Editor's Note: OK. You've experimented with Scribblenauts for a couple of weeks now. Bitmob wants to hear about your rad Scribblenauts adventures, and Andrew kicks off our Scribblenauts call-out with a story of his own. -Jason
Scribblenauts has been riding the hype wagon since its remarkable trade-show demos earlier this year. The press was abuzz with possibility and opportunity.
Fortunately, it's delivered, and in a big way. While there are some complaints, this game's truly the right step for all games in...well, we're not sure which direction. But at least it feels right.
You need only hit Twitter to find some of the havoc that gamers have been wreaking with the game.
But this isn't a normal call for reviews. We want you, the Bitmob Community, to let us know what craziness you've concocted with the game. We want to hear your most twisted experiments, most convoluted solutions, and most spectacular failures.
Post your Scribblenaut stories in the Mobfeed with the tag Scribblenauts Story. In a week or so, we'll come back and post the most ridiculous scenarios you've come up with.
And to kick us off, here's the story of my first 10 minutes with the game:
The Wrath of God
Obviously, the first item I wanted to see was "God." And there he was -- an old man in a robe. Naturally, my next inclination was to pit him against "Satan" to figure it all out once and for all. I'm pretty sure this is how most games of Scribblenauts begin.
The fight was anticlimatic, with God coming out on top.
I figured that it wasn't Satan that could do God in, but maybe people could. Quickly I typed in "Satanist," but that didn't work. I did see "Separatist," and I went with that. Nothing happened, but by this time God had moseyed elsewhere.
Having a new toy, I tried "President," who was promptly killed by my Separatist. Interesting. Again, the Separatist went on his own way, and I typed in "Democrat" and then "Republican," both of whom were exactly the same, and they were exactly like the President before his demise.
Insightful commentary within itself.
By this time, both God and the Separatist came back, and I suppose, not feeling comfortable with the powers that be, the Separatist continued his coup, only to be struck down by God Himself.
One nation under God, indeed!
Not sure whether God loves bipartisan democracy or just takes it out on those who perpetuate violence, I reset the lot and tried God vs. Separatist.
Same result.
I tried God vs. "Bear." God won.
Then "Shark." God won. (It was an unfair fight; the poor shark was fish out of water).
Then "Tyrannosaurus." God won.
But he didn't bother with the "Ibex" or "Triceratops."
So, in conclusion, God is an America-loving vegetarian. Or an America-loving big-game hunter, and with that white beard, I'm happy to conclude that God is Ernest Hemingway.
Eventually I tried "Wolf," which attacked God from behind and did him in. Apparently, God has hit points.
Looking for more craziness, I put a "Terrorist" in a "Jet"....
Well!
My goodness! That was a little shocking!
Anyway, can't wait for what the rest of you come up with.
