I don't think that sales are just plumming, but the PC version is getting all the sales problably. Its way easier to type on a keyboard and steam workshop added the option to share your own creations with the community in a very straigth forward way.
And they are really milking the franchise. Wiiu has less than2 year of life and alreadly had 2 title from the serire before get the 1st year annyversary. It seems warner will try to do a lego with it, beting on licensed titles every now and then.
About the scriblenatus series, i think my main problem with it is that my imagination don't aways work in the same way the game does. Some times i tried to start a rain, and instead i get a litle amount of water, not all intercations work that well. One thing that could help is if we had the option to go trough a list(indexed and categorized, obviously) with all the things we can use. I got bored pretty fast the first tiem i tried, but maybe this help with the sense of discovery, instead of trying to remenber cool words to test.
"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
