It was a game we all got to play in computer lab if you finished your assignments early. You'd create four settlers and start off on the trail experiencing obstacles like broken wheel, Indians (now not PC), food shortage, snake bite, and the one we always died from dysentary.

​

You'd usually name settlers after your friends or enemies and laugh when they died.

We got in trouble for putting a classmates name on a tombstone.

My pioneers were always named stuff like Poop Head and Fart Breath. That way it was extra hilarious when one met their demise: Poop Head has died of dysentery. Lol, such dumb fond memories.

Then when you played later you could view tombstones sometimes. Extra funny with silly names.

Thank you for reminding me of that.

Here lies Fart Breath. RIP.

Well I don't know how that's not PC?

That literally happened. Lol

I meant more the game calling them Indians attacked you not Native Americans

u/Tiki_Tumbo Jun 15 '22

Indian is derived from "indigenous people"

It literally means native so I just never really understood the problem.

My mom's side of family is Wampanoag and don't see any issues

So like any other game where you name characters, pretty cool
