    VERY meh.

    The old-school graphics were much better. There is also nothing in this game that compensates for it's massive file size. Screw that.

    I guess it's not bad for one run through, though. I forced myself to play through it once just because I paid for it.

    This is a game that holds its initial value very well. I recalled it has been staying like $4.99 for a long long time.

    Very fun game, but as with most Gameloft games, no update to enhance the experience.

    But as a freebie, everyone should grab it.

    Did Gameloft just delete and re-list Oregon Trail? It just went up as a "new" listing, and I am permitted to buy it again, instead of re-downloading.

    This may just be a snafu in the cloud transition, tho.

    I think it's the iPad version you're thinking of. Maybe not. I'm too lazy to check it.

    If you've downloaded this before, check your cloud before doing so because you might get charged if such is the case that Gameloft relisted it.

    I momentarily thought the same, but I think it's simply an iPad game without the requisite "HD" or "For iPad" at the end. It merely has a registered trademark to differentiate the versions.

    IOW, it's not universal and you will be charged again.

    I bought the iPhone version, and "Downloaded" is greyed out in the iPhone version. If the "update" were available for free for the iPad, it would also be greyed out but it's not.
