This fall, Scribblenauts 2 will be released for the Nintendo DS.
For those who haven’t played the adorably addictive game, you solve puzzles by writing anything you can think of and using its on-screen representation to assist you. Or, if you’re like me, you can just make random things appear in the home screen and make them fight.
According to the press release, the main thing Scribblenauts 2 will incorporate will be a large list of adjectives. Players will be able to “…change the color, size, elements, behaviors and many other aspects of the object they are describing.” Perhaps the puzzles will be more based on certain types of objects, then?
Although the game has been fun, I’ve found that it’s more of a party trick to show friends than something I want to sit and play for hours. The controls just aren’t smooth enough; I end up getting frustrated and then trying to kill Maxwell. Anyone else feel the same way? Hopefully the physics will be fixed a bit in the new version.
One thing I’m looking forward to are more easter eggs. As you may know, Scribblenauts will not accept proper nouns except for mythological/religious creaures… and Rick Astley. Memes were quite prominent, including things like keyboard cat. I can’t wait to see what they include in the next!
And for those wondering, the coolest thing I ever made happen on Scribblenauts: I put God, Satan, and a gun on the main screen. God picked up the gun and shot Satan over and over until he died. It was amazing.
What’s the coolest thing you’ve done with Scribblenauts?
