Zoombinis 9+

I loved this game when my son played it, and now he's grown and we're both playing it again. I'm so glad they kept the original sound and the graphics are just as I remember them. (Can never get enough of those pizza trolls.) Occasionally, the game freezes and I can't get the last couple of zoombinis through the puzzle. However, I have always been able to click the "next" arrow, so most of them will advance. My other complaint is there are only 400 zoombinis to a game now, and there should be 625. What's the point of a math game if you don't do the math????

I am a long time fan and purchased this reincarnation through their Kickstarter campaign, but the game had been marred by a glitch in the Mirror Room on hardest difficulty that would occasionally give you a puzzle that wasn’t solvable, or the solution required more than 3 tiles on one side, or where the tiles would cease to lock into place on the left side. The new version has corrected this issue so that it plays like the original game. Great, fun logic puzzles for all ages. NOTE: I noticed one reviewer complaining that no matter when a “changing” tile was dropped it would not lock in the desired feature. That’s not how they work. The changing tiles key off of the feature of the Zoombini being mirrored. So if you have a blinking nose color tile, putting it in front of a Zoombini with a red nose will always give you the same result, for example a blue nose. It does not matter what color is on the tile when you drop it, what matters is what is on the Zoombini being filtered.

I’m so excited to have this game back! I loved it so much when I was a kid. I have noticed though in this version on the very very hard level moving from the raft to the lily pads in who’s bayou that even if I get all of the zoombinis on the raft I lose one when I get to the lily pads! This is super frustrating because I would love to try and accomplish getting all of them through but with that glitch I can’t. Otherwise great work
