through cactus laden valleys,
jackrabbit spotted on the ground and vultures fly overhead
cattle graze on that sweet sweet hillside grass
We gather around a campfire and tell stories about the gold claim that never was
lay back on you saddle blankets, pull your hat over you eyes and fall asleep under the moonlight dreaming about nothing except the countryside you grew up on
waking up early in the morning, hooking the oxen up to the wagon and hitting the trail before noon.
Sarah, bless her heart, Sarah comes down with dysentery, and she breaks a leg. A cattle runs free and we spend an entire day looking for it but it can never go back to domesticated life even if we find it.
Sarah passes away from dysentery, bless her heart, and we have to bury her. We erect a gravestone that reads 'Here lies Sarah, she died of dysentery...
lol, that's super diarrhea'
She would have wanted it that way.
But on the upside we can finally up our meal rations to full and live like kings all the way to Oregon.

I remember this game with music at the landmarks, does this not have it as a feature?
Me2019-05-2918 points
I should have done this.
- Open the OTWIN32 folder. Save a copy of OREGON.INI to your desktop just to be safe.
- Open the configuration settings file OREGON.INI. It should open in Notepad.
- There is an arrow symbol at the bottom of the text that should not be there. Just delete it.
- Close and save the file. When you run OREGON32.EXE, it should run with full sound. :)

How do you get this to work on Windows 10? It keeps telling me I'm missing files.

Sluckyboy2017-09-1322 points
I had lots of fun playing this game in middle school. It was scary sometimes...but mostly it made me think about decision making.
Kim2017-05-1215 points
I can get sound to work by running in Windows 95 compatibility mode, but the screen size is small, and no way to maximize. I am using Windows 10, 64bit.
John2017-03-2517 points
Anyone get it running on Windows 10?

My childhood.. What a great game.
dfd2016-07-2817 points
good game
Trail Guide2016-06-1430 points
To make it go full screen, select the 'Run at 640 X 480 screen resolution' option, which is found under the Compatibility tab. Also select 'Disable visual themes' if you want to save your games. My machine is Windows 7 32 bit, and Oregon Trail 1.2 needs to be run in Windows 95 Compatibility Mode. Happy Trails!
Jason2016-05-0317 points
I got it working in Windows 7 64 bit by setting 95 compatibility on the icon. However its a very small window, and ALT TAB doesn't make it go full screen. Are there any other tricks you guys know of to run it full screen?
AniTendobros2016-03-0716 points
Just drag the .exe file for the game to DosBox, and it works fine. If not, right-click on oregon32.exe. Then, click on properties. Select 'Compatability', and select Windows 95. Just open it up.
TrickyDrop2016-02-0720 points

I'm running windows 10 with a dosbox and it still keeps telling me I need windows to run. What am I doing wrong?
Retro1^2015-10-1918 points
For 64bit use DOSBOX. Simply Drag the Oregon Trail exe are dos file right into DOSBOX. Your game will load with no issues. Im using the same method
zeya692015-08-2818 points
lets hope it works for 64bit! Thanks for the download!!! :)
Trail Guide2015-08-2621 points
To get the music and voices to work properly, you need to run oregon32.exe in Windows 95 Compatibility Mode. Happy Trails!
Heather2015-08-1420 points
KT said to delete the arrow in oregon.INI. however, there is not arrow there for me to delete and the sound does not work when playing the game. The music files is just below oregon.ini and oregon32.exe and play whenever I open the files in windows media player. How do i get them to play in the game as well as the character's voices?

KT2013-07-202 points Windows version
This is exactly the same version of Oregon Trail I had on my home computer when I was in elementary school! I'm SO glad I found it. I'm also using Windows 7 and got the sound to work by doing the following:
- Open the OTWIN32 folder. Save a copy of OREGON.INI to your desktop just to be safe.
- Open the configuration settings file OREGON.INI. It should open in Notepad.
- There is an arrow symbol at the bottom of the text that should not be there. Just delete it.
- Close and save the file. When you run OREGON32.EXE, it should run with full sound. :)
Happy trails, kiddos!
Pinky2013-07-04-1 point Windows version
I got this version to run in Windows 7, by running the game as mentioned above, though the music and voices don't play. The rest of the sound effects work just fine though! It's awesome to be able to play this game again!
