Fun for the kids and my husband :) [Posted on 2008-05-14]
The kids love playing it at the public library so when I got it for our home they were excited. They love playing it and my husband does too. It teaches them strategy, economics, budgeting and alot more without "gory violence" like in video games.
not what I expected [Posted on 2008-05-15]
This is nothing like the game I played when I was a kid, very disappointed.
Does not work! [Posted on 2008-05-27]
I was hoping to use this program to supplement classroom curriculum. Unfortunately, the CD never has installed correctly.
Fun somewhat educational game [Posted on 2008-05-29]
My 8 year old son, who is in 3rd grade, played it in school. He wanted it so we bought it. We had him read the guide before he could play it. I read it also and I learned a few things also, such as the advantages and disadvantages of various draught animals, the pace of travel so as not to overwork the animals, the type of wagon most suitable for the trail, etc. One of the minuses is that "OT5.exe" file on my copy was old and had a bug in it (the file was dated 2001). It wouldn't run until I found a newer file over the Internet and used it instead.

I purchased 2 of these games to give as prizes. They camed within a timely manner, however the jewel case on one was cracked. Otherwise, I'm pleased with the purchase.
