The Wacky Weaponry of Scribblenauts 

Scribblenauts is the closest thing we have to a Death Note video game.

This game was a HUGE part of my childhood. Long live my Nintendo 3DS.

I believe if you write "starite" in the notebook, the starites you get don't actually have any energy inside of them and won't be able to power the notebook, assuming that's how the notebook is powered in the first place

Not only does Scribblenauts absolutely FUCK (its music especially rocks), it’s a phenomenal example of an educational game done RIGHT. It teaches critical thinking skills and expands the vocabulary of the player as part of its main gameplay loop, in such a way that doesn’t feel shoehorned in or that clashes with the game’s other mechanics. It’s not a textbook that been gameified, it’s just a game that requires you to learn in order to play. It’s probably one of my favorite games of all time.

Maxwell controls every single god from every religion. He controls eldritch horrors. He controls death and life. Maxwell is the most powerful being to exist in any media

I'm genuinely kinda overjoyed to see somebody bringing this franchise into a bit more of a spotlight again, I'd played it so much throughout my childhood Also you're so right, the notebook IS probably the most powerful thing ever, Maxwell by the point of Unlimited has true omnipotence basically Also yeah fuck Maxwell's dad he caused Maxwell to go into situations where he canonically can die and presumably if that happened not only would he let Maxwell die but let Lily freeze into stone

I feel as this man could review doc mcstuffins and talk about how confusing it is and I would still be entertained

So his notebook is like the Death Note but somehow more powerful

The funniest part is you can solve all the game's problems in the worst most terroristic ways possible, get the starites, and their father will STILL act like Maxwell learned his lesson. XD

Maxwell's notebook seems to have a single limitation outside "adult stuff" and copyrighted materials: he can't make starites. My stupid child brain thought it was so smart since I could just make them and complete all the levels. Apparently not, because he can only make FAKE starites. I felt so cheated and decided to take out my anger on those unsuspecting npcs...

Maxwell can defeat every villain known to man just by drawing literally any kind of terroristic weapon.

Not only is Maxwell one of the most powerful characters in fiction, he keeps getting more powerful in each game: -In the first game, he can create and move objects and that's it -In Super, he can now add adjectives to his creations to modify them -In Unlimited, he gains the ability to alter existing people/objects and not just his own creations -In Unmasked, the fourth wall no longer holds him back as the entire DC universe is now his to create If this series had continued, he would probably control over every other franchise in existence and be emperor of the entire multiverse by now.

This game is so damn good Also, considering the steam workshop, maxwell can summon pretty much anything.

I hate that no one ever considers maxwell when they do a "can X powerful character beat Y powerful character" bc maxwell literally controls life and death and all Goku does is just yell really loud for a long time and then hit really hard in the time it could take Maxwell to just write "dead goku"

Scribblenauts has been one of the most influential games in my entire life. I remember that time I got 2 copies of super scribblenauts on my ds and was playing both copies to bits, making custom levels and trying to complete every wacky combination (plus the winged dotted bathtub). Then, a couple years later I bought unlimited and that expanded my limits even more, because I would spend almost entire days trying to make every custom character I could think of. And then scribblenauts unmasked, as quirky as the game was, allowed me to enjoy scribblenauts in the comfort of my 3ds, for more scribble action on the go. I don’t normally comment on RU-vid videos, and this may or may not be buried under a bunch of other posts, but as someone diagnosed with an above average creativity level, Maxwell and his entire series of games have truly left an amazing mark on my life. Thank you so much for making a video about this truly underrated game, and confirming why I stay subscribed to this underrated channel ❤

in regards to bizarre combinations you can create in this game, one time, while playing around with it, i created a "depressed man" and gave him a "gun" leading him IMMEDIATELY kill HIMSELF - so yes you can really do anythin you want in this game. next time i think i'll spawn him a therapist

I don’t think I’ve ever seen drawn to life mentioned in a RU-vid video before, which makes it even better that I also learned it was made by the same people that made scribblenauts .

With this game being a Warner Bros. property, Maxwell needs to be in Multiversus!

Wow, Drawn to Life. What a blast from the past! I forgot how gutwrenching that ending was for 10 year old me

I am so happy this video exists I have beaten Scribblenauts Unlimited like 4 times and still mess around with it postgame to this day, and I’ve also played Remix and Unmasked It’s so awesome and incredibly underrated

My favorite object, and probably what I have used the most, is an indestructible immovable plank. Next to that is a fast flying tank.

Universe gone *snap* Universe back is a majority of DC crossovers. I’m glad you’re covering this. I remember there was a time when I couldn’t finish a level so I just spawned a cage and put the starite in the cage and then dragged the cage to me. Also remember that one level where the hint was just a developer rambling about why a cup of Joe means a cup of coffee

in Unlimited most puzzles where you need to get past a character without harming them can be solved using the word "alprazolam", which is the generic name for Xanax

Finally, a RU-vidr I know talks about a big piece of my childhood. Even though the graphics were grainy they got better and so did the game. I do have some friends of my relatives that may have played a part in developing the game, or are just super fans of it. Never really tried to ask because I was younger back then. Good game, I wish to see this attract more people to it again!

With my original DS my first 4 games that I ever owned were: Nsmb, Sonic Rush, Starfy, and Scribblenauts. Probably some of my favorite games that still hold up well to this day. Thanks for this video :)

the only reasons Maxwell was never added to smash is because its impossible to nerf a character who can counter that nerf

Thank about how easily Maxwell could beat any character just by writing dead ____ or atomic bomb.

I remember making a Super,ultra,speedy,powerful,awesome,one shot,laser,tiny,freezing,fire breathing machine gun in unlimited and it was insane 😂

MAXWELL: *writes "dead dante dmc" Dante DMC: ima be honest *royal guard

You should do a video on the lore of Poptropica

The lore in these videos is soo good

i love scribblenauts!!!!!!!! I still have super scribblenauts (i used to have drawn to life as well but idk what happened to it). Fun fact, super scribblenauts was the main way I learned how to spell! Whenever I wanted to spawn something in, i would ask a family member how to spell it and eventually I just memorized a bunch of words

Kirby travels to the JoJo world and uses pale snake to give themself the stand bohemian rhapsody, then uses Bohemian rhapsody to summon Ben10 and the most powerful thanos, takes ben's omnitrix to turn into alien X so he can take the funny hand-sock from that one thanos that ate the one above all others and then eats maxwell's book, boom, most powerful character ever

This guys gonna eventually cover that one mickey mouse video game where he can erase and create matter with a paintbrush

Damn came here for "hehe Maxwell can beat Goku" and was hit with "remember depression the ending?" In under a min.

actually he can't make more starite because when you write starite into the book you just get a fake starite. Because otherwise you wouldn't have to do the puzzles you could just write starite in at the start of every level. Y'know. Game design. Good video!

Fun fact: the youtube channel mega64 has an easter egg in super scribblenauts. It just summons a sign of the channel name if you type in mega sixty-four

i remember the scribblenauts series well and i have fond memories of it. I think it was scribblenauts remix that i had on my amazon fire tablet as a kid

One of those things that sets your imagination wild. I cherish this kind of media

All the fun of a sandbox game, none of the morally gray areas, and responsibility for your actions! It's paradise

THIS is the content I subscribed for!

YAYAYAYEYAYEYA I FUCKIN LOVE SCRIBBLENAUTS the franchise is so slept on and i'm so excited that someone even mentions it.

1 of my best memories of Unlimited was tricking the vampire in the restaurant. I served him ‘garlic juice’. The game counted it as a success, even though it got him angry and then ended him.

Lol breaking the noodles at the end XD Such a fun watch, I really love that game. Never thought of how ridiculously overpowered dude is tho.

i would pay all of my real actual money for a choopo video on drawn to life

can't believe this guy has a literal upgraded version of the Death Note

Scribblenauts is GOAT, I loved that game as a kid.

You forgot the part where he can only invent so many things before the "things bar" fills up

Love these videos so much. I'm happy that I'm not the only one who thinks of how wacky some games are lmao

this video shows me that the best thing to wish for if you have a genie is just to wish for the book from scribblenauts but without limits

this was randomly in my recommended and i have to say that i absolutely LOVED playing this game when i was younger

Another weakness of him is presumably if a wizard or something could turn him illiterate, since then he can't write or understand the words he need to make the book work. Though it depend wether the book is literal or basically just the intention of wanting something specific is enough and since "Everything" worked, I guess it technically is doing just that

"And now, I'm Italy's most wanted. Again."

4:31 I knew about the Anti-Monitor because he was responsible for one of the Crises

What if the book is limited by Maxs understanding of reality? Would explain a lot

Scribblenauts filled my 10 years old me of so much megalomania that is the reason why I like developing video games. I want to be god of my own worlds. I decide what is good and what not. And I'm Italian as well, so beware.

Scribblenauts is the thing that put the Domino effect in motion that led me to pass (with flying colours) an English exam in a quarter of the time allotted due to an unfortunate case of diarrhea that was so intense it caused me constant cold sweats. The rest of the exam time was spent as gou'd expect. Great game series, would recommend!

Dude just write "dead Italians" in your notebook smh

i still can't believe you had 4000 subs when i started watching you truly an amazing job choopo well done

I love how Italy is the bad guy in his stories

Wish my games didn’t get stolen. This was my first 100% game, did the same with super! I had around 900k ollies on the first game, sad that progress is gone now

bro you brought back so many memories i forgot

I remember getting the original at the shops and cracking it open on the train, it was magical.

i just get so excited when you upload :)

dont let this stop you from making a video on max, from max and ruby still

As a DC fan I spent so much time playing Unmasked on my 2DS

I love Scribblenauts so so much for its goofiness

Where was maxwell during the Iranian missile crisis?🤨

Drawn to Life!! Nostalgia! Good video btw

I had to do so many chores to buy scribblenauts mobile on my kindle tablet 🤣🤣

scribblenauts was the first ds game i played, i was like 5 or 6 when i first got it lol

im so happy you made a video about this game :)

Yea, I accidentally called Ramen “Pasta” in front of an Italian, needless to say I’m being executed in a week

I had the second game.... this brings me so many memories

You can fr just add an adjective to anything and just make it gone so he can defeat anything

Next time we will find choopo trying to break out of the Italians’ prison!

Okay but I totally forgot how sick buzz monkey jungle party 2 was

I used to play this game so much on my Wii U. Wish my gamepad still worked so I can play it again..

*"Zeno from DBS is the one The most Powerful beings in Multiverse"* Maxwell: (rewrites "Zeno" condition to "Dead") (Zeno suddenly drops on the ground and lie dead (for sure its canon death)) Grand Minister: *WTF?!?* Maxwell: guys i killed zeno. Grand Minister: you... Maxwell: (rewrites "Grand Minister" condition to "Frog" and "Powerless") (Actually Grand Minister turned into frog and completely powerless, in blink of an eye)

Scribblenauts Unlimited was the best and I'll just put "dead" on the people that are just annoying me and or I just hate. Good times man, good times.. definitely didn't give me bloodlust in my future years

As a kid I loved the problem solving in this game so much! But I also committed a bunch of war crimes...

Loved this game! I played it barely knowing English lol it made it so challenging

I just noticed Maxwell is like the Human Strawberry Crepe:Both him and Strawberry Crepe Cookie Harm People just because the wanted to Play Maxwell has a Similar Hairstyle as the Lamb(Cult of the Lamb)

I have scribblenaut unlimited on steam and i love it 😭😭😭

Scribblenauts and the sequel are games I always got from Family Video for getting good grades. Never actually owned them :( but they were always fun as hell

This game is so nostalgic!

i spent all my life thinking that drawn to life was made by different guys, that gane was ny childhood running at 20 fps on an emulator

The Italians being just....actual italy made me laugh way to hard

I didn't know there was more than two games, and I only played the first, but I loved it.

4:29 bro is a whole A list villain

One of my favorite games on my DS i hoping that one day they'll make another one

As an Italian, choopo will no longer be with us.

I need a new scribblenauts with some sort of Chatgpt/midjourney like rn. shit would go hard

0:20 *Scribblenuts!*

This makes me want to grab out my Nintendo DS and play the game again. Also good luck again the Italians

I literally gasped when I heard the noodles snap

I watch your videos to sleep thank you for these

one of my fav games

unrelated but I learned about Cthulhu for the first time because of this game

You've inadvertently sold me on a Scribblenauts live action movie
