My oxen drowned while I tried to ford the river.

I grew up dying from typhoid and watching my other fellow wagon mates dying from other various diseases. This was a childhood classic. But, the newer version is so different from what I remember. It's still fun, but I prefer the "old school" version of this game.

Nothing like the original

2007-02-27
Frankly, this game was nothing like the original played on the Apple II. There are a lot of people who say they grew up playing The Oregon Trail, bought this for the nostalgia, and loved it, but I don't agree at all. Those people were either playing a different version or optimists.
The CD Rom I got came with no instructions so it was difficult to navigate the game. I didn't know how to get in and out of the general stores or what the point was of exploring the forts. I think some of the new features and games made it extremely tedious. I suppose a longer playing time is good and makes the game worth the money, but I just couldn't get over the disappointment of it not being enough like the original.

My niece loves it.

I had to give the game to my niece, because it wouldn't load on my computer. The cover says it will work on XP, but it doesn't. I tried it on both my laptop and my desktop, which runs XP. But it does work on Win 98.

Fun blast from the past

I loved playing this years ago, and it was still really entertaining now. It works really smoothly on my powerbook!

Oregon Trail 5th Edition PC game

2008-06-13
The game is really fun! My fiance and I take turns trying to beat each other's high scores. This was my favorite game as a kid so my fiance bought it for me for Mother's Day. (We have a 2 yr old son) You learn a lot from this game and it's fun to put your friend's names on and pretend to go on adventures. Also you get to shoot animals and not feel guilty about it.

why can't we talk to a real person

2008-05-02
this game will not work and when you call the company you can't talk to a real person.and they sent me an email to tell me what to do but it did not work

End of my search

I first played this game years ago and loved it. Lost my game and have been searching for a replacement ever since. I was very happy to find Oregon Trail, and even happier with the price. My game was delivered qucikly and in good shape. I recommend Amazon to anyone.

Just what I was looking for

2007-09-01
Growing up my husband and I played this game in school and we were wondering if it was still out there, and I found it for a GREAT deal on Amazon! It's exactly what I wanted, and even better now 13 years later. It was shipped very quickly and just as described. As a first time user to Amazon I am very pleased.
