Brittany of Insert-Disc looks back at Scribblenauts and it's unfortunately missed potential.
"And then I began my journey with dear Maxwell and his silly hat. Each world has twenty-two stages; half are puzzle based, half are action based, though I felt there was no real difference between the two. When you are in a world, you will start off with the puzzle stages, but if you hit the little explosion tab in the bottom right corner, it changes over to the action puzzles. When you begin a world, only the first level of the action and puzzle stages will be unlocked. As you beat levels, you will unlock the other levels of that world."
Scribblenauts has long been a series lauded for its wealth of adjectives and nouns. Sometimes, it's astounding to discover exactly how far this can go, and that's why we have gone to the trouble of scouring for the most obscure and curious words that somehow yield results.
Matt from FuzzyPixels presents a list of the top five puzzle games of all time, as well as handing out a couple of special awards.
Having recently found out about Scribblenauts, the fate of 5th Cell is hard to witness.
the problem of scribblenauts is that it just couldn't work on Playstation/Xbox... Nintendo, PC and Mobile was not enough to support the franchise
Why wouldn't it? Think it would work great with the PlayStation second screen app. Doesn't Xbox have something similar too? Use the phone or tablet to type and the controller to play.
I'm not real sure a 2nd screen is even necessary. I've only played the DC Comics one, but they could have easily mapped all of the buttons from the touch screen to a controller to pull up the menus.....
