I am having a blast with this game so far...but that bloody 1-11 level. I have completed it 3 seperate times and NOT got the starite because of dodgey technical stuff...
I have probably never laughed so much at a game... me and my brother absconded quite a dangerous T-Rex situation...atop a cow :lol

Oh no. It was BAD. At least the original 3 were SOMEWHAT plausible and were SOMEWHAT based in reality on this planet... But I digress... too bad you can't actually go inside a refrigerator in Scribblenauts... that would be an awesome test of the Nuke.

We should start a "recreate your favorite movie scenes" with Scribblenauts thing.
I have a couple of ideas, I wonder if my digital camera would work alright off the ds.

Holy crap again! Level 9-7! The awesome references continue!
Also, how could anyone beat
three times? The only way I can figure to
don't hurt the little sister, haha!
Also, how could anyone beat
9-11
get under the overhang is by using a shrink ray. How else could you get through there?
Hi NeoGAF!
I have a brief pictorial story for you, in not-necessarily-chronological order, since I finally have everything required for it.

The crampons unfortunately don't seem to work with boots or Maxwell, but at least they're there!

Just beat the last two levels. Both. were. epic!
Haha, I just played a level with an Indiana Jones reference. Too bad I haven't seen that movie, since I probably missed a solution.
Does anyone know if you can use a fire extinguisher to put out fires though? I found a campfire under a low roof, but:
Does anyone know if you can use a fire extinguisher to put out fires though? I found a campfire under a low roof, but:
Fire extinguisher, watering can, and hose seemed to have no effect, and Maxwell just ran up and killed himself. I put it out by giving a fireman the hose (and even then I had to PUT the fireman in the right place so the hose accidentally would put the fire out). Or is this just a case where the low roof prevents normal fire-extinguishing items from working?

Bring the Starite to you. You can burn the rope for instance. This will also set the starite on fire, but you can just use ice or water to put that out. Also, how did you get Maxwell to the starite? I could never get past that damned fan.

Could always just use the regular wedding items. Bouquet -> bride and wedding cake does it pretty easy.

Story of the Thread! Also, did you buy another DS during this saga too!?
Makes me want to shell out for a third copy. Somebody tell me Scribblenauts sales numbers already!
Affeinvasion, I like your "recreate movie scenes" idea. We'll have to talk about that
And Technomancer! Dude! Unless I'm wrong, you're the first in this thread to complete every level in the game. I bow to your win.

Heh, my solution was so convoluted.Torhthelm Tídwald said:
Stick a bomb on the red soil. Stick a ramp on the ledge above it, drop a fire so it slides off and ignites the bomb. Than put an air vent on the ramp so it's shooting diagonally. Grab the fire again and let it shoot up and ignite the rope. Once that drops and get's blown over to the wood wall, igniting it, use a rain cloud to put out the Starite if on fire. Than make a fan, and keep using it to blow the Starite about halfway under the overhang. Tie a rope or something to the starite and pull it the rest of the way; voila.

lol I dont own the game.. but is there any truth to this? :lol
No, but I did something similar..
there was a level with a bunch of dino eggs being guarded by dinos. And the hint said something like "Make Dino Omeletes" After trying numerous times and failing to cook the eggs. I just typed in omelete and i beat the level. lol.
I had kind of wanted a DSi for the better screen. The lower battery life is kinda eh, since I play with like level 4 screen brightness, but I haven't regretted it so far. The d-pad and L/R buttons are good.
I also approve of the "create movie scenes" idea!
Yeah, I think that in one level I found a "large fire vent" and I could just click on it with a watering can to put the fire out. But I can't figure out how to do that with a campfire. Can anyone verify? Or is it just if the campfire is under a low overhang that Maxwell kills himself?BorkBork said:

When I typed in the star, I just got a replica of it that I could pick up. Couldn't beat the level that way. :lol But yeah, I did that on that level to.
I couldn't figure out how to move the egg. And then the pterodactyl up high was a whole other story.
And just curious, why would you buy more than one copy of the game? Are you giving them to someone or did you really buy more than one copy to support Fifth Cell? I'm assuming it's to give someone but I could be wrong. I just can't see why. You could have spent that extra $60 on something else, like other Fifth Cell games or other games. :lol
It was partly to support 5th Cell and encourage developers who interact with their community (hopefully Jackson sees our controls feedback here and considers that in future games), and to offset one or two people who might pirate it. And of course, once he confirmed it I had to confirm the other preorder. I don't buy too many new games so I could afford it. And yeah, one copy is going to a friend on the west coast, and another copy was intended for a friend who got it early on a flash cart (but who actually bought it for her nephew as well). I might give it to a different friend in Canada instead assuming there's no problem with just mailing video games across the border.VGChampion said:

Alright, just about gold star'd all of World 6. World 7 so far as been a lot of fun. Gotta say my least favorite world so far is easily 5, and I'm thinking that's where I was losing my steam. Every level seemed to be "alright, kill these underwater dudes then do something underwater"
Also, for 7-1p...

four cowbells work
The ending is really nice. Completed all the levels. Gold worlds 1-6.

Jackson:
Can every character in the credits can be spawn? If so how can I spawn the guy in all black with the fire helmet? I've spawned most of the 5th Cell team. Thanks again for the game. It think it deserves a starite of approval.
EDIT: Never mind I found it.
EDIT: Never mind I found it.
Were you the one goldstarring every world as you go? I almost feel like it would be best to only gold star the really fun levels as you go, and then come back later, mainly since you get more ideas later on and you learn useful level components (like "giant vent" or whatever) that you might use in your own solutions. Otherwise, once you finish all worlds, you won't be able to look forward to gold-starring your favorite worlds.SirPenguin said:
No, that's me doing that.
I see where you're coming from, but I don't really mind- I actually wouldn't have cared if they didn't include a formal "advanced mode." I like replaying my favorite levels to try new solutions lots more than 3 times
EDIT to premptively apologize if I'm wrong and Penguin's doing this as well.

So I just discovered how easy it is to reuse items in advance mode that you already used on previous attempts.
I sincerely hope I can resist the temptation to exploit the hell out of that...
Just put an adjective in front of the word. I.e. if you used "tent" and want to cheat and use it again, put something like "red tent."

You could also type "gfeihfuwehfdnwuhnf tent" and it'd work. But you're really only hurting yourself if you cheat in this game, so yeah.
Anyways, yeah, I am doing that Blizzard, but I feel it's the best way to play for me. I like having a level fresh on my mind when I go to replay it, and honestly, really none of the levels are THAT good to want to replay after gold starring anyways.
World 7, though, is full of a lot of REALLY cool levels. I'm having a ton of fun in this world.

Ok, I'm finally stumped to the point where I'm requesting the help of GAF.
I've tried this level a couple dozen times and refuse to move ahead until it's beaten.
Level 7-4 "Pin Him Down with an Object"
I've tried shrinking him, tying his ass to a boulder, glueing him to a grand piano, dropping big shit on his head. glueing a bunch of bridges together to pin him under those, nothing works.
Suggestions?

I made my band with
a cowbell, spoon, gutbucket, washboard
The other variations weren't quite as fun.
Level 4-9p or 4-10p (I forget which) stumped me for a while. I learned that
That was also the first time I've had a freeze happen while playing ingame, without actually kinda trying to produce one. I "shot" something with a cupid's arrow, spawned another cupid's arrow, and tried to drop off my pterodactyl while the arrow was still hovering unplaced in the air. I don't know if that combination was bad or if it was random, but it froze and I had to restart the game.
witches have super-fast autofire, and either can't be tamed, or still shoot you or other enemies while tamed. I found that Maxwell apparently can't be turned into a frog. I finally discovered that a wall and a suspension bridge could trap the witch quite well, but I still used four objects to win. All other attempts to lure the princess failed (she likes jewelry and stuff but won't follow me if I carry them, and she'll ride a unicorn, but the unicorn gets scared by the witch and messes everything up. I finally resorted to the eternal solution of tying the princess to a helicopter and flying to the right. Stupid witch.
