Cheat: Re-Use Words in Challenge Mode
Challenge Mode encourages you to get creative by not allowing you to use the same words in three separate trials. If you are feeling uncreative, you can take advantage of The Great Adjective Exploit to bypass this entirely: just add an adjective (or gibberish) in front of a word and the game will give you a free pass to use it again. For instance, to "reuse" MONSTER, type SCARY MONSTER or GIANT MONSTER and the game will react as if you just used the term MONSTER for the first time!

Cheat: Bring the Starite to You
A glitch, of sorts, in Scribblenauts can make the "Get the Starite" levels a breeze. Create "HANDCUFFS" and attach one end to the Starite. Create a "VENDING MACHINE" and set it next to the Starite, stretching the free handcuff over and attaching it to the machine. After attaching it, you'll suddenly get the option to "fill" the machine with the cuffs and, surprisingly, the Starite attached to them. You can now freely move that vending machine to your location, unpack it and grab the Starite. It's crude, cowardly and oh-so-effective.

Cheat: Move a Starite Through a Metal Beam
To move a Starite through a solid metal beam, attach the starite to a chain, and the chain to the beam. If the beam is lying flat, the Starite will fall through the beam. If its vertical, use a Fan (tool) and direct it through the beam. It will fly through while still attached to the chain.

Hint: Easy Ollars
On the final "Get to the Starite" level, you can reach the Starite by walking over to the four walls, waiting for them to move up and simply grabbing the Starite.
