IDK if this is an unpopular opinion but I really like this game.
Currently playing it with Apple arcade so can't comment on switch version. The tap controls to shoot when hunting truly suck.

I don't think so. I really enjoyed this one with the same gripe as you.

Apple version is different. This game is great. Pricing? A bit overpriced. Should be MSRP $15-$20 and a few dollar purchase.

I'll just comment that I played the apple arcade version and I got kind of bored after a while. There's a lot more "gameplay" beyond dealing with "hunting" and fixing axles. But its a lot more involved and really not the simple game some of us experienced back in the 90s.

I would say it's fine for a game, but not really the same experience if you're going for a shot of nostalgia.

You can always play the original for free https://oregontrail.ws/games/the-...rail/play/

the switch hunting is very simple with joystiq , not an issue at all, just a simple minigame of timing

I do not know the specific details, but the Apple Arcade version is the newest version than the others (Xbox, playstation, switch). it is established that they're different but not really much sources as to how it's different other than it's supposed to be an "improved"?version over all the others. very loosely it's supposed to have more choices and options.. Also, it's an Apple Arcade exclusive.
