Big Disappointment
I just received this game and I've tried and tried to get it to run. No luck. It installs with no problem, then when I try to start it, it errors and says it has to shut down the program. I have Win XP and can't find a specific reason for the problems. I'm very disappointed as I have been waiting to play it.
Great Product
I received this game and it was everything I remember when playing Oregon Trail as a child. The game installed on my windows vista with no complications and everything ran good and it has not locked up. I am very happy with this game and pleased with my order.
Great Game - but not for Vista
Love this game - it's the same game as Oregon Trail II, with some goofy animation (that can be skipped) and an added gathering feature that I thought was neat.
It says this program will run on Vista, but it only barely does. After installing, I had to search and download two patches. It runs now, but there are limits - don't open the guidebook or the diary, you won't get it closed again without ctrl+alt+deleting and closing your game. Don't save your game- it will make it so that you can't talk or trade with anyone, and can't visit forts and such along the way. You'll just have to leave the game open, and hope for the best at river crossings - there's no going back if you're not able to save!
I did find that I could open the game twice, and keep one game open to the guidebook, the other as my active game, and flip between the two as needed when a guidebook reference was necessary.
All in all, if you've got Vista, don't expect it to work very well. I wish they'd take Vista off the list of operating systems supported by the software, or at least provide a better patch that fixes all of these glitches!
Not compatible
This product was not compatible with any of my computers and when I attempted to contact the vendor for a return mail authorization#, they never responded to me.
NOT MUCH FUN!
I played this game a few years ago, thinking it would be like the one I played during the late 90's and it wasn't very fun. It's not very similar to the older versions. I think oregon trail 2 or 3 are the best. I don't remember which version I played in school.
