Oregon Trail 1991? edit

This article is about the series of games as a whole and as such not a place for WP:GAMECRUFT in one specific release. Whether the version from 1991 was unpopular or not, I don't know. You're free to research about it and post your findings. –Vipz (talk) 02:53, 14 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Can someone clean up the early game version section? edit

It lists a lot of repeating ports and in general makes it harder to follow the early series.

The TL:DR is, there are effectively 3 main released versions, with minor tweaks between releases. Version 1 is Text Only from the 70s and early 80s. Version 2 is the basic graphics one that's probably the most well known on Apple II and DOS. Version 3 is the 1991 one that got released wih bugfixes as Deluxe and then later as just The Oregon Trail(which would be Game 1 that 2 and 3rd edition were sequels too).

You can still list the different specific releases, but can we simplify it a bit? 2604:3D09:1F80:CA00:D49D:74B8:35AA:3921 (talk) 19:26, 26 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
