Zoombinis

such a fun game but omg i wish there were extra routes like i'd love to plan them like maybe an ice and desert biome and then also splitting up main routes for more variation i actually have like 12 hours on this game i was actually offline

I played this on pc as a kid in the 90s. My parents usually only allowed educational games and this came in a pack of Broderbund titles. My sisters and I loved its goofy style and puzzles. It looked like a little kid game, but the puzzles get quite complicated, especially if you raise the challenge level. I was not disappointed playing it again. I admit there is a bit of nostalgia bias on my end, but this was really fun to buy and play with my kids. At the time of this writing, I have a 1st grader and a 7th grader who both like puzzle/logic games. The object of the game is to get all of the Zoombinis safely from their Isle that was taken over by a group of mean creatures and get them to a new home. The graphics still hold up well and the characters and voices are as fun as I remember. My 1st grader needs help even on the lowest setting, but we set up her own profile and play together. She loves creating the Zoombinis and trying to do whatever she can as we go through the different challenges on the journey. My 7th grader and I were enjoying figuring out the challenges on our first few rounds while laughing at the noises, voices, etc... This isn't a game that is going to keep a teen or adult busy all day, but if you like something to play occasionally that is a simple format, yet still challenges your logic muscles because you can raise the challenge level, then hopefully you enjoy this one. It is repetitive to a degree because you're doing the journey as many times as it takes you to get all the Zoombinis from the Isle to the new Zoombiniville, but each time you depart will be different based on the group of Zoombinis you're guiding. No boss battles or fighting, just different logic puzzles to solve to make your way through. Sometimes you'll lose a few in the challenges and they go back to the last camp and you'll have to try again another time.

Wonderful trip down memory lane. The best puzzles are all at the beginning, so the whole thing is a little tiring at the end, but it's still great.

Ein Remake vom Klassiker. Gleiche sounds, überarbeitete Hintergründe soweit alles süß und gut. Aber manche levels sind ziemlich verbuggt. Habe jetzt schon häufiger beim letzten Rätsel mit den Seifenblasen Keine lösbare map gefunden. Tatsächlich war es maps mit nur einer Startposition die aber ausschließlich Zoombinis in Wirbel geleitet hat. (als erster ausschluss war zB einäugige, meine gesamte gruppe war aber einäugig). Außerdem hatte ich schon zwillings zoombinis die bei sortierspielen als unterschiedliche merkmale durchgingen und gleich im ersten level laufen manchmal zoombinis noch über die hängebrücke, wenn diese bereits gefallen ist. Also eigentlich wäre es ein schöner Nostalgiker, wenn nicht diese nervigen Bugs wären. Das alte Zoombini hat eben einfach funktioniert. Trotzdem kann man sich das spiel sicher gut kaufen, muss halt etwas Frust in kauf nehmen wenn man manche levels einfach mehrfach machen muss.

This is a wonderful logic puzzler for kids. I played it when it was a kid and now my kid is loving it. HIP HIP, ZOOMBINIS!!!
