“You have died of dysentery” is a phrase that fans of the videogame The Oregon Trail will be familiar with — but is it destined to be a song lyric, too? That’s the question raised by the news that a musical movie based on The Oregon Trail is in the works.
Originally created in 1971, The Oregon Trail is a simulation of the pioneer days when people traveled to newly stolen — ahem, “acquired” — U.S. territories via the titular trail that stretched from Missouri to Oregon. The 19th-century pioneers had succumbed to all manners of trial and tribulations — yes, including dysentery — which is simulated in the game as you take on the role of a leader of a covered wagon caravan.
