## Gameplay

[edit]

Oregon Trail is a game in which pioneers move to the American West in covered wagons along the Oregon Trail.[1]

## Reception

[edit]

David Ladyman reviewed Oregon Trail in The Space Gamer No. 47.[1] Ladyman commented that "Oregon Trail can't really be cited for historical accuracy because you don't know what parts are accurate and what have been dramatized. In sum, a nice try, but I can't think of a good reason to buy the game."[1]
