Zoombini’s Logical Journey
This unique software offers an engaging environment for kids to develop advanced mathematical and scientific problems solving skills.
As the player's skills improve, each puzzle becomes more difficult to solve. Four levels of difficulty for all 12 puzzles ensure the ongoing development of critical thinking skills for years to come.
Special Features Include: Practice Mode; Helpful Puzzle Clues
Skills Developed: Observation Skills; Data Sorting and Ordering; Pattern Finding; Theory Testing; Graphing; Logical Reasoning; Problem Solving; Statistical Thinking; Algebraic Thinking
Your Mission: Free the Zoombinis! Guide bands of Zoombinis through 48 perilous puzzles that never play out the same way twice.
Your Reward: After solving a series of increasingly challenging puzzles, you will have ensured the safe arrival of the Zoombinis in Zoombiniville. The more Zoombinis you lead to freedom, the larger Zoombiniville will grow.
Start your journey by solving puzzles that demonstrate observation, sorting and theory testing skills. Meet Arno, one hungry, but fussy, Pizza-Eating Tree Troll. Discover which combination of pizza toppings satisfy his testy taste buds by finding patterns, matching data and testing theories. Sort different features to discover which ones don't make the Allergic Cliffs sneeze.
Find your way out of The Deep Dark Forest by performing two- and three-dimensional mapping, matching and grouping. To find a seat on the ferry, sort and order Zoombinis so they share something in common with their neighbours. Using the Zoombinis features as coordinates X and Y, place each Zoombini in the proper room at the hotel.
Advance through treacherous waters by testing your ability to order and group data and analyse patterns. To cross the marsh, hitch a ride on the backs of toads by finding the right pattern of colours and shapes on flowers and lily pads Lure the Fleens off the beehive branch by identifying patterns, matches and more.
Ensure the Zoombinis' safe arrival in Zoombiniville by cleverly analysing, organising and sequencing data. Send the Zoombinis in the right directions by uncovering intriguing mathematical rules. Balance the 'equation' by transforming the features of the Zoombinis on the left and right to make them identical.
