Zuma Deluxe Download Issue

Salut.

Can you give us the link where you download the full version of Zuma Deluxe?

I found it here, for your information: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3330/Zuma_Deluxe/?l=english

or here: http://www.zylom.com/en/games-download/bubble/bubbleshooter/zuma/

As a wise man said to me: "In France, you can do anything....
You just have to not get caught."

Hello Little Boy!

I am downloading it from the game shortcut on my PC desktop. Apparently, the link goes to the Popcap site (when I click on 'download', the window briefly shows 'accessing the Popcap website' before telling me that access to the site is not possible).

Zylom: no longer possible since 2016.

However, on the other link provided, it seems to work. I probably need to uninstall my trial version first... I'll keep you posted! ;>

You need to register. OK, we’ll register.
We pay.
And AFTER, the site tells me that their software STEAM (?????) is essential to use the purchased game.
Why? I want to play Zuma on my PC, not online!
And when we google 'Steam reviews', we come across this, among others:
https://www.60millions-mag.com/forum/communication-internet/steam-une-plateforme-aux-pratiques-douteuses-t6591.html
And it’s too late because I’ve already paid...

I’d also like to know why CCM provides a download link that doesn’t work?

Sorry, Little Boy - thank you for your help, but the world of online games is filled with unpleasant mysteries!

I canceled my purchase and requested a refund.

I don't panic in front of the unknown, no. But I do in front of a potential computer problem, yes. I've never had issues with my computers thanks to this strategy.
When I bought Zuma on PopCap in 2012, the game was also digital, and it worked very well without Steam.

;-D Zuma is awesome! Did you download it on Steam?
Apparently, Popcap no longer distributes the game directly. See link:

Zuma is the last one at the bottom right, and there is no link.
I had purchased and downloaded it on Popcap (before EA) but I've just changed computers (the other one died of old age) and I can't reactivate it with my code, despite chatting with support who told me nonsense... I tried to re-register, but the site rejected all my usernames, even the most esoteric ones! That's why I downloaded the shareware here. Since then, I've been trying to find out more online to get to the bottom of this, but I still haven't found anything. It's making me quite paranoid!
There is also the possibility to download it from Clubic, but with the usual lack of transparency, I don't know if Clubic goes through Steam or not. Nor if it's possible to download this amazing game without Steam!
Steam may not be the devil, but I do not want to download, in addition to the games I want to play, software that I don't need. This makes me think that I need to solve my hard drive problem... I deleted a partition but it ended up unallocated, not joined to my main drive, which is a bit tight (118 GB is a bit short for a C drive!). From what I understand, I need to download easus... Another download!!!!!!
Well, I'm done sharing my life with you! Have a good day.
