The Oregon Trail for apple II computers

Love the sound of vintage integrated keyboards... wow

[@amyknowlesf]

The fact you said vintage makes me feel old as fuck lol

[@jo54763]

@@amyknowlesf Everything I grew up with is "retro" or older now so I reckon I'll feel what you're feeling real soon! :P

[@AckzaTV]

are they mechanical keyboards peoppe buy now?

[@amyknowlesf]

@@jo54763 I played this in elementary school. I love it!

[@Ladykyra101]

Actually, love and prefer these keyboards. Always gave me a "typewriter feel." I like getting the haptic-like feedback from the keys. Amazon and eBay actually sell these keyboards. I brought one called, Key-U-Can-See (for my aging eyes) and it gives that same "old school vibe." Feels like I'm really chugging away while at work. Of course, the noise can annoy others. ⌨️🤫🤭

I loved playing this in elementary school. It feels like a lifetime ago.

[@dubya724]

Man, tell me about it. Hunting and trying to keep everyone from dying held my attention for some time until age of empire came out. 😂😂

[@RJmakes69]

I had this. I was there. 1987 I was 8. Thank you for these videos 😢

[@respectdawildo_danjones508]

This just made me realize my age and made me quite sad 😂 Damn… this was a favorite in the late 90’s

[@aliceeliot6389]

In the late 90s? You have no right to talk about age

[@YouTube_still_sucks]

By the late '90's we were playing Quake 2 on the internet.

[@rdz-1776]

07 kid and i still "grew up" playin this lol😂

[@justinreadingbooks]

Yes. Time machine back to school in the 80's. Oregon Trail, Print Shop, Bank Street Writer

[@freespeech469]

I absolutely loved this game in school. It was pretty much the only game we had. Graduated 99

[@LogicallyInsane8]

HOLY SH!T does this bring me back to elementary school. I swear we 80s babies are the lucky ones to be born in such a great era.😂

[@danielrollins4315]

I miss the good old days.😞

[@RetroGamingBlog]

Ah. Just the sound of the drive gives me the feels.

[@sligacheese6470]

I’m doing good with my small collection of 1995/2000 I’m balls deep in nostalgia everyday 💎❤️💎❤️

[@LiamLG_Official]

This was done on an Apple //e Enhanced, according to the small label that says “65C02” on the power indicator.

[@LiamLG_Official]

If it was an Apple //e Platinum, an apple logo would not be on the case. Instead, black text imprinted on the case that reads “Apple IIe” would be there.

[@holleysdotcom]

I am so envious! Despite all of the fun and fancy games we have today, this is still one of my favorites. I miss it so much!

[@p0ison_0ak33]

If your childhood didn't consist of Oregon trail. You missed out.. they can try to replicate us with our clothes but IDK anyone that has a working, old-school Macintosh computer.. and kids nowadays would be so underwhelmed and be like, why the hell did you like this game? this is lame😂💯✌️

[@HikingTheSonora]

you can play it online for free just by google searching it

[@andreamenter4028]

I remember thinking as a kid,” I’ll play this later when I get home! It’s so fun. “ I never played it when I got home.

[@OksanaTenman-sq2qj]

Why? Sorry if I don't understand

[@yannc1975]

Love your videos !! And the music

[@JRK663]

If you were my teacher for high school I would love to visit a classroom like yours

[@thomasjones4306]

Man, this tech in school and reading rainbow the show was some things in life I enjoyed growing up on. Miss the simple times…

[@eirikheggelund]

Ah, this brings back memories!

[@lemonhead162]

I remember these well! I used to write my friends notes on this type of computer during home room!

[@TraumaER]

Bet if IBM and Apple used all black or gray cases back in the day, their stuff today would still look new. Old PC housing yellowed like crazy.

[@MasterKirbyYT]

One of favs when I was little kid, this Madeline, one must fall, and DUKE NUKEM were my favs on the Dell

[@raymondjohnson9728]

😄 I remember Oregon trail 😂 brings back so many memories 😢

[@WizardClipAudio]

❤ I mean, I always liked Oregon trail, however, I can hardly fathom why indeed it was the killer app that got ingrained so popularly, except that maybe because we rarely had enough time sufficient to finish the game in the time allotted to being in the computer lab, it’s ending left much mystery to the imagination. I can only count on one hand how many times I or anyone else successfully made it to the end, before being lined up to go back to regular classroom work. I think I enjoyed Spellevator, more because of it’s platform of elements, and spelling was really easy for me to return to the platform of elements.

[@Bayers2020]

So glad I followed this channel :)

[@Lovealwayswins1]

Oh yeah brings back memories thank you!!!

[@ClamorInferno]

This eyes are full of hope! Thank you for turning time back! Where grass was more green then now...

[@SnipE_mS]

That disk seek sound is sooo nostalgic to me. We had a bunch of apple II computers in my elementary school computer room and like 4 windows PCs. I had a windows PC at home so that was great but rhe Apple’s were always an enigma to me. Like how did it work with no GUI? blew my mind back then. Obviously I know now that they run on basic which was on its way out long before I saw it in the 90s but I always loved everything about those computers and still do!

[@samurai_xington]

my mother would love this! this is so cool.

[@TeeDohJackson]

That boot-up sound 😍 Brings me back to my childhood!!!

[@TheNemo65]

I graduated in 84. In my high school, only typing device we had were the typewriters. PC's were there, but only selected few were allowed to use it.

[@The90sGamingGuy]

Played the full color version in 1991 or 1992. Wow, seeing this takes me back.

[@marmac9659]

I love the background music, it's like opening a time portal to the 80's 😢

[@d34dbolt20]

Played it before there were graphics. Such a great memory. My second or third grade class even played a non-computer version of this when only the text based version existed. Teams of three or four kids made up each wagon train. We played in turns. Up to a few per day. Had a large, hand-drawn map that was kept hidden behind the pull-down world map. When the teacher would reveal that map before the end of class was the highlight of my day. We even played a few more games with other themes that used huge maps. A gold rush game and a fantasy game (similar to d&d 0e).

[@abby23789]

I went to school in the 2010s and some 2020s and I remember playing this game and loving it

[@te-shauntv15]

The nostalgia...🔥

I love that game to this day! It's educational but super hard.

[@brewmaster-bq7gu]

Rest in peace Ashton. Your digital legacy will be forever missed.

[@Ru_bizzy]

My first experience was this right here, an outdated computer when I played it too. It was a great experience regardless.

[@Sonny-e4o]

Wow!!! I was OBSESSED with this game in 5th/6th grade

[@g00glian0]

Great video and great music as well. I had to Shazam it!

I would love to show my kids how to use the Apple IIe such great memories! Just can’t find one😢

Bro that sound of keyboard

[@mingrui1862]

I remember playing this in school. They would pair us up with a friend and play it together. One of us would use the W,A,S,D, to turn/move while hunting and the gunho one would man the spacebar to shoot. We were idiots. No supplies, clothes on our backs, no spare ANYTHING but a wagon filled to the brim with ammo. 😂

[@jammck1399]

Wow cool throwback I remember those things during the 80s

[@ipkeez]

The birth of commercial microcomputing is beautiful i lived it!

[@CourtneyHutsell-]

I love old computers

[@cjdig86]

Wow.. I haven’t set eyes on a pc that old since I was in grade school. I haven’t even seen one on KZbin until this very video. I’m 37 now, but this just made me feel 7 years old for a minute …

[@TheGraduate702]

This is something we played in the 5th grade. Brings back so many memories. I don’t think anyone ever made it successfully to the end.

[@unconbentional2044]

I played this for hours during study hall in my High School library, this and Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego!

[@pnrking]

I just searched for typhoid and learned about it thanks for your good videos❤

[@TheNiz73]

I couldn’t wait to get in front of the Commodore in elementary school back in the day to play this. What a great learning tool.

[@Pookiewcue]

I know I’m pretty late but I just love the fact about seeing a game that was made almost centuries ago and I played it on my school computer

[@Pellija4321]

I play this on a website I found with the original 90s version of the game I love it!

[@ramenlover334]

I’m from the UK and even we played Oregon trail. It’s my favourite. I just wish they would do a compilation of all the Oregon trail games as I miss playing some of the windows versions.

Even in elementary school in the late 80s, this was our entire computer lab. A dozen of those drives knocking and keys clicking. Bliss.

I remember when my school first got computers. It was 1986, and I was in fifth grade. Of course, I always seemed to die of dysentery and never made it to Oregon!! 😂
