Homicidal houses: Super Scribblenauts' ESRB summary photo

It's been a while since we got a good laugh from those ever-delightful ESRB rating summaries. What better game to get back into it than Super Scribblenauts? Enjoy this edited-for-space version in all of its "corpse-eating bike" glory:

"By adding adjectives, players can also modify these nouns to create different word combinations, triggering innumerable whimsical scenarios such as: a 'flaming snowman' that can set a Christmas tree on fire; a 'homicidal house' that can attack a man; and a 'carnivorous bike' that can eat a corpse."

"Players can also elect to summon 'cartoony' versions of bats, bombs, guns, and flamethrowers. These types of items can be used to destroy objects or even other summoned items (e.g., a bat can be used to club a skydiver; guns can be fired at smelly zombies; a knife can be given to a murderous computer to attack a merman)."

What's more, the summary -- much like the one for Scribblenauts -- decided to politely mention how you can summon vomit. If I ever have kids, I'll be sure to prevent them from playing any games that contain puke. Thanks for the heads up, guys!

...a knife can be given to a murderous computer to attack a merman).

I love the image produced by this organization of words.

Also, is that a Spice Worm? Cause if it is......



I approve.

Can they just put the ESRB description on the back of the box? Also, HE WHO CONTROLS THE SPICE, CONTROLS THE UNIVERSE!

This description alone has convinced me to buy this, even though the first got real dull real fast.

I won't get fooled again into a first day purchase. I'm skeptical.

I wonder if the sandworm came from someone typing "pygmy shai-hulud".
