Project Spark

Open world

In Project Spark you sculpt and paint your own open world with intuitive tools, then build stories and small games inside it and share them with others. Its appeal lies in creation: you are both the maker and the player.

Scribblenauts Unlimited

Puzzles and brain teasers

As Maxwell, you solve puzzles by writing words into a magic notebook that summons almost any object you can imagine, tweaked further with adjectives. It rewards creativity over reflexes, with countless and often hilariously absurd solutions to every problem.

Waking Mars

Sci-fi setting

As a space explorer with a jetpack, you explore Martian caverns and build a working ecosystem out of strange alien life. Understanding how the organisms interact drives the puzzles and gradually reveals the planet's past.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

Open world

Instead of classic platforming, you build your own vehicles from parts for land, sea and air to tackle inventive challenges in a colorful hub world. Its self-mocking humor and creative tinkering define it, though it divided fans of the series' platforming roots.

Lost Nova

Sci-fi setting

After crashing on an alien planet, you explore, salvage, craft, trade and upgrade to find your way home. It mixes platforming action with management and crafting elements.
