I first played zuma as a one hour free demo...And I was hooked. I loved it so much, the game, the music, I just had to buy the full game the next day!This pc game installs very easily and quickly on vista and doesn't need any serial codes to install. It also doesn't need any nasty online activation and once installed onto your pc it doesn't need the disc to play :).Zuma is a really fun game, those that know games like Luxor will recognise the format, but for those that don't let me explain. Take a look at the image of the front of the box. You control the frog. He's stationary, usually in the centre of the screen but able to completely rotate 360. You control him using your mouse.He has one coloured ball in his mouth and other one stored inside (the colour of this extra ball is displayed on his back). Coloured balls enter the screen in a big line and keep moving, weaving around the screen and around the frog towards a hole. Your mission in each level is to get rid of the balls and stop them entering the hole. If the balls enter the hole you lose a life.The game starts off with some confusing text where you/the frog is being warned not to enter the temple. Just go with this strange text and the game begins. There are several levels. Three temples exist, each with three doors and each door actually contains several levels, numbered 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, etc. So quite a lot of levels to get through, although I warn you that they do repeat, just becoming tougher each time.So how does your frog get rid of those coloured balls? It's easy, you have to shoot a coloured ball out of the frog's mouth at the coloured balls that are in the weaving line of balls by pressing the left mouse button. Every time you shoot a ball at a line and match up the colour from the frog's mouth with at least two balls of the same colour in the line you get rid of those balls. Basically matching 3 or more balls of the same colour to get rid of them. Don't worry if it still doesn't make sense, just playing the game for a minute will make it clear - that's how I learned:)! Oh and a right click will swap the ball in the frog's mouth with the one stored on his back.As the levels increase, the line of balls at the start of the game is longer and closer to the hole with each level. There are also more coloured balls in play making matching various colours much tougher. There are various power ups within the game, and although I could list them it really is easier just to play the game as you'll soon recognise what every powerup does and how to use it. Collecting up to a certain number of points (forgot right now, maybe around 50,000) earns you another life and the better you play the game the higher your score - collecting coins also helps your score. The faster you reach the level score requirement the easier it is to finish as no more balls appear on screen.This game ends with a final level and although levels do repeat it's still just as fun to play as you get really tough things such as 2 weaving lines of balls, or tunnels of balls that can't be reached.Despite all the confusing text (it's meant to sound confusing) coming from the guardian of the temple I really love this game and can really recommend it to anyone. The game is one of those great desktop games, it's fun to play and can be played whenever you want for as long or short a time as you want. The game let's you save your progress at any time and go back to it so no need to worry about losing a long game.It's one of those great games that allows you to zone out without being tough to do or requiring a lot of thinking. It's actually one of the most fun games I've ever played and I love the music from it too!The game is great for all ages too, kids will pick it up as easily as adults and both will really find it fun. This game really solidified my love of PopCap games and can be replayed again and again.If you do decide to go for this game I can also recommend Zuma's Revenge which is the sequel to this game and I believe has an even better storyline and ending...And also Luxor, which is very similar but you shoot balls from the bottom of the screen instead and follows an Egyptian theme.:)

As you can tell by my title I love this game! It's what they call a marble popper game, the object of which is to eradicate all the marbles before they go into the pit. This is done by hitting three or more of the same coloured marbles in a row. It sounds so easy but its not!The good thing about this game is that anyone can play it from the very young to the very old as long as they don't get frustrated too easily!Anyway, I can spend hours at a time playing this game and as yet I have not found another game that I enjoy as much as this one. I do wish they would create a new Zuma soon!

Dear Sir/Madam,I purchased "Zuma" a few weeks ago and have found it to be addictive, fast fun. The format is innovative and easily set up. I have recommended it to my friends and they are as enthusiastic about it as I am. A trully great game at a very attractive price. Thank you, Ray Jack."Truecats"

Zuma. The game has two variations based on the same idea. Adventure and Gauntlet. The latter being very fast and furious. Now becoming slightly addicted to the games as they are easy to learn and absorbing. You get lots for your money.

Spent much time on this addictive game and quite shocked at time disappearing as I endeavour to get to each new level. At 39 I should know better. Bought this for my brother for Christmas and got him addicted to.

A great game that kept me amused for months. I eventually completed the Space level, but it took a lot of hard work! I still return to the game when I have a few spare minutes. Highly recommended.

Zuma is a nice game. I like the game and it is easy to play and install. If you're a few levels further, thanit will more difficult but i can only say it is fun for young and old people.

This game is infuriating, obsessive and will take over your life if you are not very self-disciplined. I am still stck on level 8 after several weeks and I am still hooked. I love it.

A simple but addictive game.I bought this because my wife was bemoaning the lack of games on our computer - now I can't get access to my computer until she goes to bed :-(

Got this as a Christmas present for the Mrs and she's been engrossed for days! Simple graphics, simple gameplay but totally addictive! Loads of fun for all ages.
