    1/2 With RFKjr in charge of HHS. This seems like a good time to remind people that Oregon Trail, the game, was based on the Oregon Trail. Thanks to RFKjr and the regime, we will be reliving the same diseases that the pioneers did. Dysentery, measles, typhoid, small pox, oh my!! #SheShed

    I had my students play "Civilization" this week, and used it to talk about historical simulations (they also played "The Oregon Trail", as a very different take on a historical simulation game). (We played Civ 2 because it was easiest to emulate in a browser and use as a homework assignment.)

    *whispers quietly* The Oregon Trail was a bad game and the only reason anyone has fond memories of it is because you got to play it on the ancient computers in school.

    the Oregon Trail game was supposed to teach the history of THE OREGON TRAIL westward migration route, making history come alive, 'you are there' etc.. I see that was a fail and now it's just an old video game about dysentery 😭 also, they aren't going to use it for alliance name whew

    New on the BBC: The Oregon Trail is a year older than Pong, so old that its basic ideas, like making history the subject of a video game, were big innovations. 50 years later it's one of the most successful games of all time, but hidden controversies may taint its legacy www.bbc.com/future/artic...

    The Oregon Trail was great because it was a cautionary tale wrapped up in a video game. Pretty much every person who played died of dysentery, a snake bite, a broken wagon wheel, rotten food, etc.

    I died on the Oregon Trail (II) on the way to Sacramento and the game won't let me continue on. Was doing well, just shot a bear, but I think one of the fellow wagon members got jealous and was suspicious of a female doctor on the Trail. Poor Mary Lou.

    The main issue is that one needs a substitute for the shooting mechanics, and I don't know what that might be. In Oregon Trail you have to type "wham", "bam", ... fast if you're attacked. This is like a parameter for the dice roll within the game. So, the question is what would "shooting" be in a bikepacking game? #videogame #theoregontrail #bikepacking

    One of the creators of the iconic early videogame The Oregon Trail talks about the unexpected impact the game has had, not having made any money from it, and picks his favorite way to die in the game. "It only happened once every several hundred times, and so people could've played it for months and all of a sudden, 'What? I got bit by a snake and died? This has never happened to me before!'" https://www.cbsnews.com/news/oregon-trail-movie-creator-bill-heinemann/ #TheOregonTrail #videogames
