I just downloaded Oregon Trail 5 because of nostalgia, I was fully prepared to lose everything I owned immediately and for everybody to die of dysentery and/or cholera; but no. Nobody in my party died, I only had a few river fording mishaps, and only one person got dysentery... coincidentally, that same person also sprained their ankle every time we had to go up or down a hill, by the end I was contemplating whether or not I should just try and kill them off somehow.
When I look back on the many hours I spent playing that game in my childhood, I remember being constantly wiped out by infectious diseases and horrible water related disasters -- what the hell happened?!
Instead of being utterly destroyed, I actually made it to Oregon City and made into the top 3 in the high scores list!
Was I really that inept as a child?
Anyways, share any relevant experiences if you like.
