Super Scribblenauts just barely claims the title as my favourite nintendo DS game. It is a down right impressive game. The concept alone of being able to write in any nouns or adjectives is just plain awesome. It is the kind of game that you can get anybody, even people who hate video games to have fun with. The game has no real storyline, aside from the fact that the character is called Maxwell, but hey thats basically as much as Mario does. Super Scribblenauts focuses much more on the gameplay, this doesn't really make the game any worse it just leaves you to do what ever you want. You can make golden pregnant T-rexs fight telekinetic flying donkeys, well if you want to. What I like so much about it is the way that really the sky is the limit, well the sky and your vocabulary. Having a slightly smaller vocabulary wont make the game worse it just means that you will play it very differently. The game includes a sandbox mode, 121 levels and even the option of creating your own levels. Another thing that is great about this game is that every problem from the first game is fixed, in the first game the controls weren't great and it did glitch a little bit, but everything is better for this game. It has some crazy, and awesome levels and even a final one with a storyline. Another cool thing is the Easter eggs in the game. There are some weird one like ''lol wut'' which gives you a hat that is basically maxwells head but huge, another is the adjective scribblenautical, which im not even going to tell you what it does. You can also type in the names of the devs to get some really weird things, some of the devs just wanted their character to look like them, but some of them have... unusual avatars. One is a light blue slime, and another is a T-rex with a red bandanna, there is event one that is a really short samurai holding a massive sword. There are some things that i found that you could type in that have awesome results, like the 'robosaur' a mechanical T-rex. The 'Shoggoth' a huge blue monster covered in eyes. There is the adjective omnipotent which makes whatever it is applied to immortal, slightly larger and gives them the ability to fly. The adjective 'telekinetic' makes things around the object float. And of coarse the unusual adjective 'pregnant' which makes the object have a baby version of itself after a few seconds. Anyway I thought that this game was great because you could do what ever you wanted, even if you wanted to fight your evil clone with excalibur or ride a flying T-rex into the sunset.

ReplyDeleteAnd I thought that my other m post was huge...
ReplyDeleteAnd yes I do know that this has completely nothing to do with nintendo... oh well
ReplyDeleteThe touch screen controls from the first game were a bit clunky for me, but now that the option of a D-Pad controlled Maxwell is present, the game feels smoother and more fun to play. Still a shame that they removed one easter egg...
ReplyDelete(In the original Scribblenauts, type in gamer, see what comes up. Then, type in virgin...
the touch screen controls are much better as well in this game.
