They break up the daily traveling and trials in a realistic manner as players cross plains, ford rivers, and climb mountains. With all these things combined, I was impressed with the amount of history lessons contained in the game. These are basically mini-movies of Captain Jed sharing true stories around the campfire at night. Another great addition is a storytelling time with Captain Jed Freedman. In this edition, players can select various characters, and they'll share historic facts in a storytelling manner, like you're chatting with pioneers as they share their hopes, fears, and adventures. Besides being able to hunt like the original game (with better graphics), players can also fish and forage for food, which is a lot of fun. The game is more realistic than is used to be, as players get more choices on supplies to bring and even different wagon styles. Like real people who traveled the trail, you run into problems like food and water shortages, broken wagon parts, flooded rivers, illness and injuries, stolen supplies, bad weather, getting lost, and more. For those who aren't familiar, this is a game where players fill a wagon with people and supplies and then head West on the historic Oregon Trail. It's also a ton more educational than it used to be as well. I wasn't disappointed, as this edition is even more fun and exciting than the original. I have very fond memories of playing this computer game as a child, so I was excited to take a look at this new and updated edition.
