Zoombinis - A Logical Journey of Childhood Flashbacks

[ThaiGrocer]

I used to play this when I was a kid and, looking back, it tricked me and countless other children into having fun with algebra. A toast to the Zoooombinis!

The introduction video is from the first [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoombinis"]Zoombinis[/URL] game, "The Logical Journey of the Zoombinis". It was later renamed to "Zoombinis: Logical Journey". The sequels don't seem as great and one of them attempted to make the Zoombinis 3D, which totally killed the beautiful hand-drawn art.

Goddamn pizza stumps

[Program Files]

being french, the narrator had no effect on me.

But oh shit the god damn music made my nostalgia go far up.

[RaptorBlackz]

Loved playing this game.

[Aurora93]

I never played Zoombinis, but fucking hell, I remember Treasure Mountain.

"GREAT JOB SUPER SOLVER"

Or was it Seeker? I can't remember

[editline]02:07AM[/editline]

Oh wait that was Treasure Mathstorm. I remember that one a lot more.

I'm confusing them.

[cliffracers]

Brings back the memories.
That pizza gobbling sonofabitch was an asshole though

[ClosetSkeleton]

Sweeeeet fuck that's a major salmon of nostalgia you just slapped me with.

[Occlusion2018]

I played it the other day. It was like a nostalgia nuke. Especially the noise of the tree stump moving

[Sigfig]

I got my mom to use this as a teaching aid at he elementary school she teaches at.
It was a big hit with the kids, but the network admin guy decided that it was evil and a virus.

[RaptorBlackz]

Ahh the old days. Mr's Thompson with zoombinis.

[A Glitch]

oh jesus christ nostalgiagasm

[NeoTurtle]

I found this a few weeks back and actually had an orgasm

[DrMelon]

Wow, I just got teleported into my past. I loved this.

[Thechuz]

Oh god, the memories.

[Wingar]

I just got slapped with a chicken breast of nostalgia, thank you for awakening these long lost feelings, I love this game.

[ThaiGrocer]

I found my old copy of the game and I'm going to setup an experiment with my nephew to see if it still appeals to newer generations. I think it should work with Windows 7 with a bit of tweaking!

I absolutely LOVED this game when I was a lad. Me and my friend got as far as the 3rd island in a single run. We got school cred for weeks :smug:

[Ice]

And I thought I couldn't nostalgia any more today. I was wrong.

I was fucking scared as shit of the Abyss level, because whenever I lost a Zoombini to the bubble whirlpools the game made me believe that [I]the Zoombini had fallen into the ether and would never return, ever.[/I] I spent hours making sure that I could get every Zoombini safely across the Abyss before getting another batch. I'm still scared of that level.

[Funsize]

I borrowed this off my friend when I was young, and loved every minute of it, (well, untill I tried to get every last zoombini to their new home)
We were even talking about it a few weeks ago.

I remember playing this in my school library where all the teachers loved this game as well. We learned about fractions with making pizza.

[GeneralGunnut]

I'm glad I still have this game :P

[BlackRainbow]

I wish I still had this :saddowns:

I'm sure if you search the bargain bins you'll be able to find it for cheap. It was redone to work with Windows XP a while back. [URL="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005LBVU/&tag=tie-chennai.org-20"]Amazon has it for like $7[/URL]. I got it working on Windows 7 32-Bit, but I had to fiddle with it. The game is still crazy fun, especially the part where you have to customize your Zoombinis.
