New MacOS installation software in 2005 version

My five year old grandson and I have had a wonderful time playing with this game. We learned a lot about logic, and we learned that we have different learning styles.

The 2005 version which I got from Amazon (see separate listing) has a Mac OS X installer which installed this game flawlessly in less than a minute. I have no experience with the 2001 version.

I wish I have read these 1 star comments before I purchase this CD. I received 2001 version (have they ever updated?). It doesn't work on my 2004 (XP) computer. After installing, I click "play", it ruined my computer setting and disappeared. I tried to uninstall and install again, nothing changes. I have to return the CD. It is really disappointed experience.

Greatly disappointed with this product. Purchased along with Gizmos and Gadgets. Neither one of these programs would run on my Computer System.
Must be seriously behind the current windows!! Not worth returning hassle.

very fun

I bought the program hopping it would work for me... well it does half of the time. My son saw it when I first installed and now that it doesnt work he keeps asking me for it... mom fix it please... For a while it wouldnt even read the disk, now that it does, Im afraid to take it out of the driver because I dont know it will work again. What a shame.

My son loves this

I got this for my 8yr old son, he loves it. he said its a little bit hard but would play all day if i let him. There are printables that he likes. I have Vista so i had to install with compatibility wizard.

It stays with you forever

My parents bought this game for us kids for Christmas. I was 10 then and still remember it like it was yesterday. With all the Technology kids have these days, the only game I want my kids playing on the computer is Zoombinis. It is so fun and you don't even know you are memorizing and learning. The ages say 8 and up, but my 5 year old loves it. My 2 year old loves the music and colorful activities. This is a must have game and will stick with you forever.

Other reviewers warned this game might not be compatible with my newer PC. However the description and the packaging plainly state it is compatible for Windows XP. After installing the game, when we clicked on it to start, my computer froze and I had to re-boot. I must have installed and un-installed this game 5 times not to mention all the times I had to totally shut down the system. I've finally given up. Very disappointed. I bought this for my granddaughter and had hoped that it would help improve her math skills.

Not able to install

The manufacturer evidently doesn't offer support for this product, and the company that they referred us to is hard to reach / get help from.

Zoombinis Logical Disaster

Sad to say, that after playing "Email-Tag" with the vendor and continually trying everything advised to me, I still couldn't get this game to work. I also have XP and eventhough I set the compatibility mode to one of the younger windows versions, windows shut down on me and I wasn't able to get the disc out of the driver. To retrieve the disc I had to restart my computer. What a disaster! I am just glad I didn't pay major bucks.
