Scribblenauts Showdown Reviews
Put together with the charming art style and music that will be familiar to anyone who has played previous Scribblenauts titles, Showdown is a delightful little game to pass the time with a few friends on a rainy afternoon.
As far as party games go, however, Scribblenauts Showdown might just be one of my new favourites. It's certainly going to be the new go-to videogame whenever friends come over. And I've been honing my skills, so they better watch out.
In the world of Scribblenauts the word is mightier than the sword!
As a huge fan of Scribblenauts, I'm happy to be able to enjoy more word-based mayhem even though the party formula becomes repetitive quite fast due to a limited variety of mini-games.
Scribblenauts Showdown is a good solid party game, perfect for having a couple of fun hours. But it become repetitive very soon.

Scribblenauts Showdown is a fun game you can pick and and play at any time, but you may feel the novelty wear off without friends to play with.

Scribblenauts Showdown is not what you expect from the franchise, but it's a decent alternative to interactive party game. But with a lack of content in terms of mini-games, you might not stick too long.
Scribblenauts Showdown is an ideal game to play with friends or with family. In addition, it’s perfect for the youngest of the house, as it encourages the use of imagination and creativity to overcome some challenges, although these are somewhat rare. This causes it to end up looking somewhat repetitive and somewhat heavy after dedicating a few parts.

Your enjoyment of Scribblenauts Showdown will probably depend on where you're coming from. Long-time fans of the franchise will likely be disappointed by a watered-down entry that doesn't come close to capturing the creative spirit of the original games. In fact, it doesn't even bother. On the other hand, newcomers with no expectations should appreciate Showdown as a colourful, cute, low-effort party game that's more diverse than most.
A simple and funny killtime... for a match or two.

Scribblenauts Showdown is predictably, a cute little multiplayer title, but sadly not a very good singleplayer one.
One of the most creative game series is back, but maybe it's not what fans expected. Although it has some fun and interesting game elements, there's not much to do after a few hours with the game. The party style mini games are repetitive and some times the creation tool feels like a waste. Give it a try if you're looking for a different game for your parties.

Scribblenauts Showdown gives the feeling of being half complete. It seeks traditional gameplay with its minigames, but the change is not enough and, even though it is fun, delivers two halved experiences. The worst game of the saga.

A good idea that falls short on posibilities and becomes boring too soon.

Scribblenauts Showdown is an agreeable party game that applies the playful vocabulary-stretching gameplay well enough to entertain you and some friends for a while. Unfortunately, the numerous minigames are all pretty shallow, the Showdown mode can grow tiresome, and the appeal of the Sandbox levels only lasts for so long. This will certainly make for an amusing evening with family and friends, but it's not likely to be a title you'll come back to more than a couple of times.
Scribblenauts Showdown recognizes over 30.000 words, but it turned out to be just a series of minigames. That's not what we expected from this IP.
