Scribblenauts storytime! by Fullofkittens 11/15/2009, 8:52pm PST Problem: You are locked in a prison cell. There are 5 other prison cells: 3 contain dangerous felons, 1 contains prison guards, and one contains a desirable Starite. In the middle of the cells is a machinegun. There are three levers: one in your cell, one in the middle of all the cells, and one in the guards' cell. Solution: Let all the felons out, and then summon a shoggoth, a mythical death blob mentioned in H.P. Lovecraft's The Shadown Over Innsmouth. The shoggoth can kill any living man - though not before driving him MAD WITH FEAR - but it is too big to get into your cell. Success! ... Problem: You are in a long cave. At the end of the cave is a tall chamber, which extends above and below your position. In that chamber, below your position, is a bottomless lava pit. Above your position, a desirable Starite dangles by a thread. Between you and the tall chamber is a tripwire. If you touch the tripwire, the thread will be cut and the Starite will fall into the lava and be destroyed. Solution: Attach one end of a chain to the Starite. Attach the other end of the chain to a robot standing in your cave. Position a magnet at the end of the cave opposite the tall chamber. Trip the wire; the robot and the precious Starite will be sucked to your end of the cave. After years of deriding adventure games for requiring dream logic to solve puzzles, now we are the ones responsible for the dream logic. There was probably a totally practical solution to both of those problems but these solutions were the simplest I could think of. One puzzle I can't figure out: there's a caveman and he wants a dinosaur egg omelet. I can separate the dinosaur from her egg with no problem, but then what? Everything I try to do either causes the caveman to immolate himself or causes the egg to hatch. Is the goal to get the egg to the fire?
