The game arrived in a timely manner. The overall game itself is a little complicated but otherwise fun.

This is an excellent learning game, my 8 year old son was playing it at school and it was all he talked about, I had trouble finding the game in town and finally found on the internet. He has not stopped playing it, HE LOVES IT!!!!
Definitely not Windows XP compatible

I am glad that I tried to set this game up before my grandson came for the weekend. It is definitely not XP compatible. I followed their instructions for converting the XP settings on my computer to a compatible setting. The game did start to work but was very choppy and incomplete. I also did not like the theme of the game. Creatures doing mean things to other creatures. I was very disappointed with Broderbund and The Learning Company. Customer service was also very poor.

My five year old grandson and I have had a wonderful time playing with this game. We learned a lot about logic, and we learned that we have different learning styles.
The 2005 version which I got from Amazon (see separate listing) has a Mac OS X installer which installed this game flawlessly in less than a minute. I have no experience with the 2001 version.

I bought this for my 5 year old that just turned 6 last week. She has played it a lot and enjoys the way she can make the Zoombinis look anyway she likes. She caught on very quickly on how to play most of the journeys. Some journeys are harder than others so she asks for help with those but then once she understands it she has no problem.
It's entertaining, interesting and fun!!!

This game is the perfect combination of logic and mathematics to keep you playing for hours! Create them, lead them and love them!

If you're looking for a great educational game, the Logical Journey of the Zoombinis would be it. With different levels of puzzles that involve patterns and use lots of logic, there's no way you can't learn something. And there's also no way you can't have fun. The only drawback is that it is very addictive, but what great things aren't? If you're thinking about buying this game, don't even hesitate, because it will be well worth your money.
Zoombini rox!
