When I was in 3rd or 4th grade some kids in my school got a chance to help make a computer game with a big computer game company. Turns out that they got to help name the Zoombinis in the Logical Journey of the Zoombinis. When they finished the game, everyone in the school got a copy.

I loved it! From the day I got it until I had to give away my Macintosh computer when I moved to New York, I played it constantly. It is so much fun, even though it is all about math and is very educational.

I am so excited for Logical Journey of the Zoombinis to actually come out as a computer game, so I can buy it and play it on my PC. Everyone who has a kid or is a kid or was once a kid should buy this game!

A great game thats different

Even through it is for ages 9+ my four year old has been able to play on her own and has really enjoyed the game. It involves thinking logically and is totally different to most of the other software available for children. I also found the game very enjoyable and a challenge at the hardest levels, my four year old plays on the easy level, my seven and six year old are at the second level. The game advances with the child. The child has to successfully complete a path of three games with all 16 zoombinis for a total of four times before the game progresses to the next level so they do not get moved up to quickly. They love making there zoombinis as they can pick the eyes hair feet and nose colour of each zoombini. Some of the puzzles are based on the zoombinis appearence, There eyes hair feet or nose help you decide the bridge/path/seating position etc and no two games are the same. Then there are the games that are not based on the zoombinis features such as deciding what toppings you put on the pizzas so that each of three characters gets the pizza it likes, which path the frogs can take based on colour or leaf shape or pattern on a leaf, which row and colomn you splash mud on that will bounce your zoombinis over the wall. There are a total of nine different games. This game is different from most I have seen in that it requires a different type of thinking. The games are quite different than the ones you find in a lot of other software. This is quite a hard game to describe. For a game that makes a child think and be observant while having fun this is one game that you should have in your childs game collection. It is also a game that will last with your child getting years of use.

When one of my best guy friends showed me this new game he got, I saw the name and thought, "Zoombinis?? What the heck kind of name is that??" But then he showed me how to play the game and I loved it! At a local science and industry center, my cousin and I walked into the computer lab, and I saw that The Logical Journey of the Zoombinis was on option of a game to play. So I said to my cousin, "Hey! You should play this game it's great! But it's very logical. I can help you out." So we played it. My cousin said it was way cool! I would rate this game with 5 stars and 2 thumbs up. It's an all-around "go" for kids. Every time I play the game, my friend and I sit with furrowed brows trying to figure out how to get past a certain level. Although I don't have my own copy of the game, every time I get a chance to play, I'm so excited because this is such a great game. Parents, if you don't want your kids on the computer very much because they aren't learning anything? Or maybe you don't want them to learn about violence. Well, give your kids this game and although they may be skeptical at first, this game is so much fun, and they will learn TONS upon TONS about everyday logic. I told my friend that it was probably one of those educational games that are totally underrated age-wise. But he persisted that I atleast try it, and boy did he prove me wrong! I've been playing it for atleast 2 years now, and I still have not beaten the game! Well parents, if your kid asks for this game, remember... It's the "Logical Journey of the Zoombinis...and the key word here is LOGICAL." :)

In this game, you have to rescue Zoombinis. You meet different challenges such as getting past a hungry monster. When you reach a cupboard, put your party in, then get a new party.

It's entertaining, interesting and fun!!!

This logical game is very fun and interesting to play. It is easy to learn how to play, but difficult to master it. It has approximatly 600 zoombinis that you have to get through a series of puzzles to get them from Zoombini Isle to Zoombiniville. Because you can only take 16 zoombinis at a time it takes a long time to beat the game. As you get further into the game, it goes through four levels and becomes even more challenging. There are 16 different puzzles including difficult ones and some that are relatively simple (at the start at least!). Everybody will love the logic, fun, and difficulty of this game.

This game is very interesting and very fun. We started using this program in C.L.A.S.S. I like designing the Zoombinis and playing the games along the route. I especially like the pizza one where you have to make a pizza that the trees like. It is a very fun way to learn deductive logic. It is also fun where you have to decide which rocks accept each Zoombini. I also like the one where the Zoombinis have to be matched in pairs according to eyes, nose, hair, and shoes. I highly reccomend this program for it's educational purposes and for it's fun purposes.

Very Good

Two or three years ago I got this for my now 11 year old daughter because she monopolized it at her friends' house. Their mother highly recommended it, and I concur. I am now looking to purchase two more for some cousins. They played it over Thanksgiving weekend and both 9 year old boys were hooked! I even became obsessed with for a bit when we first got it. The increasing levels of difficulty lend this game to a wide age range. And the Zoombinis are so cute!
