Adjectives would be simple enough. A single number representing the certain mix of adjectives, overlay a sprite on the base sprite (flames on the pterodactyl). And then, you'd have to limit the number of independents on the screen to roughly 4. ROUGHLY.The DS game actually ignores adjectives completely, unless an object name does contain that combination of adjective+noun (which is rare).Well, more precisely, the first Scribblenauts ignores adjectives, but the second one does implement adjectives.
