The Oregon Trail’s description on Steam reads: The Oregon Trail will feature 15 playable journeys and seven quests based on historical events. Players will have a wide range of experiences. They will manage inventory, keep tabs on members of their party, and learn about animals. On Steam, the minimum PC specs are: Windows 10 OS, 8 GB RAM, 1500 MB storage, and NVIDIA Geforce GTX 660. The Oregon Trail has a history that stretches as far back as 1971 when three student teachers at a middle school Don Rawitsch, Bill Heinemann, and Paul Dillenberger conceived it for students’ use. Following Rawitsch’s employment by an educational software firm, the game gained ground and found widespread usage in schools across the United States. In 2009, Gameloft published the first mobile version of The Oregon Trail to great reception and this led to the creation of sequels. The Oregon Trail follows a wagon leader as they lead a group of settlers across America in 1848 via the Oregon Trail. The educational strategy video game is iconic, especially among Americans who attended elementary school from the mid-1980s to the mid-2000s. It’s a cultural phenomenon and is still relevant several decades after its creation. You can check out The Oregon Trail and other impressive iOS games on the Apple Arcade.
