Oregon Trail

So a few months back I was feeling a bit nostalgic and I wanted to play me some good ol' Oregon Trail. Unfortunately I could not find the disc for the game so I decided to check around the internet to see if I could play it online. What I came across was a home made flash game version of the classic. I can't even begin to describe to you how awesome this game was. To start, I picked my team of travelers, occupation, and supplies. Then, the amusing journey began.


Off I go, into the wilderness, with my wagon train of a million oxen.


...again.
Well that was a sudden, dramatic, and tragic turn of events.

 Awww man! Well, I suppose everything, after witnessing a buffalo stampede, would be pretty dull.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Well that's nothing new.


That's Ron for you, sleeping the day away inside the wagon while we work our butts off.

Well I'm bored...lets go kill something.


Awww, what a peaceful deer.


Look mommy, that birdie is sleeping.




I'm sorry my friend, you have just walked into the wrong clearing. I really thought you would notice all the corpses of your comrades. 

Okay, back to the trail.

I blame Ron.

Ron.

Ron.


Not Ron.

Really, Ron? REALLY?!

Ron.


Please tell me that the spare was Ron.

Perfect time to do some more murde...I mean hunting.


Right in the head.


Ron ain't gonna get a lick o' you. 

One hunting trip per day? Pssssssh...I go for two...or three.


Okay...is anyone else a little freaked out by the fact that the midget deer in the corner is the same size as that gigantic blue bird?


One buffalo...


Two buffalo.


They know I killed their brethren.


I blame the prairie chickens.


YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! I mean...how precious that he should die in the same way as his dear loved one.


Oh hey, we're actually getting somewhere.


Well that's just great, even after death Ron is causing us trouble. 


How on earth did I do that without supplies?


That's right, I built a brand new wheel out of dry twigs and pixie dust.


And I made a spare axle out of wood chips and oxen dung.


Just used a bit more dung to make it stick.


What a beautiful desert...


Awww shoot...we're all going to die. I don't have a sailing license.

ICEBERG! Oh wait...those are boulders.


Well that was a miracle.


Joy. Well I'm hungry.


Ooops...killed too many.


GHA! Giant deer! Kill it!


How rude of giant deer to sit on somewhat large deer's face.


AHHHHHHHH! The ghost of one of the rabbits is haunting me. That's my cue to never hunt ever again.



Well yeah, we were lost for three whole days.


Wooohooo! Old faithful. No time to stick around and watch it erupt though.


Another one? Sweet, twice the good luck.


...there are no words.


Here,Ron, hold these two cracked boards together.


My lucky squirrels are no match for the bad luck of Ronald Weasley. 


Not again!


Huh...our doctor is obviously a quack.

No dry twigs or pixie dust to be found...killed a buffalo just for the ribs.


...RON?!?!?!?!


Jokes on him, he took the oxen with dysentery. 


Okay, time to throw the doctor into a buffalo stampede...although he'd probably just survive it and come back muddied and disgruntled. 


...

Obviously not due to the doctor.


Unfortunately the only thing in the wagon was rope and a gag but that was quite valuable for tying up Ron and the quack doctor.


Hey look a cabin! Maybe they'll give us directions. I've kind of forgotten where I'm going.


Maybe they'll trade me some food for Ron. Then again...Ron looks pretty tasty.


Of all the things to die of...I think Hermione was better off with us thinking she'd died in an awesome stampede.

Well...I give up.



This...THIS IS WHAT WE DID ALL THIS TRAVELING FOR?! This town is very poorly built and all the houses are baby poop green.


9 buffalo murdered...at least there's that.
