As pretty as it all looks on a big screen it’s all sort of lost because you spend nearly all of your time looking at the GamePad. The colours and characters really pop in high definition. You also get improved visuals over what is offered on Nintendo’s hand held. The Wii U version also comes with a create-a-hero feature. If you’re not a comic fan, like me, this is very helpful in getting the best experience out of this game. A smattering of combat mixes things up a bit but this is strictly a one button, button mashing affair.ĭifferentiating itself from the 3DS version, the Wii U game features access to the Bat Computer that acts as a sort of database for the 2000+ DC Universe characters that are included in the game. It is important to note that, while knowledge in this area enhances the experience, the game can be played, finished and enjoyed with little knowledge of the DC Comics universe. The depth of characters will impress even the most loyal DC Universe fan. But as I said, this is great fan service. If you’re looking to try the Scribblenauts experience and don’t need the superhero angle you might want to try and pick Scribblenauts Unmasked up at a discounted price. I didn’t happen to but don’t take that the wrong way, I’m just not a big comic guy. With something like 2000 characters this is fantastic fan service for those who will benefit from it. The main difference here is the integration of the DC Comics universe. Scribblenauts Unmasked doesn’t stray from the game’s original formula. They are solved by inputting either the name of an object or an adjective to create tools or solutions to whatever challenge you face. The puzzles in Scribblenauts are more subtle than what you might find in a game like Professor Layton.
SCRIBBLENAUTS UNMASKED MAC SERIES
Playing as series mainstay Maxwell, the core gameplay mechanic in Scribblenauts games involves you coming up with words that help you solve puzzles that the game throws at you. It would have been really neat to see some sort of text recognition in play here. This game feels like it was made for something like the Wii U’s GamePad. Trivial? Yes, but I feel better having gotten that off my chest. Even with the nice big screen on the Wii U’s GamePad you still have to type words out using the stylus and an on-screen keyboard. Despite the title it sort of bothers me that you never really scribble anything. Let me get something off my chest right away. My concerns about the novelty of the main gameplay device still exist, but the inclusion of the DC Comics universe will certainly attract fans for good reason. It is my second adventure into the Scribblenauts universe. Interactive have released Scribblenauts Unmasked. When it released though the novelty wore off too quickly for my liking. Believe it or not it was the same sort of feeling I remember getting playing Metal Gear Solid 10 years earlier. I remember the first time I saw Scribblenauts.
