The Logical Adventure of the Zoombinis and Reader Rabbit are so nostalgic parts of my childhood. I so vividly remember trying to teach myself boolean logic at age 7 or 8 because of the "boolies".

Turns out those games are actually on Steam!

I, too, grew up on the first-ever Zoombinis game. I actually recently played through it again almost 15+ years later. Everything from the sound effects to the visuals is seared somewhere deep in my neural wetware like a permanent ROM chip. Funnily enough, some of the puzzles still confused me! I guess my colorblindness certainly hasn't been magically cured over time...

Thanks so much to OP for linking this article.

Ooh, I remember Zoombinis! Our teacher loaded it up on the classroom computer used to use it as a way to keep kids busy once they finished their math assignments. This, of course, led to everyone rushing to finish their work and crowding around to watch whoever managed to be the first to do so and kept them from bothering the teacher when she was helping the kids who needed more help.

I have much nostalgia for the Super Solver series, and the games Ancient Empires and Operation Neptune.
