The other day I was reminiscing about the Oregon Trail with a friend, and later wound up searching it out online. After a couple of run-throughs, I began trying to see just how badly I could cripple my party and still make it through. Since you can all see where this is going - the idea I came up with is a no-food challenge.
The rules are simple:

- You must only buy 1 pound of food (Necessary to leave Independence)
- You cannot buy any bullets
---
All the rest is fair game.
So far my record is about 1300 miles.
I screencapped this shortly before dying.

You can find the Oregon Trail Deluxe edition here (the version I used) and run it using DOSBox

Anyway, it's good fun, I would encourage you to try it if you have a spare hour.
