did fording the river EVER work?

Yes, it does work but I never understood what increased the chances of it.

My favorite thing in the game is just to hunt and hunt and hunt until all the game is almost wiped out in an area.

Re: Remember the Oregon Trail?
 

hunting was by far the best.

i would always stock up and see how many buffalo i could drop.

but they were easy to kill, so it was always impressive to gun down a few of the quick rabbits.

and let us not forget the ever elusive and delicious bear.

The best way to get across deep rivers was to hire an indian

I remember playing a game in like 5th grade.... How the west was one + two * three or something like that.

any of you play that game?

Re: Remember the Oregon Trail?
 

Ok damn, I just tried playing this one. This is not the version I remember. I remember playing one on some Macintosh that had 256 colors and 100% mouse interface. This sucks playing with the keyboard.

Yes, that's the one I was originally thought this was - it's called "How the West was one plus three times four" - it's a game that teaches order of operations. I haven't found a working copy yet.
