For the series' third entry, Scribblenauts Unlimited, developer 5th Cell has given the entire concept a fairly radical overhaul, building on the refinements of Super Scribblenauts. They've thrown out the discrete puzzle-by-puzzle structure of the previous games in favor of a massive, interconnected world in which each locale contains multiple problems to resolve. The game benefits greatly from the move away from handhelds, although you can play (solo) on the Wii U GamePad. This is an ideal setup, really: You benefit from the power of console-level hardware (which means huge levels and no evident limit on the number of objects you can have on-screen at once) while still enjoying the handheld experience.

Scribblenauts has long been a series lauded for its wealth of adjectives and nouns. Sometimes, it's astounding to discover exactly how far this can go, and that's why we have gone to the trouble of scouring for the most obscure and curious words that somehow yield results.
Having recently found out about Scribblenauts, the fate of 5th Cell is hard to witness.
the problem of scribblenauts is that it just couldn't work on Playstation/Xbox... Nintendo, PC and Mobile was not enough to support the franchise
Why wouldn't it? Think it would work great with the PlayStation second screen app. Doesn't Xbox have something similar too? Use the phone or tablet to type and the controller to play.
I'm not real sure a 2nd screen is even necessary. I've only played the DC Comics one, but they could have easily mapped all of the buttons from the touch screen to a controller to pull up the menus.....
looks like such a good game.
i have high hopes for this one. preordered it so i could get the cool hat and it sits next to my hori screen protector waiting for sunday.
Played it at PAX Prime on the Wii U.....sooooooooooooooooooooooo ooo good!!!!
