Physics-Based Side-Scrolling Puzzle Game for Computers and Smartphones

Anyone who grew up during the 1980s will likely remember the popular PC-based game Oregon Trail. This new variant is an updated version and it offers a truly challenging environment.

Demanding Scenarios and Entertaining Graphics

The Trail West is known as a physics-based side-scrolling game. The main goal is to construct bridges in order to cross mighty gaps within mountain ranges so that a wagon train can safely make it to the other side. The player is provided with a limited selection of materials. He or she will then need to implement these substances in the correct manner to avoid disaster. Levels become harder as the game progresses and arriving at the ultimate goal will require a great deal of skill. The graphics are also quite detailed.

Realistic Physics for Even More Excitement

The Trail West has incorporated the Unity3D engine, so the associated graphics (such as when a bridge collapses) are very realistic. These physics are then enhanced through the use of high-definition software and better third-person camera angles. The user will need to have at least 179.59 megabytes of available memory.

PROS

  • An updated take on the classic Oregon Trail game.
  • There are multiple levels for a player to overcome.

CONS

  • Certain users have claimed that the responsiveness of this game is very slow.
  • The selection of polygons provided to construct bridges is limited.
