5th Cell Says Thanks: Scribblenauts' Legendary Post #217 in Picture Form

June 12, 2009 in Photos comments 11

If you've been tracking the hype levels of the once-relatively unknown title from 5th Cell, makers of Drawn to Life and Lock's Quest, then you know what Post #217 is. This post from the NeoGAF Scribblenauts Preview/Impressions Thread was one of the catalysts of the little game that could's, Scribblenauts, rise to popularity, right alongside the God vs. Kraken video.

Scribblenauts has gone on to win IGN's Overall Game of Show, Gamespy's Overall Game of Show, and Gametrailers' DS Game of Show, triumphing over heavy favorites Alan Wake, Modern Warfare 2, Mass Effect 2, Uncharted 2, and The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks (GameTrailers DS). Also account for the numerous other accolades Scribblenauts had received from websites in their post-E3 awards, and you know you have something special.

To commemorate and thank the community, 5th Cell's Jeremiah Slaczka presented NeoGAF with 5th Cell artist Edison Yan's rendition of Post #217, with Scribblenauts hero Maxwell riding a dinosaur out of a time machine to kill robot zombies. This can be seen on the right.

Scribblenauts is set to release this Fall.

      That's not the point of the game at all.

        Okay?

        From what I've seen, you're supposed to solve puzzles/complete levels by basically popping in whatever you can think of.

        Its not appealing to me. I have a feeling it would get repetitive and simply just be the same thing with different skins.

          Everything in the game will have the same properties as it does in real life.

          It's a game that tests your imagination.

    Still not really buying the hype.

    It just doesn't look like it will be my cup of tea.

    Akira must like it to have an avatar of it. It looks like a clone of Drawn to life In my opinion.
    Edit- Oh it's made by the people that made Drawn To life. Lol.
