Modern-Day Oregon Trail

Remember playing Oregon Trail on an Apple II in elementary school? God, what a great substitute for actual learning that was (hey, it's important for a 7 year-old to know what dysentery is!). In this Flash game Thule Trail, you head westward not to find a new settlement in Oregon, but to trek to a music festival in California. Your oxen-pulled wagon is an SUV, a station wagon or a hyrbid and instead of cholera or dysentery, you've got to worry about your passengers getting boredom and car sickness. It's a pretty fun and faithful interpretation (I've already played it three times today). Enjoy!

For the love of jeebus, that is AMAZING.
the random crap that happens is golden. "so-and-so gets a gummybear stuck up his nose" made me laugh.....ok i was laughing the entire time, but that stood out for me.
Oh man...this is fantastic. The Gnome cave is my favorite. It truly was a life-changing experience.
"Fruit Bruit has dysentery"
Blast!!! Load load load...
Thanks Panda for finding my new favorite obsession.
I played the game with nothing else running beside the two firefox tabs open and the firefox game popup and my computer which never crashes guess what crashed but it was fun while i got to play with it
