The iCreate mode lets players add their own touches to the webisodes by swapping out props, characters, color schemes, audio, intros, outros and other elements.

Up to four players can either compete or cooperate to complete the skits and earn Web-Creds, which can then be used to purchase new items, props, accessories and locations from in-game websites.
