GIZORAMA - Organ Trail: Director’s Cut developer, The Men Who Wear Many Hats, does what any creative genius would do and takes something we have nostalgia for and throws some zombies into the mix. American schoolkids of the late 80’s know all about a little gem of an edutainment game called Oregon Trail. In a mostly turned based “watch as the wagon moves left” type of game, Oregon Trail educated kids on the issues pioneers faced as they moved west along the Oregon trail. It mixed resource management and menu based decisions with random happenstance like dysentery and broken bones that could kill you and your family members. Organ Trail takes the idea, puts it in the modern era and instead of a horse-drawn wagon players are behind the wheel of a wood paneled station wagon.
Hardcore Gamer: The Oregon Trail might have been an inadvertently enjoyable “educational” title in school, but Organ Trail is all about having fun, dying of zombie attacks, and much more. Now, it’s getting expanded in a massive way.

Cheers Tom, you were my friend – but since the zombie apocalypse, catching measles and now this, you’ll be lucky if I don’t kill you in your sleep.
