Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment Announces Scribblenauts Sequel

The title will be available Fall 2010

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment officially announced Scribblenauts will have a sequel released in Fall 2010 today. The announcement follows rumors and recent magazine leaks about the game. The sequel is being developed by 5th Cell, the original game's developers, and adds adjectives into the game's mix, allowing players to use them to modify whatever nouns might be summoned.

Press Release


BURBANK, Calif. – March 8, 2010 – Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announces plans to create the next Scribblenauts for Nintendo DS, a follow-up to the revolutionary hit videogame where players use their imagination to write any word bring that object to life and use it to solve puzzles. Available in fall 2010, the follow-up game expands the innovative elements from the acclaimed first title with many inventive new features, including an adjectives system that allows players to push the limits of their imagination to create their own experience.

In this new game created and developed by 5TH Cell, players use the stylus and touch screen to help Maxwell, the game’s hero, acquire the “Starite,” the prize earned from solving the puzzle in even more robust challenges and redesigned levels. Players now have the ability to write any object that comes to mind and modify it in any way they desire using adjectives to reach the goal in each level. Adjectives can change the color, size, elements, behaviors and many other aspects of the object they are describing. Multiple adjectives can be combined together to produce incredibly creative objects, allowing the player’s imagination to run wild for a truly unique and individualistic experience.

“The Scribblenauts sequel gives all players an enhanced game experience they will love and new challenges where they can use their imaginations even more,” said Samantha Ryan, Senior Vice President, Development and Production, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “5TH Cell is a very talented and creative developer and we are excited to add to the Scribblenauts franchise with this new game.”

“The next Scribblenauts broadens the players’ experience from the first Scribblenauts through more creativity, innovation and in-depth gameplay,” said Jeremiah Slaczka, Creative Director and Co-Founder of 5TH Cell. “All of these enhancements give players even greater control over how they want to play the game.”

The new Scribblenauts game will offer more words, more creativity and limitless possibilities for gamers of all ages.

Too bad they aren't including verbs. That way maybe I could write "Fuck this game" and the cartridge would blow itself up.

While I'm certain 5th Cell will address the more shallow complaints about the game, like the broken controls and confusing hint system, if you've read a page or two of my Scribblenauts rant I published a few weeks ago, you'll see I think the flaws with the game run quite a bit deeper than anything 5th Cell will implement. I'm not sure how saying "Tiny Elephant" or "Fearless Elephant" really will make an elephant act any more like an elephant does, and less like a generic mount.
