Customer Review(s)
Customer Rating: Summary: Boring Game!!! Comment: I was excited to play this game with my children. We love the Oregon Trail, we can strategize, hunt, fish, gather, pick our party, shop for supplies, change our course, view our course and have continuous updates on progress, health, etc. We can quickly jump around to check all of the above. The graphics are great, and the program always manages to surprise. In short, the Amazon Trail possesses none of these qualities. It is slow, boring, and somewhat confusing. As my daughter puts it - "You are always doing the same thing." Even when you go exploring, it takes a while for the scenery to change. We have played this game for hours and not gotten anywhere. We have explored the guide book, and gotten little useful information. The graphics are blurry, and you have to manually adjust the screen resolution to see what you are doing. The interactive guide is boring, and there is no opportunity for change, strategy, or drama. This game is a waste of money and time - unfortunately I spent full price. DON'T BUY IT!
