I played Oregon Trail in elementary school (remember the HUGE Apple disks)...
We used to put people that we didn't like in our party just to see them die along the trail of "diptheria" and other diseases

That game rocked! We've always played that game in computer class.

that game was THE game in like 7th grade. we would go on shooting rampages and but waste all of our amo on squirrels. once in a while a bear would come along and then suddenly we were told we had too much food on our wagon.
i was a wimp tho... i never risked crossing the river without the help of the ferry or something. when i didn't use the ferry, someone always died.
it was kinda funny when we would put all the people we didn't like in a wagon and kill them off slowly... yeah... we were demented lil children. :D

We totally used to play Oregon Trail in computer class on those Macs that had the black and green screens... and it was like the image was made of Xs that made little wagons and stuff.

But Oregon Trail was supposed to be like a treat... normally we played Number Crunchers because it was more educational. Oregon Trail was only once a week, I think.
