Logical Journey of the Zoombinis: Difference between revisions

 

The puzzles in the game are mainly based off of the appearance of the Zoombinis - various hairstyles, nose colors, etc - which was customizable at the start of each trip. Often, the puzzles would require trial and error in order to figure out the rules. The puzzles themselves ranged from braving difficult terrain (crossing bridges over allergic cliffs or traveling over a watery chasm in a bubble) to getting past the locals (like pizza trolls, or Fleens - a related species to the Zoombinis who were mutated by a bad batch of mousse) to simply getting them all in the right place (in their seats on a barge, or in rooms in a hotel).

 

At the very end, the Zoombinis that were successfully led through the dangers would find themselves in Zoombiniville, where they would build greater and greater monuments as the population grew.

** There's also the task of bringing every Zoombini to Zoombiniville. Should you succeed, {{spoiler|[[A Winner Is You|the narrator will loop through the generic "success" messages whenever you're in the Zoombiniville area]]}}.

* [[Amazing Technicolor Population]]: The Zoombinis are blue and the Fleens are green, though neither of them are particularly humanoid.

* [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]: Shyler the pizza troll; his [[Shrinking Violet]] persona doesn't stop him from getting violent with the Zoombinis when they can't get his pizza right.

* [[Evil Laugh]]: One of the several snippets of narration that can play at the Shade Tree rest stop includes the narrator bursting into one for no particular reason.
