As a covered wagon party of pioneers, you head out west from Independence, Missouri to the Willamette River and valley in Oregon. You first must stock up on provisions, and then, while traveling, make decisions such as when to rest, how much food to eat, etc. The Oregon Trail incorporates simulation elements and planning ahead, along with discovery and adventure, as well as mini-game-like activities (hunting and floating down the Dalles River).

Subject: First Computer Game I first started playing this way back in middle school 1982, on a Tandy TRS-80 computer loaded with a 5.25" floppy disk. It is a real treat to play this today 38 years later. It is just as fun today as it was then. Especially when one thinks how far computers have come since then. - August 25, 2020First Computer Game

Reviewer: dudewhattheheck? - favorite favorite favorite favorite - July 30, 2020

Subject: Great game indeed. For how simple it is, its extraordinarily fun. Buying different combinations of items and trying to squeak it out to Willamette, figuring out what pace and what amount of rations would be good for the situation, thinking of a strategy that'll get you to the end. Or, trying your hand at speed running it. Figuring out the perfect route that will get you to the end as fast as possible. For how minimalistic and basic it is, it has a ton of possibilities and potential for fun. But the luck aspect of it is complete bullshit. You could be crushing it and oh look at that lose ten days, you just recover from the ten days and well shit the wagon is on fire. Whats that? The thief equivalent of James motherfucking Bond just stole all of your ox, sucks to suck. Have to hope there is someone willing to trade something reasonable for an ox. You try to trade and either no one wants to or they are asking for something like 550 pounds of food for a single fucking wagon wheel. Still pretty fun though. - July 30, 2020Great game indeed.

Subject: Sorry I got mad about being second place. Sorry about that. It's a good game though. I'd recommend investing in bullets and hunting often. When hunting, only shoot deer, bears, and bison, and only when you know you will hit (don't waste bullets). Once you've shot 2 deer/ 1 bear/ 1 bison, don't shoot. You can only get 100 pounds of meat per hunt. Also, hunting and attempting to trade, take 1 day. Have a great day! - June 19, 2020Sorry

He has such great insight about the trail and the hazards. He talks about the use of the mules and that the wagons were only 36 square feet. I really have an appreciation for those who crossed the trail to build a better life and a better America.



I hope the makers of this game partner with one of the large game makers to bring this game into today's technology and a great teaching tool. - April 24, 2020You had to be crazy and hopeful for a better future.

Subject: Love it! I love this game, especially considering the fact that I, someone growing up in the digital age, can sit through a game this old and not get bored just seems like a miracle to me. This game is thoroughly exciting because it has every element of fun that kids these days want to see, such as getting to name and semi-create their own characters, making decisions, such as when to buy food or new wagon wheels, or new oxen because your oxen either ran away or got stolen. It also forces you to think about the decisions you make first. For example, becoming a carpenter means that you are more capable of fixing things than say a doctor, who is just as important because they can heal people. All in all, I was thoroughly impressed by this game! - September 30, 2019Love it!

Subject: I love this game! So I've been seen a lot of people writing, "I couldn't get the game to work!" Immediately assuming that the game is terrible and they leave a bad review and leave. All you really have to do is just reload the page a couple times and it should work fine. I've been playing this game every day for the past week and it works perfectly fine for me every time.



This game was made in 1990, and I'm very surprised how popular and how much the game has grown. I love this game so much and its very historically accurate. The Oregon Trail is a very fun game and it works fine.



"Its quality is terrible!"

Not all games that are great have good quality. Stop expecting every game in 2018 to be amazing that are popular.



"this game is trash !1!1! nuuhhhh"

Every one has their opinions about every game. If you're a history freak like I am, this game is very educational and fun.



"I pressed the mute button and it froze. Had to restart and lost data. Would be helpful if there was a save button."

Yes, the game's volume is broken. Instead of trying to mute the game, just turn off your volume all together. A save button is not exactly needed because there's no save button on life, right?



"there aren't even any in-app-purchases!"

... First off, this game isn't exactly for IOS or Andriod, meaning that this game is for chromebook/laptop/computer...

Why would a game like this have in-app-purchases anyway?



"i was really excited to play this game but it wont load past adding the names."

For those of you who can't get past the part after entering names, if you pressed the shift button, you are stuck in caps lock. Pressing numbers will make the game think you're entering the numbers with the shift buttons. If you do not press the shift button and enter your names in lowercase, the game runs fine.



Also shift works for me all the time and I'm on a school-issued chromebook so it works fine for me on chromebooks. I hope this helped you! :D - September 19, 2018I love this game!

Subject: Clunky controls. Would prefer a download version. It was fun, but it has a few issues. The first I noticed was that it wouldn't accept numerical input from the keyboard numpad, which was weird. The second was that, when hunting, it would occasionally "stick" on shooting. That is to say, it thinks the spacebar remains pressed down when it isn't, and fires continuously. That was really annoying, considering how important resources are to this game.



The most annoying part though was that when I went to leave this review, I didn't realize that unlike most sites it opens a new page - it doesn't have a box in the bottom hat expands, nor does a click open a new tab. No, it opened a new page. Why was this a problem? Well, I wasn't done playing! I just hit that stuck spacebar bug and wanted to mention it, but when I clicked back the entire game started over.



If this game was downloaded I could have saved the state of the dosbox or something to effectively save my game, but now I have to start over.



On the plus side, even though full screen mode disables the mouse, pressing alt-tab brings it back so I can use my other monitors while I play, although if I mute the audio to listen to music the music of a new place still plays.



I realize that these negatives are about user interface, rather than the functional elements of the game, but user interface is a big part of the player experience. - June 27, 2018Clunky controls. Would prefer a download version.

It's about 5 people who went across the Oregon trail and you have choices in the game whether to hunt, to trade, you can talk to people. " I said " Cool, is there any way I could try that game" She said sure. Ever sense she let me try that game 4 years ago I have fell in love with it. I play it every chance I have. I come home from school make sure no one is on the computer look up archive.org and start playing this game. I really love this game.

I see a lot of people say they can't walk while hunting but all you need to do is use the Enter key (Use the one on your number pad on your keyboard if the other doesn't work) Hit once to start walking and once to stop, using the directional keys to navigate. It actually does say that in the pre-hunting screen where it tells you which arrows to use, at the top of the list, but it can be easy to skim over without actually reading.

Subject: Excellent randomized game I heard about this game about three years ago. Among the reviews I read the words challenging, hard, merciless, and a must-play classic (among others) were the most popular words to describe this masterpiece so I finally decided to give it a try.



I played for an hour without too many issues, so I could not understand the challenging, merciless and hard part that many people talk about, you just have to heed the advices of the npc that talk to you and be a good hunter (by the way, I did not pay much attention to the first review in the list, kzm007 I think, who accurately said that you could move while hunting, as a result I ended up finding about it halfway through the game.



Finally in my last 50 miles to reach my final destination an ox got injured, three were stolen, one of my companions got his arm broken, one was bitten by a snake and another suffered from dysentery. - January 5, 2016Excellent randomized game

A FEW TIPS:

===

***HOW TO SAVE***

When in the game window, hit the Esc key on your keyboard, and the game will ask you if you want to save. Then, when you resume the game, even opening and closing the webpage, it will offer to let you played your saved game. No more lost progress due to freezing!



You're welcome :)

===

DON'T LEAVE THE BROWSER UNTIL YOUR GAME IS OVER. IT *MAY* RESET YOUR CONNECTION, FORCING YOU TO RESTART THE JOURNEY! This is irrelevant if you make sure to save progress before exiting.

===

The game will also freeze itself if you shift in and out of fullscreen, or leave the page to do other tasks. You'll have to refresh the page.

===

When you're walking around as a hunter and bump into an obstacle, you stop - there is a small invisible square around the object, where it's been placed into the game; this is noticeable if you have a laptop - tilt your screen back a little, you'll see it very faintly against the black.

===



Other than these quirks (understandable with outmoded technologies), this is a fun experience, and much better know that I know how to save progress - no more all-night journeys for me.



Running ChromeOS on Acer Chromebook. This game also plays nicely hooked to an HDTV via HDMI.



It's 25 years old (a year younger than me), people - stop complaining about in-game purchases. The only purchases you get are with in-game money or trading goods. Apps didn't come about until mobile devices were created. Be grateful it's not a freemium game; that business model only serves the profits of the companies - enjoy this free of charge. - December 18, 2015An excellent return to the past

Subject: The Shift Button Works as a Caps Lock For those of you who can't get past the part after entering names, if you pressed the shift button, you are stuck in caps lock. Pressing numbers will make the game think you're entering the numbers with the shift buttons. If you do not press the shift button and enter your names in lowercase, the game runs fine.



However, I would like to know if there's a way to disable shift/caps lock, for those who want to use capital letters when naming. At least maybe offer a tutorial as to how MS-DOS works for newbies like me. VerifyinTr1gIDs -- September 9, 2015The Shift Button Works as a Caps Lock

Subject: Fun! What a great game. I never heard of it but had a lot of fun right up until I hit that last rock after the last marker. :(

Those with probs need to try Google Chrome. I found that the numbers switch from the top to the keypad at the start of the game (when it asks the month) and that if you start another game they reverse (top keys vs keypad). Not very hard to figure out. And all the directions you need are plainly written. Just read them. On the keypad, when hunting, the 7,9,1,3 buttons give you diagonal aiming and movement. Bullets seem the least critical of all supplies, btw, but get about 300 and you'll be fine. Unless you're a really lousy shot! ENJOY and good luck getting it to load.

Subject: Can't Hunt? For those of you below who can't find the hunt option, it appears when you hit the 'enter' key WHILE TRAVELING on the trail. Each hunt costs one day. The travel screen gives you clues about good hunt locales. Green grass is good. Yellow grass, bad water and poor graze areas are bad.



You can only carry 100 pounds of food back to your wagon per hunt so don't waste bullets for overkill (which also makes further hunts in the area more difficult). A deer has around 75 pounds of food. Smaller game like birds and squirrels are worth less and are harder to kill thus wasting bullets unless you are a crack shot.



Sadly, the biggest target and easiest kill is a buffalo. It's worth around 900 pounds of food so you must leave 800 pounds rotting in the sun. It's quite a guilt trip since several people you talk to lament all the buffalo killing going on. Heh, another history lesson from OT I suppose.

Subject: Nostalgia at it's finest! I haven't had any trouble running the game. Took me a while to figure out < and > let you turn diagonal in hunting mode - not the number pad. Also, hitting enter makes your little guy walk so you can get to a better vantage point. For those who couldn't figure out how to hunt, just hit Enter at any point on the trail and it's option 8. I also thought the game was frozen, but I had somehow clicked off the screen - somewhere else on the page. When I clicked the game screen, there was a little blue border around it and I was back in the game! Another time I thought it froze, but for some unknown reason, all of a sudden my number pad worked but my regular keyboard numbers weren't registering any more. So I just started using the number pad. (This didn't work the first time it happened, but I think number lock was off.)

Great game, exactly like it was in the computer labs at school! I have shamelessly wasted the better part of a day off! :D - January 10, 2015Nostalgia at it's finest!

Subject: Awesome! This was my first time ever playing this game, and it was great but challenging at the same time. Definitely one of the classics that people still mention to this day. My first time through all of my party members were alive....until I floated down the river. No issue playing using Firefox 33.0. My only complaint was that I couldn't get the number-pad to work for navigating through different options. - January 9, 2015Awesome!
