The '''Nintendo DS version of ''Creature from the Krusty Krab''''' is a 2D platformer {{SBSP}} video game released for the [[w:c:nintendo:Nintendo DS|Nintendo DS]]. It was developed by [[WayForward Technologies]] and published by [[THQ]]. Much like its [[Creature from the Krusty Krab (home console)|home console counterpart]], this game stars {{Link|SpongeBob SquarePants}}, [[Patrick Star]], and [[Sheldon J.

==Gameplay==
The Nintendo DS version is a more simplified 2D platformer that relies heavily on the touch screen. The characters are controlled by swiping them on the direction the player wants them to go while also interacting with the environment. Unique to the Nintendo DS version are cutscenes animated in the style of the show that play at the start and end of each stage.

==Synopsis==
The overall plot is similar the console counterparts. However, there are some differences to the story and the way the levels are ordered.

'''Krusty Krumb''' - This level is a fusion between Supersized Patty and Revenge of the Giant Plankton Monster.

Rooftop Rumble is replaced by '''Shrink Ray Parts''' and takes place before '''Run Away, It Came from Bikini Bottom.'''

===General===
*The timer is missing in a prerelease screenshot, meaning that it wasn't implemented yet.

*There a screenshot of SpongeBob running down the Alaskan Bull Worm's stomach in "Alaskan Belly Trouble." This layout doesn't appear in the game.
