And for the first time, learn the backstory about Maxwell's parents, his twin sister Lily, and how he got his magical notepad. Expand

    Scribblenauts Unlimited hones the original open creativity concept, and comes away with a fine-tuned must-have experience.

    While Unlimited's focus may have moved toward usability, it's still a great game. It doesn't bring wild and crazy innovation, but progress the series nonetheless. By streamlining its process, Unlimited gives players even better ways to lose themselves in a playground of their own creation.

    It's still one of the more original gaming experiences out there for those willing to try something a little different.
  4. This is undoubtedly a well thought-out handheld port, but it's still slightly lacking for the changes. One for the kids. [March 2013, p.68]
