Product Description
Scribblenauts DS
Amazon.com Product Description
Scribblenauts is a unique single player side-scrolling action game for the Nintendo DS that challenges players to solve spatially oriented puzzles like no game before it. In it players use an in-game notepad/keyboard, as well as the touch screen and stylus of the Nintendo DS, to conjure up solutions to the obstacles placed in the path of the game's hero. Solutions are manifested in the form of literally thousands of items--many very unexpected--that are called up and take on a life of their own, resulting in puzzle-solving that is limited only by the player's imagination. 
Get creative in collecting Starites.

Based around 2D side-scrolling action and word play, the premise of Scribblenauts is simple; quite literally, anything you write, you can use and reuse in the game. Players use the DS' touch-screen and the in-game notepad/keyboard to help their character, Maxwell, as he moves throughout 220 increasingly difficult levels on his never-ending quest for the star-like "Starites." But it is not as easy as reaching up and plucking a Starite. Attaining them requires Maxwell to solve spatially oriented puzzles. To do this players describe objects via the notepad/keyboard, which in turn appear on the game screen and facilitate the starite making its way to Maxwell. There are literally thousands of items in the game, both utilitarian like ladders, ropes, cars and buses, to the outlandish items, such as invisibility cloaks, pirates and black holes. There are time limits on levels, as well as a limitation to the number of items that can be used per level. But regardless of these restrictions, the game is all about experimentation, imagination and endless replay value as players open their minds to the nearly limitless possibilities that are sure to make Scribblenauts unlike any side-scrolling platformer they have ever played. Key Features - Create Your Own Interactive Experience - Objects you write down in the game are only limited by your imagination.
- Everyone Can Play - Scribblenauts features all-ages pick-up-and-play fun for everyone.
- Touch-screen Controls - Easy to pick up and play on Nintendo DS. If you can tap, you can play.
- Unlimited Replay Value - Use less objects to increase your score, or experiment with different objects for endless replay value. Write anything; solve everything.
- Playground Mode - Play the entire game in a sandbox style right on the title screen.
- Create and Share - Share levels you create with the level editor via your Nintendo DS Wi-Fi Connection.
- Innovative New Title from Leading Developer - 5th Cell, the creator of the Drawn to Life franchise and Lock's Quest, has experience creating high-quality, innovative DS games.

My 7 year old grandson plays this game every day. It is nice to see a fun game he enjoys without all the complicated rules and sometimes violence. Even his mother plays it when he is in school. Very addictive! It is educational without them knowing it. Someday they will let Grandma play it, Lol !!
Great game to help kids with their spelling February 25, 2010
E. Hill
I bought this for my 9-year old boy, and he really enjoyed it - it's also a great way for him to practice spelling. I actually liked it too (I'm 48), as it's fun to make up stuff and see how the game interacts with your creations.
You will never see your kids again February 24, 2010
C. Wilson (Oklahoma)
My 9 year old and 6 year old can't get enough of this game. They love to type in words and see what falls from the sky. The number of things you can tell it to draw is amazing. And my kids normally type the words on a keypad instead of trying to write the words. You can go through levels with figuring out challenges to get to each level or you can just mess around typing out what you want the game to draw. My son loves the game Drawn to life and I think it might be pretty similar in style. It's a must have for kids.
