If you ever played the classic educational game Oregon Trail, then you’ll find this really funny. From the official description:
In 1864, a family embarks on an impossible journey into the untamed American West. Based on the classic educational computer game, The Oregon Trail by MECC.
I am pretty sure this has been posted either here or on another blog on the network in the past, but I recently rediscovered Oregon Trail. You can find the game here. This is one of those games I can remember playing in the classroom as a kid, but I’m not sure if I had ever finished it. I played through and ended up with 4405 points. I have an urge to try and play it to get to the #1 spot on the scoreboard. It probably wouldn’t be that hard.
