Top Pro

Encourages creativity

In Scribblenauts, the goal is to help other characters perform physics based tasks, and you can solve them in any way you want. You can create any object by typing it out and use them in creative ways to solve the puzzles. See More

Top Con

More inventive solutions often do not work

The limitations of the game can be easily seen when solutions that make sense (though may not be the programmed solution) do not work. For those with really vivid imaginations or who use off the wall thinking they may run up against a wall with this title. See More

Top Pro

Builds vocabulary

You can write in tons of nouns and have them appear in game. You can also add adjectives to the nouns to modify them. By having the words appear and add to the gameplay, it encourages building a larger vocabulary. See More

Top Pro

Not too difficult

The game has an appropriate difficulty level for kids and because puzzles can be solved in different ways, the difficulty in inherently flexible. See More

Golf With Friends

Top Pro

Simple, but fun

The simple controls are easy to pick up, but hard to master. When you're playing with friends, it's a nice competitive environment with ample originality and thought put into the level design. See More

Top Con

Non-ergonomic menu

The main menu isn't very intuitive, but it does look nice. After a bit of hunting you can find what you're looking for, but it could certainly be made easier. See More

Top Pro

Interesting ranges keep players engaged

From rolling logs, rotating parts of the range, and super-speed convener belts, the more difficult ranges have obstacles which would be virtually impossible in real-world minigolf. If you want to go even more interesting, you can change your golf balls out for cones, which will roll unpredictably and turns the difficulty up to 11. See More

Top Con

Hard to view the range before shooting

Some of the ranges have obstacles which are hard to see before shooting - for example jumps over a streams, drops, or other obstacles. You can zoom out and pan around from your starting position, but you can't preview the range from the top. See More

Top Pro

Active developers

This game is still extremely early access, but the devs are regularly updating with bug fixes and additional content. See More
