DESCRIPTION

The developer behind Lock's Quest and the Drawn to Life series returns with another stylus-driven DS title, this time challenging players to solve more than 200 puzzles by using nothing but their imagination. Each level contains a single star, and the goal for gamers is to help the main character Maxwell acquire that star. What sets Scribblnauts apart from other puzzle-heavy action games is that it provides no specific tools to solve problems, but instead asks players to simply write what they want to use. As long as gamers refrain from requesting curse words, proper names, or copyrighted material, developer 5th Cell promises that every creature, item, or vehicle players request will appear and behave appropriately. There are more than 10,000 different items programmed into Scribblenauts, and at the end of each level players will be graded depending on how many items they conjured, how long it took them to retrieve the star, and how stylishly they solved the puzzle. Another game mode challenges players to solve the same puzzle three times in a row without ever using the same item twice, and creative gamers can use the level editor to design and share their own puzzles via Nintendo's Wi-Fi connection. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide

“I bought a DSi just to play this game - I'm honestly loving it so far - Riding a pterodactyl towing a leprechaun glued to a baby!- This is what my mind craves - Randomness!”

“Went back to Scribblenauts after setting it aside for some other games. Cleared most of the puzzle stages in World 3. I need to do 3-6 and 3-7. I think I've figured out how to do 3-7 with just two...”

“Opened up Worlds 3 & 4. Beat 3-1 & 3 puzzle. These things are rapidly becoming more esoteric. How does a mechanic not fix a broken car (3-2)?”

Scribblenauts (DS) by: covertemporer

“This is a spectacular attempt at a new game style. It can be annoyingly glitchy but it is way too fun to stop playing. small sections are easy to pick up and play and it makes you think pretty hard to get good at it.”

Scribblenauts (DS) by: BurntToShreds

“Good idea, but half-decent execution. The sheer majority of the items are useless (why would I need a defibrillator that DOESN'T EVEN WORK), and the control scheme is mediocre at best. However, some of the puzzles are pretty fun, and it's easy to...”

“I have difficulties with the Tornado level in garden scenario? any help? >< I am thinking about a scribblenaut contest... so far I am trying to see if I can make a "Originality Contest" where you record yourself clearing a level in the most original way possible and upload the video on a preset level. hehe”

“I think I just used a black hole to suck the tornado away. (Black hole is my solution to just about everything. :P)”
