I’m not much of a gamer, but after reading about this game in Wired, I want to go out and buy a Nintendo DS. Scribblenauts is based on something called emergent game play. Basically, you can help the hero, Maxwell, solve any problem any way you choose just by writing it in. For example, one of the earlier stages is getting a star out of tree. You could write “ladder” in order to get the star out. Or, you could type in “axe” to chop the tree down and get the star. Or, you can write “football” and knock the star out of the tree. From what I understand, the possibilities are endless. It seems like half the fun of playing the game is figuring out what is available and how you can use it. Most heroes have a select number of tools at their disposal to pass from stage to stage. Here…you don’t have that problem…
