In this day and age, honest to goodness originality is a rare quality. All music sounds like music that's been made before and all films are dull retreads of older films – so what about Scribble? Is Scribble the blast of wintry originality that we've been waiting for?

No, not really. Well, yes. Sort of. No. No it's not. Oh, it's so hard to say. If you look at the raw materials of Scribble, you could describe Scribble as half Lemmings and half Draw Line in that you control a bunch of Lemming-y things by drawing lines with your mouse. But once you start playing Scribble it completely becomes a new game in its own right. You direct your Scribble creatures with hand-drawn slopes and walls, desperately hoping that your lines don't suddenly fade and plunge your Scribble creatures onto whatever nastiness you're trying to protect them from. While Scribble can at times seem a bit like trying to keep 150 plates spinning at once, it's a joy to behold once you've got the hang of it.
