To be perfectly honest, I had trouble originally liking this game and I thought the side story was annoying. But the more I played it, the more I saw it's worth. Great sequel and exceedingly addicting.
Rating: - It's really a repeat of Oregon Trail II
It's just Oregon Trail II + a few additional movies that you'll tire of after the first viewing and fishing and gathering options (the same ones you get from Oregon Trail III). It's been a long time since the game has been released though, so you'd probably be advised to get whatever's cheaper. But if you've played Oregon Trail II before, don't expect anything new.

As a former Oregon teacher, I used this game many times over the years. It was so much fun for the students, they didn't realize that they were gaining critical thinking skills and learning about pioneer life.
Now I have given it to my grandchildren and they are enjoying the challenge of getting to the end of the trail. My 10 yr. old granddaughter just called to tell me she was doing great buying supplies until she realized she had no money left to buy oxen to pull the wagon! The fun continues!

I find this to be a great educational game for children and well as older people. It provides a simulation of what life was like in search of land on the west side of the Mississippi River. I recommend this as both an educational game and allows you to plan strategically.

This game definitely brought back memories for me. I remember playing this game in 5th grade! Though I would prefer the original version with the Apple Computer, this game holds up its name. The graphics are a lot better and it's interesting to see the characters talk and give advice. I'm glad I got myself a copy again. All my friends were excited and wanted to play it too!
