Does anyone remember playing Zoombinis? I played that game so much I still know the speech of the various characters off by heart. Fleens?

I was so happy when i finally got all 350 or so zoombinis to Zoombiniville.
And you had so much fun you didnt care that you were learning.

There have been a few remakes of this game, going for a more 3d look but these come no way near capturing the essence of the original.

Yeah, they had that at my old school. I saw it in the shops recently and I went and bought it, that was kind of embarrassing.
"Um... it's for... my little brother... yeah, that's who it's for."

I never got 'em all there but it was good fun. What happened when you did? I hope you can still remember because I never had the patience to find out.

This brings up memories of chips bags and empty soda cans all over as I was playing with my eyes situated on nothing else.

I cant really remember the ending but i think you get a cute lil cutscene as the last zoombinis reach the isle, you couldnt play anymore but you could go into zoombinville and check out the buildings youve discovered and all the houses and 300 zoombinis all over the mountains. It looked pretty cool.
