This is a challenge we are working on in fourth grade.
The gold rush was an exciting and dangerous time. Fortunes as well as lives were made and lost. Your challenge is to design a simple 2-3 screen game that captures the drama of the real history of the gold rush.
You will be programming in Scratch and you will share your final game in our class studio.
The game should be some sort of a historical simulation. Let's consider a game that was first produced in 1974. (The was the year Sam was born). Spend a LITTLE time and play the game below. While you play I want you to think about what the game is asking you to do and how it is teaching you things about the Oregon Trail.
You can create or design backgrounds or characters in other programs if needs be. Be mindful of the time you have and make it a priority to finish a playable game.
If you think you could successfully remix another Scratch game, you may.
