Mods, the only reason I'm mentioning this torrent is because the 2.0 version required for modern gaming is something I've never, ever found reasonably within a store. All supposed versions are the pre 2.0 bundles. If someone knows a place to still obtain this, legit, I'll remove the link.

After listening to my sweetheart nostalgia over this game, I made it my evening goal to find a working version. After much searching and investigation, I've come across a torrent that serves everyeone's needs.

http://www.kat.ph/zoombinis-logical-journey-mountain-rescue-and-island-odyssey-t2445689.html

I've tested this torrent personally and there's a few things to note:

It works on 64-bit Windows, due to the executable being full and proper 32-bit
The versions are updated to include bugfixes, DirectX stability changes
Mounting the ISO files with Virtual Clonedrive (freeware: http://www.slysoft.com/en/virtual-clonedrive.html) did not require a crack to run, so long as you kept the ISO mounted while playing. Also DAEMON TOOLS AND SIMILAR TEND TO CAUSE PROBLEMS WITH THIS GAME AND MANY OTHERS
Running the game in Windows 95 compatibility mode fixes most audio glitches
That torrent includes the 2.0 Logical Journey in combination with the two expansions.

Hopefully this aids the community, especially because of how difficult to obtain the 2.0 version is for modern operating systems. Happy girlfriends are best girlfriends.

PS: I'll be seeding

Installation issues? A few people are having installation issues. I've now tested the entire installation process on three Windows 7 x64, fully updated, computers. All three needed no compatibility settings and all three used Virtual Clonedrive. If you're having issues don't hesitate to ask. If the installer worked just fine for you, let us know.

We had Oregon trail in the computer lab since they were old school apples, we had newer macs in the classrooms though and that my friend is where we mastered Simcity 2000.

Also brace yourself for the "In my school, this was installed on every PC. [FIXED]".

God damn I recognized it from the thumbnail, the pinnacle of gaming. My mom used to take my sister and me to piano lessons at the same time, and during the other sibling's lesson we got to play this on the teacher's computer. That was when I realized I didn't give a damn about piano and just wanted to be a piece of shit who played video games all day. 11 years later, living the dream.

monotone__robot · 7 months

I loved this game so much as a kid. Bought a copy to try and relive my youth and discovered it is INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT, if not impossible, to get it running on Vista or Windows 7.

JuicyBeans · 7 months

I use to play this all the time along with a PC game about some fish? I can't remember the name AT ALL. And this other game where you're a trucker and you go cross-country and have to stop at a hotel or sleep in your truck. You also pass by hitchhikers and have to decide whether to give them a ride or keep driving. Anyone know that last one I mentioned?? :(

Glory2Hypnotoad · 7 months

Good God, it's been years since I've even thought about this game. Loved it so much when I was younger. Seriously tempted to pick it up again.

lemuffins · 7 months

I love you so much for posting this. I couldn't remember the name for the life of me and whenever I tried describing it to people I usually got a confused look or a "lemmings?".

mutantofwar · 7 months

Dad bought me this when I was a kid. Surprisingly it was as addictive as my PS1. Would always try and get through to the end without losing any Zoombinis.

alexleafman · 7 months

All we had was some tron game that everyone played over the LAN. That was fun.

The computers I used in film were beasts though, and I installed plenty of shit on them to play while editing.

NOSTALGIA FLASHBACK

TheLurkersWill · 7 months

pfft, we had the Hugo games on our school computers, one class, that I still remember some 10-12 years later, was devoted to working through a walkthrough for the first game.

The day we managed to beat the third game without a walkthrough was one of my proudest moments in Primary School!

PanicStil · 7 months

ZOOMBENIIIES!!! OMG i loved this. Did anyone else have... i think it was called Crystal Rainforest? adventure game.

inspektorjavert · 7 months

I bought this game when I was like 10 years old because I thought that on the box it said "Adventure of the Zombies". Couldn't believe that my parents let me buy it. Was so damned happy. Until I installed it, wtf'ed and read the title on the box again. I have never been so disappoint.

[deleted] · 7 months

I had been trying to think of the title for this the other day, but after seeing this picture I immediately ctrl+T'd my way into a new tab and typed in Zoombinis without a second thought. Thank you, good person, for helping to jog my memory.

this game was dam near impossible to play the pizza level with without audio! My whole computer class would just guess randomly at this point. When someone actually won, the whole class got up and cheered because it was such a rare occurrence.

Ah the Zoombinis, my favorite childhood game about profiling and judging based on looks.

ch0c0ch1p · 7 months

MORE TOPPINGS!

Recently some friends of mine ran a dual boot of windows 95 and fucked up one of their computers to play this game - we randomomized a bunch of Zoombinis and one came out with the name OVIKRAPE.

Needless to say, OVIKRAPE was immediately hailed as the chief Zoombini of our empire, and we worked tirelessly so that him and his slaves could progress.

There's one computer lab in my school that has Starcraft installed on some of the PC's. Sadly, I wasn't assigned to a computer that has it. Instead, idiots that go, "WTF?! WHAT'S LoL DOING HERE?! THE GAME SUX" gets to have them. ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
