Scribblenauts Showdown
Best Switch Co-op Games of Q1 2018
Scribblenauts is well-known for its unique ability to bring to life nearly any word that you can think of, and now you can use that mechanic both to work with or compete against friends in Scribblenauts Showdown.
There are three main game modes in Scribblenauts Showdown. The first two, Verses and Showdown, are competitive in nature, while the third, Sandbox, is more cooperative. Versus mode features minigames where players will compete against one another, making use of whatever objects they have decided to bring forth. Showdown mode features up to four players racing to reach the end of a game board by tackling minigames in a somewhat Mario Party-like fashion.
In Sandbox mode, players are given several environments to play around in. The players can create mayhem, or work towards overcoming challenges and achieving certain goals. This game mode is a bit closer to the other games in the series, and while it doesn’t bring much of anything new to the table, it is still enjoyable nonetheless.
Scribblenauts Showdown can be played as single-player, or against a CPU in competitive modes. However, the game was designed for playing with friends, and the game’s true potential is hard to unlock without other players.
