• If the player gets 4 eels, they lose. If the player gets 3 escalators, they win.

Role in series

In "Sailor Mouth," SpongeBob and Patrick are playing the game at SpongeBob's house after they learn about the bad word and promise they would not say it. SpongeBob keeps rolling eels while Patrick keeps rolling escalators. After SpongeBob loses the game, he uses bad word number 11. Patrick goes to tell Mr. Krabs but he accidentally also says the bad word, and they both race to the Krusty Krab to tell Mr. Krabs about each other.

In "SpongeBob's Place," it can be seen on the floor of SpongeBob's house when SpongeBob is bored.

In "Plankton Gets the Boot," it can be seen on the floor of SpongeBob's house when SpongeBob and Plankton are watching a movie.
