Video game

The Game Boy Advance version of Nicktoons: Battle for Volcano Island, is a Nickelodeon crossover game developed by Halfbrick Studios and published by THQ. It is the sequel to Nicktoons Unite! and much like its home console counterpart, the plot involves Danny Phantom, SpongeBob SquarePants, Timmy Turner (with Cosmo and Wanda), and Patrick Star, who are summoned to save the Volcano Island from an a villain named The Mawgu.

Jimmy Neutron also appears in the game, but only as support and is non-playable.

Synopsis

The game starts with Timmy Turner arriving on Volcano Island and landing in a mysterious jungle, surrounded by purple ooze. Cosmo and Wanda try to teleport him away but quickly discover that someone is interfering with their magic. Timmy then asks Cosmo and Wanda to find someone that could help them. Shortly after, SpongeBob is the next person to arrive on the island and end up on a beach where he is immediately found by Cosmo and Wanda, who tell him that Timmy needs help. The trio then explores the beach for a bit before hearing Danny Phantom calling for help, as his ghost powers aren't working properly on the island. After SpongeBob rescued him, the group continued to explore the beach until they met the Wise Old Crab. The crab then explains that he was the one who summoned them to the island in order to save it from the ancient and evil creature, the Mawgu, who has broken free from his seal and is corrupting the island with his purple ooze.

Afterward, the group decides to contact Jimmy Neutron through his communicator by using an antenna they found. Danny explains to Jimmy their situation, and the latter tells them that the only way to tame the Mawgu is to build a machine called the Rip-Zipper. Jimmy then sends them the plan through the communicator before instructing them to find the parts on the island.

After saving Timmy Turner in the Jungle world, finding Patrick in the Desert world, and gathering all the necessary parts for the Rip-Zipper. The group builds the machine and heads to the volcano in order to confront the Mawgu. After traveling through the Forest world, the group proceeds to climb to the top of the volcano but is chased halfway through by the Mawgu himself. After arriving at the top, Danny activates the Rip-Zipper and seals the Mawgu forever. With the island now back to normal, Timmy then wished for him and all of his friends to return back to their homeworlds.
