested that we could be in for an endless runner and sure enough, that's what we've gotten.

Trouble has come to Bikini Bottom! The evil "mastermind" Sheldon J. Plankton has once again hatched a plan to steal the secret Krabby Patty formula. This time he has enlisted his army of cousins to capture all of SpongeBob's friends! Play as SpongeBob on his epic, most side-scrolly quest through Bikini Bottom ever! Explore, collect coins and spatulas, and crush obstacles as SpongeBob races to rescue his friends, defeat Plankton's minions and take back the formula. Keep an eye out for your favorite Bikini Bottom residents...you never know who you might run into!

Gamers can download the latest Apple Arcade hotness from the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. There's even a Mac version if you really want to play on your Mac. I'd love to see the download numbers for that!

There's also a pretty hefty privacy statement as well. If you like that sort of thing.
