  1. Guy says:

    You forgot Goiter.
    Also, first, but that doesn’t matter.

  2. Naomi says:

    Or everyone drowns in the river.

  3. Kit says:

    Oh no! Little timmy broke his leg! Then got bitten by a snake!… Then FINALLY he drown. Man, some times it felt like you were traveling on a Friday the 13th.

  4. faetal says:

    They remade that game eventually and it was a bit easier to get to Oregon, However your wagon train was full of whiney bit(hes and if you managed to make it all the way with any cargo (even if it were all blankets and food) the nasally little whimp at Oregon City made a big fuss about “All that cargo”
    I wanted to hit him….

    moreover, I want to find that disk and play a round now >.>

  5. OINK says:

    You forgot the option “become snowbound and eat your companions”.

    • Companion Cube says:

      I must admit. I laughed a long time at this. :)

      • lemonpledge7093 says:

        :( I’ve never gotten that.

        • Zoosnarf says:

          He’s referring to the Donner Party, which was a group of people in the late 1800’s who were heading west and ended up having to stop traveling due to a long blizzard. They had to camp for months and ran out of supplies. So, to stay alive, they had to eat the people who died.

  6. Jane St.Clair says:

    I always got typhoid or tuburculosis, something with a T anyway

  7. andy says:

    peperony and chease

  8. Sprite101 says:

    Totally happened to me every time.

  9. Ayeka says:

    My kids always died from cholera too.

  10. che says:

    the snake!!

  11. Guess Again says:

    Retarded-ass comments – lose five days.

    haha..it’s all about shooing 2000 pounds of buffalo, “…but unfortunately, you could only carry 200 pounds.”
    Also, it’s all about old school Oregon Trail.

  12. ORLY says:

    I remember one time my computer partner and I completed it…of course this was after many classes of repeatedly dying.

  13. chekov says:

    Broken Axle and Cholera. Every Single Time.

  14. Tudor_Rose says:

    The best part about Oregon Trail was always naming the people in your wagon after people in your class, so you could laugh hysterically when they died.

    I used to play the deluxe version in the mid-90s at home, and they always showed the weirdest picture at the top depicting “burying and mourning the dead,” which you can see at 2:37 of the video below:

    • Jane St.Clair says:

      What I loved about that was how quick the mourning was. It’s like, oh well, we’ve still got one kid left, back to the trail!

  15. Dani says:

    Also, scurvy happened a lot.

  16. Becca says:

    I remember playing the newer version in 3rd grade!! I sucked at it…never finished the game. I think they made this game pretty much impossible to defeat haha

  17. Ma.Belle.Fleur says:

    I actually finally beat this damn game after running a simulator on my comp. Granted there was only one person who made it but still.

  18. Jen says:

    You can still play a version on facebook. Not as much fun but better than nothing.

  19. Kate says:

    I don’t think I ever made it – not once. That rafting on the Columbia bit in the video was completely foreign to me.

    It might have something to do with the fact that my bacon got worms so I opted for the flour, which always got weevils. I started taking grandfather clocks every time. At least you could burn it.

  20. lolzalotamus says:

    wheres the, “you got a purty mouth” death sequence?

  21. Nobel Gundam says:

    I recall playing Oregon Trail with my brother when I was younger, but it sounds like a different version than what you guys played… Our party kept dying for no apparent reason “____ got sick and died” over and over again. I think an assassin staked us out or something. It was the kind of ridiculously impossible game where you could never win…

    And then, about 5 years ago, we found out how to use the Universal Game Editor, it’s a hexediting program. We edited our savegame to give us ridiculous amounts of everything. We also found out a way to edit the distance between us and our location to 1… we had 255 teleporting oxen.

    • Simnos says:

      Aww c’mon that’s weak! It’s all about maintaining a greuling pace with no food, one axel wheel and a bad case of dysentry! That’s what America was founded on and that’s still where it’s at!

  22. keelyRAE says:

    hahahaha.

    too true.
