After trying for 5 months I finally beat this game in 5th grade. By then the Nintendo had been on the market for almost a year. In school we had "Computers" in the library for a hour once a week using the Apple IIe and after school when we weren't riding/arguing about Powell Peralta or Santa Cruz skateboards we were trying to get the plumber to rescue the princess in level 8-4. We usually took a break to watch Robotech. Back then I was still using a TI-99-4/A. we got in '81, when i was 5.
You knew if your friend put your name in that number five slot--you weren't ever going to see Oregon. The worst part was being out of food, shooting three buffalo, but then only being able to carry 100lbs of meat back to the wagon. "Why oh why can' t I take two trips!!"
Ah, Oregon Trail, this was the first game I RAGED QUIT to... I was like, "FUCK THIS SHIT, nobody can win, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, you're COOL(I pointed at you), AND FUCK YOU! FUCK THIS SHIT, I'M OUTTA HERE!
You tipped over the wagon, didnt have food or water and kept plowing ahead knowing these details.. were you honestly surprised about not making it the next thousand miles?
F* your BS, I get what your trying to say with the song.. There is love in the world too, just open your brain to it ;) The conscious mind was created for a reason beyond the infinite of the universe, the conscious is just as real as your sub-conscious instincts. Get it?
Wow flashbacks! Old school computer lessons....just look at these crappy graphics!! sure have come along way....OMG number munchers, thx 4 reminding me ...that game was hard a hell. Figures I failed math for years after that.
Right along with you. Remember the word muncher, eating nouns and verbs, adjectives and such. I'm sitting here in college struggling with math right now!!! Should have played math munchers more. 31 years old in an algebra class. Sad.
When Chuck Norris plays Oregon Trail his family does not die from cholera or dysentery, but rather roundhouse kicks to the face. He also requires no wagon, since he carries the oxen, axels, and buffalo meat on his back. He always makes it to Oregon before you.
You could have tried harder...I mean who couldn't see that you failed on purpose? Well... now that I think about, I haven't played this game since I was 7. I don't know too much about it.
LMAO, yes had both of those in elementary school computer class and some other bizarre war game where you have tanks and planes that have to make it to the other side of the screen.
Yes. Oregon Trail plays the loudest, most obnoxious music ever, but only when you arrive at a landmark and choose to look around. Unless you had the sound completely turned off on your computer (which is probably best).
Jeramie here got just about as far as many players do before bad things happen. That 182 miles between Fort Hall and the Snake River has destroyed many a party.
I just did this the other day as a Carpenter. Got all 5 to Oregon in Fair health, but I took the shortest possible route, and got lucky from some helpful Natives when I ran out of food.
As a farmer, it's very difficult (I've never done it), but doable. Don't plan on getting all 5 there. Aim for 3. Trading is your friend.
lol they all died at the end. it would have been funnier if that river was the one you had to float on to get to oregon and you were 1 mile away and you died
XD typical oregon trail fashion. Me and my friends all went through the same thing when we played this.
Everything goes REALLY well up until you get to around the soda lake area, then all the s**t gets piled on you at once and half your party instantly goes.
I think we only beat this game once out of 50 times :/
That was epic. I forgot how great this game is. Great here having a meaning of perpetual honor, in the sense that as uncool as it is, it's really cool.
"Bad water"? More like toxic waste. Everytime that pops up your health takes an instant drop. Too bad you couldn't just buy fresh water BEFORE going to the cholera infected water.
Wow, I remember this game from the 1st grade (waaay back in that crazy year we call 1998)
I played this for HOURS, I even recall skipping recess just to try (I always failed) to make it to Oregon. A few of us threatened to beat this kid up because he beat it and we didn't. We thought he was cheating...good times. :)
That is why if I go that way, I always take the ferry at the Green River Crossing. I'm not pressing my luck with caulking a wagon on a river that is 20+ feet deep.
Ok i love this game, but does anyone remember a fish game?? youd be a guppie and eat small things, and avoid bein caught? and would become bigger if you werent hooked and ud grow larger and eat bigger fish, but we bein harder to avoid the hook?? HAHA
Yes! I remember and I believe it was called Odell Lake. You could be a variety of fish and risked being eaten by otters and ospreys, but your fish could also eat other fish or algae.
i hated this fucking game no matter how u play it u always end up dying fuck this game
