The original release of the game by Broderbund Europe in March 1996 came in three languages: British (v1.0BR), French (v1.0FR), and German (v1.0DE). The US division of Broderbund made some minor changes and released a US version (v1.1) in December 1996. As part of the US release they chose to change the names of several areas of the game as follows:

* Zoombiniton was renamed to Zoombiniville.
* The Marshy Trail was renamed to Who's Bayou.
* Didimension Hotel was renamed to Hotel Dimensia.

In addition the following changes were made to v1.1:

* A 32-bit version of the game was added, providing performance improvements for 32-bit operating systems. The 16-bit version remained available for compatibility with Windows 3.x.
* A new help feature was added, providing assistance to players who are stuck.
* Minor changes were made to some areas. For example, color-changing mushrooms were added to Shelter Rock.
* A link to 'Practice Mode' was added to the map screen (previously the player was required to press the keyboard shortcut CTRL+P in order to use Practice Mode)
* The rate of advancement through difficulty levels was slowed, meaning that players advance in levels after three successful passes through a leg of puzzles instead of one pass.
* The save game format was changed slightly. Saves from v1.0 are compatible with v1.1, but not the other way around.

Remake (v2.0)

The US version of the game (v1.1) was expanded and republished as "Zoombinis: Logical Journey v2.0" by The Learning Company in 2001. The following changes were made since v1.1:

* A brand new executable was written for the game, using DirectX rather than QuickTime.
* This version is only available as a 32-bit executable.
* A number of new mouse sense features were added.
