[Exodian Review] {DS} Scribblenauts
Scribblenauts
Write Anything. Solve Everything.
¦» Developer
¦----» 5th Cell
¦» System
¦----» Nintendo DS
¦» Rating
¦----» E (+10)
¦» Game Play - 7.5/10
¦----» So far, the stylus is really accurate, but on certain parts and in certain circumstances, it becomes really hard to pick things up, activate them, or find a place to use the item you created. If Maxwell (your character), is standing on something, then you usually have to move him to pick it up.
The camera angles are also a little difficult, because you use the stylus for nearly everything -- but the D-pad and buttons are used to 'move the screen' around.
I imagine the next time around, they'll get it a lot better -- but since this is the first innovative try on the game, it works for now.
¦» Graphics - 8.5/10
¦----» Being that this is the DS and not like Prototype for the 360, the graphics are only as good as the system, but they're still awesome! I love the artistic impression that the game bring to the table, so that even if you're seventy, you'll love playing this game as much as a five or six year old.
The style of the art is very 'pencil-and-kid' drawn. Things are kinda sketched or built from some kinda paper and set into place. The environment moves and is interactive, cute sometimes.
¦» Audio - 8/10
¦----» You don't really notice the music much, because you're concentrating and thinking so much in the game, that it's stimulating your mind. You don't notice the calm and fun, bouncy music that's going on in the background. (Which you can buy tracks in the 'Ollar Shop.)
¦» Replay Value - (X)/10
¦----» I haven't beaten the game yet, which is why I didn't rate it - but if I had to say anything now, I'd say this game is definitely something you'd replay over-and-over again, because of all the new words and scenarios that you can bring to the table.
Game's Overall Review: 9.5/10
(Rating is based on in-game content, and less on particulars.)
Now, you're probably wondering why the top stuff got a little better than great reviews, but the game itself got a really good rating.
Well -- that's about to be seen.
In this image, you'll see a top section and a bottom.
In the top section, on the left side is how many 'Ollars this person has made. Ollars buy you new levels, avatars, music, and more.
The right top side, those stars are merits. What different skills and things you used during this round.
In the middle is the level 1, section 4.
Par 2 means -- this is how many items can be made (should be made), before you go over the limit of the level.

This, as you can see -- two things have been made.
He typed in Helicopter, and that was made -- and then rope. And the rope was tied to the bottom of the helicopter, to assist the lumberjack in "cutting" the tree down.
The Hint for this level is "Help the lumberjack do his job" -- and there's a sole tree in the middle. Lol.
Amazing things to make in Scribblenauts:
(not a full list, but a lol'packed list)
Trex
Stegosaurus
God
kraken
loch ness monster
mech
mecha
jetliner
zombie (when it hits another being, it turns it!!)
ninja
dragon
lightning
gas mask
witch
velociraptor
robot
poison
shotgun
laser gun
ghoul
vampire (when it hits another being, it turns it into a ghoul)
and MANY, MANY more...
I'll let you know if I find any really funny ones.

Teleporter seems to transport you to some weird place...

This game looks awesome I really want to play it.

The game has over 22,000 words in its vocabulary.

This seems like a good 'ridin the subway train' game.

It definitely is, and there's tons and tons of words, Kujo.
Though I'm skeptical of 22,000 "technically" different words.
Gun will only product a few different looks: handgun, rifle, shotgun, ray gun.
Things like sniper rifle will come out as rifle, but it's accepted.
Laser gun will be ray gun, accepted though.
