![]() ![]() I know that The Oregon Trail has existed in many forms since those days, from board games to card games (“Features 5 New Ways to Die!” ?) to choose-your-own-adventure books (my son has these and loves them) - but for me, nothing beats that old-school (pun intended) pixelated experience. So, most of my fun came from the hunting mini-game. I never actually got to complete the thing - my family would always die of something, or we’d drown trying to cross a river, or something. It was always kind of a rushed affair, because we had to wait until the end of class (usually the last 10–15 minutes) before we were allowed to pick a game and play until the bell rang. To this day, at the ripe old age of 35, I have very clear childhood recollections of playing The Oregon Trail on an Apple II machine in our elementary school’s computer lab.
