Play Zoombinis and guide the little blue creatures through fun and increasingly challenging puzzles on their way to a new home.
Zoombinis is a re-creation of the classic, award-winning 1990’s puzzle game Logical Journey of the Zoombinis. The small blue creatures, each with distinct personalities and appearances, are escaping imprisonment by the evil Bloats who have taken over the Zoombinis' home. Players take on the role of the guide and help the Zoombinis reach the safety of Zoombiniville.
Use logic, analyze data, spot patterns and hone problem solving skills. Players face a series of increasingly difficult challenges that stand between the Zoombinis and freedom.

I really loved this game as a kid, so I am overjoyed about its return. However I have to say the game is buggy on my device, for example on the fleens level at the end if you get the fish animation it crashes my game. Also on bubble wonder abyss there is no grid and just arrows, making the level even more challenging than it really should be. Finally on the maps the pictures for the crystal chamber level and bubble wonder abyss are absent when playing with a group of zoombinis. Otherwise, this is a brilliant game and I would certainly recommend.

Such a great past time The original narrator and character voices are so comforting. The zoombinis are so cute and jump around to celebrate every level passed.. usually! The visuals are all accurate to the original also. Only wish there was a zoom-in feature especially for the lilypad level, really hard to see what you're doing there. The game will challenge your brain and is extremely addictive. Really good if you need to pass time but will drain battery. It's worth it whatever the cost!

Too glitchy for a pay-for app I love this game and was so excited to see it here. It works well for the most part, but when you get to the harder levels, it starts freezing. I'm not happy that I spent money on this game, and it has some pretty big issues. Dear Developers, please fix this!

Glitchy Sometimes when I'm on the prism puzzle, the game glitches out and I can't Place the trait tiles in front of the Pictures. Sometimes on the fleens Puzzle when l get the last one off the branch, a Zoombini falls (even though it's not near the end of the branch) then the game won't let me continue the Journey. I've had to start back at the campsite multiple times.

Don't Buy It! I read the reviews and thought, "Oh, how bad could these glitches be?" They're bad. I want a refund because you're paying $6 or 7 (at least in Korea) for this app and it doesn't even work. This company should be ashamed of itself for not trying to correct this through an update. Most of us are loyal Zoombini fans who still remember the game long after it's gone (at least from computers). Don't we deserve at least a full, working game? Or have you just become that greedy?

Love Love this game. Used to play it all the time when I was a kid. Trying to pass the fleen level purple. Freezes everytime I finally get all the fleens out. The green arrow won't light up. Although I am losing 2 zoombinis. Am I missing somethin?

Thank you!!!!!@! I can't express my gratitude to you guys for bringing this back. This game defined my childhood and now I can waste hours as an adult as well developing my cognitive skills while saving the Zoombini civilization for posterity. It makes me wish I had children so I could share it with them but alas I am too busy saving the zoombini to have kids.
Love it! I loved this game growing up, and it's still a great game to play in my 20s. The puzzles become very challenging as the game gets more difficult. Ive gotten pretty far, and now I'm having some problems. I found a bug (I have a Samsung Galaxy Note3) In the Crystal Cave level at 3/4 difficulty where the crystal plates wouldn't always sit properly on the left side if they were incorrect, and now when I open the app and select my save file, the game won't load. If there were a server for save data, it'd be 5☆
Great to have this game back! I think this game is one of the greatest edutainment games around. The games are genuinely challenging and present skills that need a bit more light in a way that is interesting and compelling. As for the remaster, the upgraded graphics are beautiful and are perfectly reminiscent of the original style and keeping the original soundtrack was a very good choice. Overall, nice to have you back again, zoombinis.
This is why I've studied Computer Science Magnificent game from my childhood, wonderfully adapted and upscaled for modern screens. There have been a couple moments where I've found it difficult to release right where I need to - but that's when playing it on a phone screen. I hope that the rest of the series is brought to modern platforms as well; Mountain Rescue was a spectacular title. Wonderful new graphics, fantastic educational gameplay, usable controls: 5/5 and my firm recommendation.
I love you I remember searching for this on the app store a while ago and being so sad, though not surprised, to find nothing. Then this just happened to pop up in my recommendations and I...have honestly never been so excited about a game?? It's so beautiful and runs so smoothly, there are a few bugs but overall it's quite amazing. I'm drenched in nostalgia and it feels like I'll never be bored again tbh. Thank you so much for bringing this beloved childhood memory into the present!!
Nostalgia is over 9000 I loved this game as a kid, would play it for hours. Missed the kickstarter (weeping forever). This game is still great, as awesome as i remembered. There's a few bugs, like in the Mirror Machine it doesn't always recognize that I'm trying to pick up a zoombini, especially if i just received a text message. Also, audio isn't the cleanest in places, but it's fine. I love it. Recommending it to all my irl friends.
Huge amounts of fun I actually bought this for my husband to play on his tablet, but I think I end up playing in more than he does. It's a huge amount of fun to play, but I have an issue where the game will randomly quit and take me back to the tablet home screen. Obviously this can be frustrating, especially if you're in the middle of a level, but it's worth it to keep on playing!
Loving the throwback I used to play this game as a kid and loved it! So glad it came back and I find myself wondering how I played some of these hard levels as a kid. :P Anyone else having a problem though where the last section won't move up the higher levels? I have over 200 in zoombini land but that last section is still on easy mode. :/
Old zoombini lover I could pick holes and point out that the pizza machine isn't the same etc. i miss the mouth, the lion used to smile and didn't have a ball, the sound affect isn't the same in the mirror machine, but I'm so glad to have this game back and ready for the next generation! Just hurry up and make the rest of them please!
Brings back memories! I love this game when I was a kid. I would play it for hours! The price is a little high, but I thought it would probably be worth it. **There is something missing... When the zoombinis move, the sounds aren't there like the original. The bike would rumble and backfire, this shoes would squeak, the fan would flutter, etc. That is the only thing I can think of that isn't there.
