Oregon Trail, We Hardly Knew Thee
Very, very, very short. More of a demo or commercial than an actual "lite" game. Took my 9 year old less than 10 minutes to complete. It took me longer than that to decide to download it. Disappointing.
Not long enough!
I can't get a sence of what the full version is like because the demo is so short. I'll buy the full version when it gets to 99 cents.
Okay
It's okay for free version. def a tease to buy the full version but after reading the full version's reviews, not sure I wanna put $5 into it
