exo-politics

Ha! I had to get in another post today, because I found the neatest thing when I was cruising the internet for something to do today.

Did anyone ever play Oregon Trail back in the '90s? I played a lot in my 5th grade gifted and talented class. (Yeah, you can see our gifts and talents were put to good use :P) I was trying to find a computer game to play today, and I thought about trying to find some kind of free download for Oregon Trail.




Instead I found a website called Virtual Apple II. This thing is awesome! It claims to have nearly every game released for the Apple II computer available to play in your web browser! Now there is a plug in to download for some of the games, but it is just like any other plug in you would use. Like Java, Flash, or whatever. In Google Chrome browser, it's just another extension.

I played the whole game this afternoon. I even named my characters tacky names to provide some amusement on his or her tombstone if they were to die.

It was very fun, and I am looking forward to seeing what other games I can find on there to play!
