The Oregon Trail Thread

I always wussed out and decided to be a banker. Those $2000 always made it easy to coast to the Pacific without much incident.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Heck, if I have some free time tonight I may run though this game again.

I also remember there being more than one (really cool) remake of this game, with better graphics and sound, but I don't know if it was cross-platform or not.

The game's been in some form of rotation from 1980-1999?, it's been remade several times to look and play better. Maybe other developers should release popular games every once and a while, even if it only lets it run on a newer OS.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
