Found the trick in question. It was listed as "Vending Machine Trick". You attach handcuffs to a starite, spawn a basket, then try to attach the other side of the handcuffs to a vending machine or a basket (it's a little trickier with a basket, but at least it fits in most levels). If you attach it correctly, you get a popup with "Fill" or "attach" as options. Choose 'fill'. The starite goes into the basket. Then move the basket to where Maxwell is, open the basket, and voila, you just completed the level. Keep in mind that this trick requires that the starite is on-screen._Chaz_ said:Blaze163 said:Sweet. Despite its wonky controls and blatant exploits (IE: the basket trick), Scribblenauts was still a decent game with a lot of potential. If this one irons out a few of the flaws, it'll be well worth my time.
I Googled "Scriblenauts Basket Trick" and this post was the first entry. I lqtm'd so hard.
EDIT: I managed to find a game-crashing glitch. Find a level with water (or just use the beach scene on the "Press Start" screen). Put a rope in the water, and attach a fireball to it. The game freezes.
