Tried to go to their tech site and never got a reply.The I Spy series is a great alternative. Too bad, it looked really good. Every other game purchased that runs on Windows 2000 ran on my 2000 xp. This one doesnt.
I think she is picking-up new skills and it is interesting for us to work out the problems with her. I purchased this game for my six-year old daughter thinking it might be too hard. The video at the start is jumpy, but there haven't been other problems. It runs okay on Mac OS X. It is and it isn't. She couldn't do it on her own, but it is good fun for her and her parents.
Reviews look great but the program won't startup.Tried reinstalling several times.Tried compatibility mode (Win 98, Win NT,Win2K).Tried running the exe directly from the Program Files.The initial screen comes up but then clicking on "Start Game" does not work.
My five-year old son has enjoyed playing this game with me; I imagine that when he gets older he will enjoy playing it on his own as well.
From there, just follow the instructions and set it to around "Windows 98" or so. Here's how to make it work for all you people:1) Go to the Control Panel.2) Click the word "Programs" to open its menu.3) Under "Programs and Features", the first on the list, click "Use an older program with this version of Windows", the fourth on the list just under the title.This opens the "Program Compatibility Wizard". Adjust if necessary.Once that's all done, you never have to worry about making it work again, since it'll do this setting automatically for Zoombinis from now on.Hope you enjoy it. This game is every bit like the old one I used to play on older computers. However, it took me a while to work it out on Vista.
