One of the easiest things to forget is that when you spawn something like a shark, if you want to get rid of it all you have to do is drag it back to the garbage can. Which I didn't do either on the first shark I spawned, I spawned a sea mine to get rid of it instead of just deleting it.


Oh yeah, hahah, erm. Once they are on the screen I'm like, welp, my problem now. I hope they do a level where they remove the garbage can. It would be the Scribblenauts equivalent to the level in all FPS games where they remove your guns and ammo.

I am torn between reading about people's experience with the game and not wanting the slightest bit of spoilers. But, for instance, I would have never thought to try "teleporter." I'm okay with realistic items - in order to get the tree down, for instance, the first thing I thought of was lightning (didn't work) then a beaver (did), then an axe (did, and then I killed the woodsman, har har har) but the teleporter and UFO I only know of because of posts. I think I am not going to read any experiences except for the ones posted here at Caltrops.

ALSO! You know how GTA killed Crazy Taxi by making Crazy Taxi a mini-game? Before I went to bed last night I wanted to see if it knew Big Foot (yeah) and then the Loch Ness Monster (as "Nessie," it didn, yeah). They were both on the screen and so they fought each other. I've been working 3+ years on Cryptozookeeper and this fuckin' game turned my work-in-progress into a mini-game!

It's also fun to live-blog:

ICJ: Scribblenauts doesn't know the word lye! What the fuck!
ICJ: The first thing I tried was caltrops. It makes ONE caltrop.
ICJ: Then it says, "FEED THE CHEF"
ICJ: So I'm like, motherfucker can drink lye!

Fortinbras: FEED ME A STRAY CAT
ICJ: ooooo
ICJ: lemme try that one
ICJ: It did!
Fortinbras: Hahahahahahahahhahahaha

ICJ: I don't think it thinks that is food tho
ICJ: Yeah, the chef won't eat it
Fortinbras: Well clearly he's not a Chinaman

ICJ: And now the stray cat is crying
ICJ: To go with the three real ones I have

ICJ: It knows swine flu! I'm gonna give it to the chef.
ICJ: Whoops, I dropped it on the cat


Fortinbras: Apparently it doesn't know the word Obama =(
ICJ: Lemme see

Fortinbras: Obama would feed your chef
Fortinbras: And fix his broken leg
Fortinbras: AND give him 5000$ for his piece of shit GM car

ICJ: It doesn't know the word Muslim either
ICJ: Lemme try terrorist
ICJ: It does know Terrorist

Fortinbras: Does the terrorist kill the chef?
ICJ: He set the -- OMG!
ICJ: I dropped him on the chef's restaurant
ICJ: And I swear to Christ, lit it on fire
ICJ: And it cost me the level!

Shortly afterwards, my DSi ran out of power and I had to go find the power plug, which ironically led to me plugging it in and playing on the couch and away from my PC, tethered. Okay, that's not really irony but if Scribblenauts doesn't know a word then I'm sure as hell not going to bother.


the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!
