Emergent gameplay is the biggest advantage that games have over other media, and few games have captured that potential like the encyclopedic summoning platformer Scribblenauts.

Its sequel, Super Scribblenauts, added adjectives to the already densely laden dictionary of useable nouns, making practical use of descriptors like “flaming,” “undead,” and “tasty.”

GU Comics admits the darker side of player freedom in this strip, exposing the corrupted element of human nature. Hobbes (of Leviathan, not Calvin) would concur.
