The Oregon Trail is an educational simulation of pioneer life that has been popular in both homes and schools. The game is not easy; it was intended to teach children about the harshness of pioneer life. The game was very successful, and several sequels were made as well as spin-offs using names along the lines of "The (Something) Trail".
