Rumor: Scribblenauts has 22,802 words in it

scribblenauts

Some how, someone got a hold of the supposed complete dictionary from 5th Cell’s Scribblenauts.

Whether or not the list is true or not is irreleant. It’s a spoiler. And that is no fun.

Still, telling how many words may or may not be in the game is not a spoiler. It’s just information.

While we have not looked through the list ourselves, we’re wondering if antidisestablishmentarianism is listed.

Guess we’ll find out when it’s released on DS September 15 and October 9 in the US and UK, respectively.

scribblenauts

Warner Bros has confirmed that Scribblenauts will not be released in the UK until October 9.

The US still gets it on September 15.

Originally, the game was set to release in the UK September 25.

You may or may not have already known this, but we are nothing but informative around here.

5th Cell – Scribblenauts would “definitely work on other platforms”

scribblenautslogo

Starlet developer 5th Cell has never thought of puzzler Scribblenauts as a DS exclusive, technical director Marius Fahlbusch has told VG247, and has confessed that the puzzler could migrate between platforms.

“The concept would definitely work on other platforms as well and we’ve seen gamers from very different backgrounds pick it up and enjoy it equally,” said Fahlbusch.

He added: “We’ve seen both kinds of gamers instantly taking to the game, the casual gamer that played a few games before as well as hardcore ones that play nothing but the latest titles on PS3 and X360.

“But we never limited ourselves to the DS as platform in our heads and we’ll see what the future holds.”

Scribblenauts, a puzzle game in which gamers type in the names of objects to make them appear for play, was the shock story of E3 this year, taking away the official Best Original Game award.

Get our full chat with Marius after the break. Scribblenauts is out later this year.

Scribblenauts includes “vomit” and “cabbage”

scribblenauts

According to this ESRB listing for Warner’s Scribblenauts, you can type in “vomit” and a “grey lump” appears on the DS screen. Classy.

If you missed the hullabaloo surrounding DS’s Scribblenauts at E3, the listing explains the premise clearly:

This is a puzzle game in which players navigate a series of traps, puzzles, and enemies to collect stars scattered throughout the colorful levels. Players have the ability to summon different objects by writing/typing in the word (e.g., bike, spaceship, lion) and watching it come to life. If multiple words are entered in a sequence, different whimsical scenarios can be triggered: a bicycle can be used to jump over a baby; a bulldozer can clear away a shark; and cabbage can be fed to dinosaurs.

You’re going to be seeing a lot more on this in the very near future. It’s out later this year.
