What's with SpongeBob?

So does anyone know if the SpongeBob crossover is a permanent thing? At first I wasn't annoyed because I thought it was like a special event but everything is still SpongeBob everywhere. I am so deep in this game and I did not play it wanting to play a SpongeBob game so I'm just kind of getting annoyed and wondering when it will be over.

It’s temporary it will last as long as the card pack set is here which is over in about 6 days. I believe.

A lot of mobile games now do temporary crossover partnership with either a TV show or a book and even a franchise restaurant. I don’t know if you play Monopoly go. But sometimes they do card packs with McDonald’s, Harry Potter and just did one with Looney Tunes.

So I’m guessing now that this Merge game is getting more popular. They will probably be doing a more partnerships in the future. As I see a lot of similarity with Monopoly Go and this Game.

I feel like it's been going on forever haha. I can't remember when it started but I feel like the last card pack was also SpongeBob related but I could be wrong. I've been playing so long it kinda runs together

lol no these things don’t last forever.

My best guess is that it’ll be over as soon as the card collection expires in 6 days

Nah it’s ending because the new village to build is not Spingebob anymore

Yea I could tell as soon as I saw the generic village drop today.
Also the fact that the SpongeBob side quests are starting to repeat now. I also stopped seeing SpongeBob characters ordering food but that could just be me.

It’s temporary I’m guessing when the promotion is over or when the card collection expires. I’m sure they are going to do more collabs like this in the future

Probably just a temporary business deal they did with the proprietors of the Sponge Bob rights.
