I think this is a great game that all the family will love and enjoy, especally if you love artistic creation, or have the original game (ScribbleNauts).Overall I give Super ScribbleNauts 4/5 because there are a couple of things that I was expecting to be better...One: Not all the words that you put in are recognised, eg, rugby or two-headed.Two: The new levels are not as good as the old ones - they somehow don't look as good, plus they are easier.Although some of the game is bad, most of it is good, so here are some of the good bits...One: You can create nearly anything you want, eg, a magical, fast, flying, light blue, funny, clever, happy Chinese Dragon!Two: You can (as in the first game,

I wasn't sure about the concept of this game before I ordered it - I mean how would "Think it. Write it. Solve it." really work in practice? Would it really be possible? Well, in short, yes! The game is basically made up of 10 'levels' and 2 bonus levels which are a bit different in style. Each level has a series of different scenarios which you have to solve. There is no continuous story so each scenario is like a separate mini game. You will be shown a visual problem, for example: "Help the man safely jump off the cliff" - the man is already in a flight suit so the obvious answer would be to write 'parachute' (I also tried 'wings' which worked quite nicely) - the item will appear on screen,

I've never played the first Scribblenauts, so I can't compare the two, but I can certainly give you an idea of how great this one is.Unlike most games, Scribblenauts doesn't follow an actual storyline, well, not really, instead you are given little missions to complete, some of which can be completed in more ways then one. Put off? Don't be.You face these mission with the most ferocious weapon of them all . . . your pencil and notepad!You play a character called Maxwell in this game who has the power to create anything with his paper and pen. And I really mean anything. By tapping the pencil and pad icon in the corner of the screen you bring up the "writing screen". Here, you can type whatever you want,

Being a massive fan of the original Scribblenauts, this was always going to be a guaranteed purchase for me (mainly because you can pick it up dirt cheap almost anywhere). I wholeheartedly recommend this game for anyone with a DS, DSLite, DSi, DSiXL, 3DS, 3DSXL or the future 3DSiSPXL.Can't really think of what else to say on this one to be honest - basically it's a cracking game, essentially similar to Scibblenauts, but with the rubbish stylus control method gone, all the awkward impossible "action" levels scrapped and replaced with a much cleaner, well presented hub. Plus, you can now use adjectives to alter your creations! So instead of a dragon, you can have a giant pink hungry zombie dragon.

I got my 10 yr daughter her first DS - a 3DS - for Christmas. I bought her Lets draw and the 3D Nintendogs & cats ...(I know you shouldn't look - together I paid £25 more than they are currently for sale!) -and a few preowned games (My Sims, My Sims animals -she likes my Sims animals africa on the Wii).On the discount day (Black friday?) this popped up at £6.99 - cheaper than preowned with good reviews and so I bought it as an 'extra'....and I am so glad I did!It is far and away her favourite....The first game she played was Nintendogs - for about 30 mins - and then Lets draw for another 30 mins - same for My Sims animals - she said all 3 were boring...then she played with My Sims which she

We bought this as a little stocking gift for my 7 year old son this Christmas on the basis of the excellent reviews and the fact that my son likes computer games but really doesn't like schoolwork. To be honest I wasn't even expecting it to be touched for several weeks due to the large "Think it, WRITE it, Solve it" on the front of the box. But ... he has spent an hour on it this evening and had to be prised off it for his bedtime story (which he normally is racing to). We have heard nothing from him but little giggles, oohs and ahhs, or the occasional "Mum what's another word for ...?" or "How do you spell ...?" .My only concern has been the 12 rating on it and the fact that the majority of the words he's asking about are violent (explosives,

We took this game on holiday and it occupied my child on the journey and on-and-off throughout the holiday. I played along a few times and it's a challenge at first until you get the gist of the game. Some of the puzzles were a challenge and there's a bit of lateral thinking involved here. Once you get the hang of it, it gets a bit addictive. In the end, the whole family was involved. There is a good choice of themes (from cowboys & indians, pirates, astronauts, dinosaurs, princesses, eskimos, sports and all manner of animals - some, of which, were very appealing), so most players will find something to interest them. My child (10) has dyslexia,

Super Scribblenauts is an updated version of Scribblenauts. The basic idea is that you solve increasingly complex puzzles by writing what you need to help you. It could be as simple as a way to reach a platform high above your head (think fairy wings, a jet pack or even a teleporter) or as challenging as creating a creature that has the characteristics of 4 other creatures in boxes around it (think giant, metallic, furry mouse). Although the dictionary is very Americanised, there is still a lot you can do as an English user. There were a few things it doesn't seem to recognise (exhaust being one that frustrated me greatly!) but if you are creative enough you can find ways around it.

I bought this for my 8 year old daughter, and it's a complete hit! She gets really absorbed in trying to solve the clues, and it often becomes a family affair trying to think laterally about things like opposing adjectives (ugly/cute) and lots of different words for "monster". It really gets the brain working, but you soon get the reward in the form of earning a starite. This then releases another bit of the game to play.My daughter says that once you get started it gets harder as you go along - great for keeping the interest. She's also got to think about her letter formation as one way of inputting your words is by using the stylus to write them - if you're not careful you end up with some very odd words,

We've had Super Scribblenauts for about 2 months now: both my kids girl (8) and boy (11) love it. Positives: I like it as it is word based rather than platform or shoot em up. The kids like the verbal challenge and the fact that you can bypass a level if stuck. You can choose your own Maxwell avatar. You can also play on 2 strands - single response or if you like a challenge a triple response to a question, which makes the game last longer. If you get fed up with a level you can always decide to play creatively just to see what will happen rather than to solve the puzzle. Negatives: watch out for American vocabulary eg sidewalk rather than pavement.

Super Scribblenauts is a very fun game.It allows you to write (as you probably know anyway) ANYTHING!Myself being an owner of the first game, Scribblenauts, am delighted to see the newly added adjectives. They add so much more depth to the game, because instead of a bathtub, you can now have a Winged Spotted Helpful bathtub.The levels are a little easier than the first, but the beauty is that you can play them over and over using different methods.There are alot more puzzle levels which i personly find alot more fun than the action ones.Plus the 'costom level maker' has been updated so much, that you can basicly create a level just like the designers.All in all a great game, and a good value for your money.

This game is good fun for all ages and really tests your imagination. The merits along the way challenge you to come up with new adjectives and nouns to get rewards, allowing you to buy new avatar outfits to suit your taste.The only reason Super Scribblenauts didn't achieve 5 stars was because the merit system covers all three profiles so once you achieve something your friend can spend your reward on the avitars they want. There's a pop-up to tell you that you achieved the merit but once you've got it your friend can't achieve it since that aspect is always shared between all three profiles.However,

Bought this for my son as it looked like an interesting game mechanic. Something that looked totally original and unique.This is a fabulous game and has kept my son entertained for hour upon hour, week upon week. The fact that you can type in words, for example, ‘Winged elephant’, and the game will create an elephant with wings is just absolutely amazing. It obviously can’t create everything but, boy, it has a BIG collection of things it can create! You can use these creations to solve the puzzles to get through the levels and your imagination is the only limit.My son loves this game and regularly laughs out loud with joy and amazement at the things this game will let him create.An absolutely

I bought this for my daughter a couple of years ago - at 7, she was pretty good at English and I wanted to further that by entending her vocab with a fun game. She loves this game. She immediately became engrossed in it, trying to work out how to complete the level by thinking up possible items to use. However two years on it is still picked up and played. She doesn't play it non-stop (which I think is a good thing) but it has retained her interest. I know there are kids out there that whizz through games and finish them in a matter of weeks and maybe they could with this, however, for me, the appeal of this game is how she needs to think outside the box and continues to do so several years on.

I bought this game for my 10 year old son who loves his DS, but is not so keen on literacy. It was a bit of a gamble, because in the past if he has considered a game "educational" this has put him off it from the outset.He has not put this game down and absolutely loves it. He needs to use his imagination, problem solve, spell and think of lots of different synonyms for words (eg 8 different words for monster, or 3 different animals with long necks). All of this will help him with his literacy at school, but he doesn't care! He has started to use a thesaurus for the first time and is constantly asking us how to spell sophisticated adjectives.He is happy and so are we!
