The only one I remember playing is Oregon Trail. I use to love that game. I remember my teachers promising that whoever received the best grades during tests would get to play one of the pc games. I would get them every time so sometimes I got candy instead as a substitute so other kids would have a chance to play. But not a lot. I needed my OT fix.

Podd can explode!
God, Astharis, that game is amazing. I want to play it!
Well, besides my mother getting me hooked on Phonics, I used to play a LOT of Jumpstart. Greatest learning games ever.
Also, I used to play Oregon Trail with my older sister. I usually ended up with my favorite character still alive...
