Scribblenauts, what have you discovered?

 

So I just got back with my copy of Scribblenauts tonight (Along with Mario & Luigi 3) and I must say my first 10 minutes with the game basically boiled down to me getting frustrated with the controls (which I am still frustrated with to some extant) but once I was able to put in the words "Keyboard Cat" and have a cat come floating into the game world playing a keyboard (yes, you read that right) I knew I was hooked!

For those of you who do not know about Scribblenauts, it is a brand new and totally original game released exclusively on the Nintendo DS. The premise is simple, write anything you want (with some exceptions obviously) and see that object brought to life within the game. You use these objects to solve puzzles throughout the game world and solve puzzles. Need to cut down a tree to solve the puzzle? Typing in anything like "Saw", "Chainsaw", "Beaver", heck maybe even something like "Termite" would cut the tree down and complete the puzzle. Things start getting more complicated than that of course, and that's where things get fun.

So far my initial impressions are pretty good. The game has a very original premise going for it but is marred by some really weird and clunky controls which will defiantly take some time getting used to (all movement is done with the touch screen, camera controlled by the D-pad or Face buttons).

My question to you all who have played the game is, what are your favorite in game objects that you have uncovered that you never imagined would ever be in the game? Share them in a comment below!

I wanted to get this game with the DS, but I never did... :(
