First off, you may be asking 'What the flup is a Zoombini?' They are little blue balls that have a variety of features. The child playing the game can choose 16 Zoombinis at a time, each with five different features - and five different choices for each feature. I was going to do the math to figure out exactly how many combinations of Zoombinis you could make, but after some serious thought, I decided that it would be better to leave it a mystery.
Zoombinis Mountain Rescue: The Math and Logic Odyssey Continues starts off with the Zoombinis at their new home (to find out why the mix-and-match creatures had to find a new place to live, please get Zoombinis: Logical Journey - it is just as great as this sequel) and a cave entraps several Zoomnbinis in a tunnel outside of the village.
The first goal for the children is to cross the land to go to this cave and save the trapped Zoombinis. They will have to control water flow (by correctly matching up body parts) and avoid Fleens to get to this tunnel. Once there, the kid rescues most of the lost friends, but then you learn that some are scattered inside the cave and now you must find them, as well as take some other creatures, called Boolies, to their home on the other side of the mountain, a place called Booliewood.
