| − | The game-play in this mode is completely different from the main game, as it involves playing as actual SpongeBob characters - [[SpongeBob]], [[Patrick]], [[Sandy]] and [[Mr. Krabs]] - rather than a hero drawn by the player. The aim is to draw a custom piece of treasure, and secure it for as long as you can until the 60 second time runs out, gaining coins as it's held. Other players can attack the one holding the treasure by jumping on them, diving at them or using one of a few powerups that appear throughout the level. The player with the most coins in their possession at the end of the match wins. | + | The game-play in this mode is completely different from the main game, as it involves playing as actual SpongeBob characters corresponding to the player order - [[SpongeBob]], [[Patrick]], [[Sandy]] and [[Mr. Krabs]] - rather than a hero drawn by the player.
