How to Get the New Secret Unit: Squidosaurus Rex Spongebob Tower Defense

Spongebob Tower Defense just dropped one of the most exciting updates yet—Update 22. This patch brings a brand new challenge mode, revamped treasure chests, and most importantly, a powerful new secret unit: Squidosaurus Rex. If you’re wondering how to get your hands on this prehistoric powerhouse and what makes it worth chasing, here’s a full breakdown, also check out the new Update for Spongebob Tower Defense Update 22 guide.

How to Get Squidosaurus Rex

The only way to get Squidosaurus Rex is through the updated treasure chests, where he is now part of the secret unit pool. These chests were refreshed in Update 22, and this new dino-themed unit replaced some older secrets like the Hashling Slasher. Steps to get him:

1. Play Game Modes (preferably Davy Jones difficulty) to earn treasure chests.
2. Open Secret Treasure Chests – Squidosaurus Rex is one of the possible drops.
3. Keep Grinding – He’s a secret unit, so he won’t be easy to pull. Stack up those chests and keep trying.

Squidosaurus Rex Stats and Abilities

This unit is a full AoE attacker, and even at base level, it performs incredibly well compared to older secret units.

Base Stats (Level 1, No Traits):

• Damage: 13,750
• Cooldown: 1.5 seconds
• Range: 28

Max Upgrades (No Traits):

• Damage: 48,125
• Cooldown: 1.3 seconds
• Range: 36.4

Even without traits or levels, Squidosaurus Rex reaches Wave 378 in Endless Mode, which ties it with Dungeon Master as the best-performing secret unit in the game right now.

Is Squidosaurus Rex Worth the Grind?

Absolutely. Squidosaurus Rex has proven it can match and even outperform previous top-tier secrets like the Hashling Slasher and Dungeon Master. With massive AoE, quick attack speed, and the potential for insane trait scaling, this unit is a must-have for any serious player. If you’re grinding for leaderboard ranks or just want to breeze through Davy Jones difficulty, getting Squidosaurus Rex is one of the smartest moves you can make right now.

Update 22 has raised the bar for secret units in Spongebob Tower Defense. Squidosaurus Rex isn’t just a cool-looking dino—it’s now one of the best units in the entire game. Whether you’re a collector or a meta chaser, don’t miss your chance to pull this beast from the treasure chests while it’s still fresh. Start grinding, aim for those secret chests, and good luck getting your very own Squidosaurus Rex.
