Scribblenauts/Fridge

Fridge Brilliance

• I just realized why the MacGuffin from Scribblenauts is called "Starite". Star + Write (what you do all the time in this game).
  • I at one point wonder why Maxwell's Evil Twin, nicknamed Lexwam by TV Tropes and maybe another website, always steals from other people, but then I came to a conclusion, he was created by Maxwell, but Lexwam doesn't have a Notebook, therefore, he steals stuff because, well, he can't create anything, so he takes whatever's been created so that he can feel the pleasure of having something his Good Twin does!
  • The sequel's title. You know how the main draw is adjectives that enhance objects? Why else would it be called Super Scribblenauts?
• The "Rickroll" item is a man that dances around a bit before disappearing in a puff of smoke. I wasn't really sure why, but then it hit me: they might be referencing the fact that it's generally seen as an "old" meme, it's not as effective as it once was as most Genre Savvy internet users expects it by now, and that many people would just like to see it go away.
• The sequel's title. You know how the main draw is adjectives that will enhance objects? Why else would it be Super Scribblenauts?

Fridge Horror

• The ending of the sequel. The Starites are destroyed, Jeremiah Slazcka, a baby, a deer and Barack Obama all die and Maxwell is stuck on the moon. The time machine shows that the future is apocalyptic and people have already left for Mars. Hopefully a third game will clear things up.
  • Actually, Maxwell isn't stuck on the moon. Sometime in the near future he uses a time machine to get off it. Other than transporting you back to the first level of the original game, it occasionally also transports you to the final level of this game. Here you can see Maxwell quickly walk into a time machine and disappear
  • Wait... how the hell did they manage to give Scribblenauts, a game with no remarkable plot, a Downer Ending? ...as depressing as that is, it's kind of impressive.
  • Only one Starite is destroyed, and the final puzzle is to summon up a replacement.

Fridge Logic

• You can run into this when comparing different summonable objects on nearly any sort of scale. Like how ants are larger than grenades (either those are the tiniest grenades ever, or huge fricking ants).
  • Some objects don't do things or interact the way you would expect.
