SCRIBBLENAUTS UNLIMITED

After a detour to the persistent mixed with GST Hybrid, the U.S. studio 5th Cell returns to its flagship license: Scribblenauts. Available from mid-November in North America, Scribblenauts Unlimited could allow the series to introduce the latest console from Nintendo thanks to a unique multiplayer mode. Remains to be seen if the previous episodes of recurring defects have been corrected or not during the transition to the Wii U.

Until now confined to markets consoles and mobile phones, there Scribblenauts sign first appeared in our living rooms. The recipe is not turned upside down, however, and the player must solve puzzles always more or less wacky using his imagination. For this word is written in the book of magic little Maxwell book that can give life to all conceivable objects - insults, names, terms and bloody sexual characters apart. For the record, this rascal, out and about with her sister Lily, found fun to give a wormy apple to a homeless hungry. Revenge, the old man a curse transforming sis hero stone which, admittedly, is really not very nice. So, Maxwell has made up his mind to do good and get all the fragments Starite lying in order to help his little sister. The friendly atmosphere is a pretext for frolicking in open environments and lend a hand to people who met once their problems solved, will not fail to leave any chips Starite.


IT'S OVER 9000 WORDS!

Specifically, it shows a "sunshine" to remove the presence of clouds sad poor lady, we created a "balloon" for an elderly person can get a closer look a bird or even a "Dancing Bear" to entertain a passerby. A priori, the range of possibilities is endless with more than 30000 words are recognized, three times more than in Scribblenauts Remix. Indeed, and this is the main strength as 5th Cell, the puzzles have many ways to be resolved, which often leads to funny situations. For example, why use a ladder to get a kitten stuck in a tree while a good shot will scare him and bring him back pronto on land? The humor that comes more from the context that the dialogue remains significant and colorful coating of title does not leave indifferent lovers of beautiful 2D former, especially since the move to high definition rendering magnifies 'cartoon'. But to enjoy the HD display, it is still necessary that the TV is on ...

In Fact, the game shows so enjoyable GamePad in one hand and pen in the other one looks very rarely flat screen and a roof for the firm Kyoto has just spend in the era of high definition. Refractory to touch guests may use the directional pad and buttons in front for all actions: write, jump, interact with NPCs etc.. But honestly, in solo mode you prefer switch to low resolution and only move to the left mablette feel to practice a portable game in his living room. Moreover, if one thinks moult ways to solve a puzzle, it will repeatedly go in a particular direction: the developers. Generally simpler than its predecessors, the title of 5th Cell limits some players' imaginations. Thus, it has tried to entertain the character mentioned above with a drum solo, but nothing worked. As for the vampire wanting to drink something original, it had to rely on an ordinary glass of syrup for a mojito seemed to slip out of the question. In summary, we have more words available but not necessarily more potentially feasible crazy ideas.


THE MYSTERY, THE JULIEN DRILLED

Yet it clearly feels the desire of developers to enrich the original recipe including among others a multiplayer mode, a first for the saga. Fun on paper, it is more anecdotal than really interesting in practice. Usable up to four players, including three in the Wiimote, the title allows friends to control objects and characters created in advance with the GamePad - provided, as usual, to have the required equipment. This is also the only time the TV screen may be lit as it brings some comfort gaming giving the opportunity for everyone to interact and offer ideas of words. In short, where Super Scribblenauts added more adjectives, Scribblenauts Unlimited him above all allows to modify existing objects and people at will by altering the shape, size, color ... Better, as it evoked just before pure creation is now possible, you improbable mixture of animals, objects to the wildest attributes: fire resistance, reaction to electricity ... The budding creators can also share their findings with the community and recover by then even those of the other players if they wish. But behind this apparent inclination to do things, we can only curse to the general public approach to the game

Indeed, some goals are squarely against the establishment as just pick an object trailing a few steps, to bring the character concerned and voila. That being said, Scribblenauts is not stingy with content not less than 500 chips Starite collecting the many missions easily occupying about eight hours of association. Mention about the presence of a nice world map which displays all zones (haunted house, city, desert, castle ...) and the number of Starites required to gain access. Starites that, from time to time, are recovered through various mini-games: shoot targets, find the right ingredients to prepare dishes, prepare a man for a tryst etc.. In addition, many people encountered are actually forty (!) Maxwell brothers who once made their goals, allow the player to change your avatar. The change simply shows visual order and does not affect the gameplay. Moreover, as with the previous episodes, the game is a bit like Little Big Planet: it relies less on the presence of a real gameplay on the atmosphere and the creative aspect. An atmosphere that just will not be to everyone's taste including the noise level, the soundtrack is extremely repetitive. French remains a suitable location and during the cutscenes, dubbing into the language of Marion Cotillard quite correct.
