Who remembers playing this classic game? In grade school this was the computer game you got to do as a reward for whatever good job you did, on an old apple computer.

If you played it, you can relive the magic. And if you didn't now you can experience it. Complete with the requirement to flip the floppy disk to side 2

I remember this old game... It took me and my sister weeks if not months to beat it. No joke, we were ten at the oldest back then.

I still remember when my sis got all the way to the part where you can float downstream near the end... then crashed the raft and had to start over. That was the first time we got that far too...

Has anyone else here play "The Amazon Trail"?

I bow before you, sir. Haha, thank you, this is awesome. Quite the gem you've found here.

Edit: Thankfully I have a windows desktop, though. Isn't it kinda odd that you can't play this classic apple game on an apple? lol.

I was playing WoW in the backround and yet I spent two hours playing this instead.
