I find this game much harder than Zuma's Revenge. In Zuma's Revenge, I was able to finish the main quest, but I have not been able to pass level 12-2 in this game. If you lose all your lives you have to start again at 12-1. Additionally, I can't get the game to play in full-screen mode, making it harder to maintain accuracy. It is incredibly challenging and stressful, so I am not sure if I will continue playing this game, I will stick to playing Zuma's Revenge instead. I have already spent 18.2hrs trying Zuma Deluxe, just wasting my time

I went to replay this as an adult yesterday (British version). I have not played this game in several years. I have not played the British version before. The Cluefinders 3rd Grade remains a stable favourite of mine to this day. The voices are quite less creepy than the American version.

I was never a smart kid, so I never was able to complete this as a 3rd grader, 4th grader.. OK UNTIL I WAS PROBABLY A TEENAGER OR ADULT.
I always preferred the Monkey Kingdom as the Goo Lagoon creeped me out and just was not my cup of tea.

How I found the games:
{GOO LAGOON}
TWIN SPIDERS was so horrifying to me as a child. I would always avoid this game as much as possible because it terrified me. Seeing it again yesterday, I still feel uncomfortable with it. Game play is still hard for me...
Crabalock attack: I loved this one. I think because I have always preferred word games. I don't recall needing help for this.
Attack-nids: I found this one far too hard. When I went through and played it yesterday, I STILL COULDN'T SEE THE DIFFERENCE.
Moths and Fleas. GROSS. I never liked this as a kid and find it hard it hard to see what they want me to do to this day.
Worms Day Out: Mum would help me with this one. It's cute but kinda icky to pick up the worms. I found it hard playing it yesterday.
River of the Goo Creature: always needed mum's help. I struggled a bit yesterday playing this, even on easy level. (I believe I have dyscalculia)
Goo Falls: I rememebr struggling for years with this but then mastering it maybe in my teen years. Playing it yesterday, I lost several beettle bags. The patterns are hard for me to see.

{Monkey Kingdom}
Address Stones. Never some help on easy level as a kid. As an adult I had to cheat on hard level. I HATE MATHS
The Queen's Calendar: so-so for me as a kid but I always needed help with this entire PC game. On hard level I did ok yesterday.
The Pit and the Vines: always needed help. I cheated yesterday.
Monument: Yeah, always needed help with this too. I couldn't be botehred reading what it said so picked up anything.
Treausre Chest: far to hard for me as a child. I played the British version yesterday, so money was different. I picked up anything.
Chasm of snakes: another maths one, so I needed help with this too. I picked up anything yesterday.
The Rings of Fire: This one drove me nuts but for some reason I actually enjoyed it, despite needing help. I cheated yesterday as I can't do maths.

{jungle canopy}
Where are you: I am not good with geography so I always needed help. I was able to do ok with it yesterday, but in the past as an adult I found it difficult.
Birds on vacation: this game is very nostalgic to me and my mum. We LOVED IT because of the cute birds. I always needed help, didn't find it hard on hard yesterday.

{lost city}
The Chamber of Order: This game was fun for me as a kid. I never found it too hard on easy level. As an adult on hard it was OK but I struggled a bit.
The Chamber of Vision: I KIND OF liked this as a kid but you have to have a keen eye to see the frames and some of the order frames don't make sense. I tried it yesterday with a frog's life cycle and wasn't sure why one frame went before another. I never liked this one.
The Chamber of Structure:. I HATED THIS AS A KID and still do to this day. On hard level I struggled yesterday and had to put it back on easy.
The Chamber of Illusion: found this one ok as a child on easy, still needed help but it was kinda fun. I liked how it was a lava lamp. I played on hard yesterday and despite getting one or two wrong, it was ok to play
The Chamber of Knowledge: This game annoyed me as a kid, I'd avoid it. I am sure it had more tiles to arrange, not just four??? I played it yesterday on hard and I made mistakes. SHows how dumb I am right?
Bottomless Pits of Doom: The final game. I always needed extensive help with this. The first 2 levels are ok to pass, but after that were too difficult for me. I tried it yesterday and it seems I haven't changed. The red andgold levels were too hard for me. I had to keep getting snagnets. I thought I'd not be able to complete the gold stage. It wasn't that I didn't understand the gameplay, it was how to place them right. I wasn't sure how to store the pieces when the storage bay was filled up.

Overall a VERY nostalgic game for me. Me and mum INTO MY ADULTHOOD would make jokes about the snagnets and sneezeberries. You have to be a very bright child to be able to play this on your own. Sadly, I was never that kind of child.

Around 2012, I became involved in this game and actually invested money in it. It was enjoyable at the time, but ultimately, it proved to be a significant waste of money and also had incidents of bullying. The game can easily become addictive due to its visually appealing nature, similar to real-life shopping. Spending money on virtual fashions may seem frivolous, however, it was the only way to acquire clothing as the free options were either hard to obtain or uninteresting. Years later, when I logged back in, I discovered that a significant portion of the items I had purchased had been inexplicably removed. I let some years go by and recently logged in out of curiosity, only to discover that they have transformed it from a website to more of an app. I regret wasting my money and time in this
