This is one of the only games that my family has all enjoyed playing on the computer. It is a very simple concept compared to today's computer games, but it has some historical facts in it, and it can be completed in a short amount of time. We did not like to newer versions of the game, only this one.

I bought this for my son because he had played it while at school & her really liked it. I like it because it is not shoot 'em up like most video games but instead you have to really think to get through to the end alive! On our version there is no fishing which my son does miss but still enjoys the game. Also, the game does not fill our entire monitor but you can still see it fine.

I bought the Oregon Trail for my children 25 years ago. They wore it out! I purchased the Oregon Trail II so my grandchildren could enjoy a good game and even learn a little history without realizing it. So many games today are full of violence etc, that it's nice to have a game you can actually encourage your children-grandchildren-to play. The game is not difficult to learn. It has action, education, and fun to play. Who could ask for more!!!

I bought this game for my daughter thinking that she would enjoy playing it as much as I did when I was younger-and I was right! It's nice to let my daughter use the computer and know that she is doing something worthwhile rather than wasting her time! I will say that I happen to like the original version better :)But this one is great too!

I first got this game was I a kid. I loved it then and I still love it now. Perfect for family home evenings, lessons on LDS Church History, family histroy lessons, and for kids learning about the Oregon Trail or life in the mid 1800's. And at the price its being offered, its a steal. Even now as an adult, I still find the game educational and entertaining. And if your a LDS parent who can't afford a Church History vacation, take it in your living room with all your kids by playing this game. The first edition was cool in a 16 bit mode but the second edition is more colorful, realistic and educational. Happy hunting!

I remember playing this game in the fourth grade, and I loved it. I bought it recently and it still plays well. I can't say enough good things about it.

I think it is very fun and very educational.I like the hunting the most.
