Wasted Money
I got this for a discount and remember with fondness all the version of Oregon Trail from the text based versions on an Apple II on up to the last version that I had was a Win3.1 version with Adlib music and more history. This version, you don't select your starting type: which was banker, farmer, or carpenter. Each one of those choices lead to different prices to start out with and different ending scores. Instead here you get your choice of Adventurer, Farmer, Missonary. Oh and they present you with 4 choices and all of them could be the same background with no way to reset it unless you back out and try the RNG again. There appears to be no net difference between the backgrounds except for some mini-game skills that these backgrounds bring to the game. With the fun of not knowing what these extra skills are worth until you bring them. Oh you have a female missionary, guess what she is your best hunter out of all three of the adventurers you brought. Want to know who is the best person to fix your wagon? That banker you were forced to chose out of 4 choices starting out. Some of these choices and the skill selections make no sense. They added things like click for animals along the trail for extra experience points. I guess its to stay under the edutainment side, but really feels like an attempt to pad this game out. The starting out you can select wagon size, and then have a mini-game of trying to pack things away in the wagon. For anyone who has played Diablo, the wagon inventory looks like Diablo inventory. A bunch of boxes for stuff and things like a wagon wheel may take up a 2x4 set up boxes while a harmonica will take up a 1x1 box. They do offer up starting out kits, but interestingly enough none of the kits include spare parts for the wagon like the OG made you make a choice of supplies. This is a waste of money, ahistorical junk.
