People and Jobs Words List for Scribblenauts on Nintendo DS, DSi

Word Lists and Strategy Guide for Scribblenauts on Nintendo DS / DSi. From Bomb Disposal Unit to Samurai, use People to solve puzzles and defeat enemies.

Scribblenauts offers truly unique, open-ended, "emergent gameplay" for the Nintendo DS Lite / DSi handheld gaming systems by developer 5th Cell. The main character Maxwell must solve puzzles by summoning objects, creatures, and people using the DS Stylus and writing the objects to make them spring to life. Write "Vampire" and a Vampire appears, write "Holy Water" and Maxwell can throw Holy Water at the Vampire to kill him.

In Scribblenauts, the objective and true fun-factor isn't about solving puzzles and winning the game, it's about doing so in as imaginative way as possible. Sure, a handful of useful objects can be used time and time again to solve many of the game's puzzles, but why not try some of the more imaginative objects below?

Read on for lists of unique people words, jobs, and warriors, for solutions both peaceful and destructive, for Scribblenauts on Nintendo DS / DSi.

Useful Job / Profession Words

  • Bomb Disposal Unit
  • Butcher
  • Construction Worker
  • Diver
  • Engineer
  • Lion Tamer
  • Lumberjack
  • Musician
  • Pilot
  • Snake Charmer
  • Terrorist

The Bomb Disposal Unit can diffuse bombs, mines, etc, making it one of the more useful professions in the game, especially on levels where the Starite sits dangerously close to an explosive. The Engineer comes in a close second, however, since the person will automatically flip nearby switches, allowing Maxwell to summon an Engineer to flip a switch he cannot reach by himself.

The Lion Tamer and Snake Charmer don't require much explanation, though strangely, the Snake Charmer doesn't seem to charm snakes so much as kill them. It works either way though.

A Lumberjack, with an axe or chainsaw in hand, will cut down any trees nearby, which may be useful in certain situations.

It may seem odd and anti-patriotic to claim a Terrorist to be a useful in a video game, but it is! While not as useful as the Bomb Disposal Unit, a Terrorist comes equipped with a match and will automatically set off bombs and other explosives, sometimes killing himself in the process. In addition to getting rid of the explosives, a Terrorist can be used multiple times (if picked up before the explosion) to light multiple explosives in different locations, if necessary.

Strong Warriors and Fighters Word List

  • Enemy
  • Hero
  • Knight
  • Ninja
  • Pirate
  • Samurai
  • Soldier
  • Witch
  • Wizard

Samurai and Hero are two extremely powerful melee attack characters in the game, while Witch and Wizard offer two powerful long-range alternatives. Soldier also works well as a long-range fighter. Note that the Witch is not a friendly character, and will attack anyone including Maxwell.
