I remember my teacher showed us this game when I was in elementary school, and I was baffled that history could be enjoyed in videogame format. I might pick this up to play over the holidays for the nostalgia.

Used to love this game. All that time spent waiting for the little wagon to cross the screen. Deciding when the best time was to cross rivers. Good memories.

Considering that the first version of The Oregon Trail came out in 1971, one year before Pong, this could very well be the longest-running franchise in gaming history, and deservedly so! 😁

I'll play it for nostalgia. But I have to say: between pixel art, 3d models, and 2d cartoon sprites, the art direction is everywhere.

I remember playing this as a kid and losing every time I played. Glad that a new generation of kids will be able to enjoy the thrill of watching your whole party slowly die of dysentery. 😁

This was the only game available to us in elementary school in the mid 80's. Some of this hit strong nostalgia vibes.

Okay, THIS is how you do a remake! If I got hopelessly attached to Atari-looking green blobs, I can’t imagine the emotional distraught this game’s gonna put me through. I’m HYPED!
DYSENTERY FOR SMASH!

[GilDice]

A classic.

Teaches kids about how truly unfair life(and game difficulty) can ve

The game our childhood teachers made us play because it was the best way to teach us about the oregon trail. Thank you to all the teachers who made us play this game so we can make the next generation play it. < 3

I'll never understand why they wouldn't make a version of Oregon trail like the Amazon trail game. The way that game was set up was so fun, my sister and I loved it.

[DejaVu]

I remember as a kid, I was able to finish this game just one time during our class. It was epic, going down the river in the wagon on the wooden planks avoiding rocks.

[PonandCon]

I remember playing this in fifth grade, and all day during quarantine. Amazing to see a remake after all these years!

edit: Guys, I was not in fifth grade during quarantine. I really should've worded that better....

[scailliet]

I played this game on a floppy disk at school, in elementary school. And now this releases just in time for my flight to go see the fam, for Thanksgiving. 👍

[willowoodz]

i played this game but in my classroom as a kid, and we did it with papers and stuff. still one of the most epic classes i’ve ever had! games should literally be incorporated into school more often

[InfraSolart]

3 different art styles? That's intriguing by itself, and the fact that it's based on a classic game makes this something worth looking in to.

I never expected *this* to get a remake, ngl

Time to die of dysentery all over again

[KKISCRAZYFUL]

This actually looks like a good reboot. I just really hope they're heart and soul in it

[tinystar]

Having played the original in elementary school, it's awesome to see this was modernized really professionally. It's the same experience and story with modernized visuals that helps to visualize it better.

[cqssjyi]

I'll buy it. I remember playing this on a floppy disc like windows 95 lol, loved it.
