Newly Released: Scribblenauts Remix for iOS

Scribblenauts is a game that depends as heavily on your imagination as it does on your vocabulary. Instead of providing you with a puzzle and a few tools to use to solve it, Scribblenauts instead asks you to invent your own tools. This added element makes the game more fun and gives it much greater replay value.




Now, a “remastered” version of the title is available for your iPhone or iPad device. The game boasts levels from both Nintendo DS titles in addition to a few new ones designed exclusively for iOS devices. All of the controls have been translated into touch commands, naturally, but the bulk of the gameplay remains the same – type words, use items, solve puzzles.

You’ll also be able to save your game via the new iOS 5 iCloud functionality, which allows you to save your game at any time on your iPhone or iPad and pick up from right where you left off with another device. So if you run out of time while playing on the subway, for instance, you can resume the same puzzle a few hours later from the comfort of your living room.

Scribblenauts recognizes thousands of words, so the more creative you are with your solutions, the more fun you can have. Here’s a quote on the game from Samantha Ryan, the Senior Vice President of Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment’s Production and Development branch (whew):

“Players can let their imaginations run wild by solving challenges with objects they’ve created such as a ‘colossal, winged, rainbow car’ or a ‘shy, frost-breathing, robotic hippopotamus,’ and easily share the results with their friends.”

Scribblenauts is available as of today and both the iPhone and iPad versions of the game will run you $4.99.
Are you excited to see ports of great games slowly making their way to iOS devices?
