Scribblenauts is fun, innovative, and smart. Unfourtunately, it's loaded with control issues to big to ignore.

A game like Scribblenauts doesn't come around every day. You usually won't find a game where you can use a flamethrower to burn a zombie mom on a pterodactyl while holding a diamond. What I just said probably made no sense, but that's exactly what makes Scribblenauts so fun and innovative.

Write anything. Solve anything. That's the catch phrase for Scribblenauts, and it doesn't lie. you can seriously do whatever you want in this game. And that's great fun- to a point.

While it's innovative and addicting and fun and delightfully werid, Scribblenauts is plauged with serious control problems. Maxwell handels horribly, and the touch screen control scheme is put together lousy. Objects can act the way you don't want them to sometimes, and many will find the graphical design strange, though it doesn't look ugly.

Still, Scribblenauts will defientely amaze and suprise you, and its solid level creator is as fun as anything.

All in all, Scribblnauts is innovative enough to please you for hours of play, but the controls will seriously annoy you. However, there's no denying this is a huge step forward for puzzle games.

Pros- Much better than you average puzzle game, giant dictionary, very innovative, a step forward for its genre

Cons- Heinous controls, strange graphical design, objects can sometimes act wrong
