| | | | Description: | | Scribblenauts is a completely original gameplay experience that anyone can play, offering fun for all ages with two styles of gameplay and more than 200 levels. In Scribblenauts, players use the Nintendo DS touch-screen to help their character Maxwell acquire the Starite in each level by solving a series of puzzles armed with their stylus, notepad and imagination. Players jot down the word for any object that comes to mind in order to reach the goal. Every object behaves as it would in the real world, and players can combine countless objects to create completely new scenarios. Every level has more than one written object to use as a solution, opening up the game to endless replay. In Scribblenauts, players advance through ten worlds, each with eleven puzzle and eleven action levels for a total of 220 challenges to complete. Each level has a “par” for the number of objects suggested to finish the level. Beating a level with under par, earns “Ollars”, the in-game currency, which players can use to purchase new levels and music. | | | Features: | |
• Play the entire game in a sandbox style right on the title screen.
• Innovative side scrolling action where objects spelled out to solve spatial puzzles become real and combinable in-game and can be reused.
• Over 30,000 items are available to help you and your imagination collect Starites.
• 220 levels of single player, pick-up and play fun.
• Share levels you create with the level editor via Nintendo DS Wi-Fi Connection.

 WittyNov 18, 2009
My niece says she's having a hard time finishing the game, but at least she is having a unique kind of fun. I personally haven't played it, but I can say that my niece is enjoying every puzzle of Scribblenauts.
fun but has issuesNov 16, 2009
This is a fun game. One problem I have found and I need to call the number on back of gamebox and tell someone about it. My game freezes on a part of the 3rd level. On the one where you have to take the cow to the pasture so the cars can go by. Everytime I get the cow over there the whole screen freezes up and I have to shut my DS off and restart it. Luckily you can just skip this puzzle. I havent come across this again, but then I am only on level 5 now. Other then that it is fun to play.
 Neat idea in theory, but in practice it's not that greatNov 12, 2009
This game a great idea in theory, but the control is so painful that most of the fun is sucked right out. Instead of being sensible and using either the buttons or the D-pad to move your character around, they both move the view, and you have to click on the screen to move your character. This means you will, very frequently, miss something you're trying to click on. Since you're often clicking in a great hurry before you get eaten by a ravenous beast, running over to it is not conducive to continued good health.
Further, the objects are really too big for the tiny screen, and can be very hard to move where you want. Further still, they use weird words for stuff... a 'bridge' conjures a short and fairly useless piece of wood, but a 'bridge ladder' will conjure a very long flat piece, perfect for crossing water or the like. 'Bridge ladder' isn't exactly a normal vocabulary word. The only way to find this out, other than reading reviews, is by carefully inspecting new levels as you arrive and noting down names of useful items for later.
This is a super innovative idea, and I wanted very much to love this game, but in actual fact I got annoyed with it and stopped playing.
Great gameNov 12, 2009
My son got this game for his 8th birthday. As a parent, I think that this is a really great game b/c he has to use his imagination, critical thinking to solve puzzles, practice spelling and typing/locating letters on a keyboard. It is educational & he doesn't even know it. It is rare to find a DS game that is actually educational & this one is.

Spelling Issue SOLVEDNov 08, 2009
My kid had trouble in spelling (He's 7, 8 now). Over a 3-day weekend, he was spelling words like "space ship" "ghost" and "giant". And, he has a slight learning disability. Score, Scribblenauts...you made spelling cool.
