#HE LOGICAL JOURNEY OF THE ZOOMBINIS SOFTWARE#

The four difficulty levels are 'Not So Easy', 'Oh So Hard', 'Very Hard', and 'Very Very Hard', and each difficulty level is color-coded (green, purple, yellow, and red, respectively). If three parties of 16 are brought through a leg, the difficulty of that leg increases for future trips (unless it is already the maximum difficulty, named 'Very, Very Hard' and color-coded red). Near the beginning of each game, the player has the ability to select a party of Zoombinis by choosing. Some elementary school math textbooks feature pictures of Zoombinis.

#HE LOGICAL JOURNEY OF THE ZOOMBINIS SOFTWARE#

The first time the player successfully brings an entire party of 16 Zoombinis through a leg, a building will be constructed at Zoombiniton/Zoombiniville to celebrate this achievement. Zoombinis Zoombinis are the main creatures in a series of educational software made by The Learning Company designed for child education.The Learning Company recommends the game for children only at and after age 8. Between each 'leg' is a campsite where the Zoombinis can be stored for later retrieval. The first and last 'legs' are compulsory and must be completed by all Zoombinis for the second leg, the player is given a choice to take either the north or the south path. There are 12 puzzles in total, split into four sections of 3 puzzles each, and the Zoombinis must complete a path of 9 puzzles to establish their new home at 'Zoombiniton' ('Zoombiniville' in US version). The Zoombinis travel in groups of a maximum of 16 per group across a series of puzzles.

Of these, 625 must be saved in order to win the game. In total, there are 625 unique combinations, of which the game allows to make up to two Zoombinis (twins) with each combination, making 1,250 possible Zoombinis in total. For example, in the puzzle 'Allergic Cliffs', the player is given a choice of 2 bridges, each of which will allow Zoombinis to pass only if they have certain combinations of features. Most of the puzzles involve the physical features of the Zoombinis as part of the solution. The game depicts the Zoombinis' search for a new home, featuring a variety of logical puzzles which the player must solve to get the Zoombinis to their new home. Later they are tricked and enslaved by their neighbors, the Bloats. The Zoombinis are a race of small blue creatures depicted with varying facial features, initially living in prosperous peace on a small island called Zoombini Isle.
