The Yukon Trail - brutalmoose 

My family was going to Canada on vacation recently but they turned us away at the border because we didn't have 1000 pounds of food each in our station wagon. They can be mighty picky, those Canadians.

I like to imagine that Ian and his partner just sitting around not doing anything and all of a sudden he blurts out "I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEG"

*"you need a partner!"* *"you should try and find a partner!"* *"you could use a partner!"* *"you could die alone! best to have a partner with you."* - my family, when i come home for Thanksgiving and Christmas

"I fell down and hurt my leg" sounds like a lifealert ad

Rest in piece, Trail Bike. Gone, but not forgotten. Never forgotten.

$10 in 1897 is nearly equivalent to $300 in 2016. Does the captain refund the money for throwing the passengers' bicycle overboard without permission?

"Short enough to finish in a single trip to the computer lab" In my experience most trips to the computer lab in elementary school were kept pretty short so as not to allow kids to have too much fun.

R.I.P. Dyea, Alaska. Skagway still exists, my grandma went there on a cruise with her husband back around 2006. She even saw the grave of “Soapy” Smith while on a tour of the local sites. When I asked her if she’d been to the nearby town of Dyea, she seemed perplexed. I looked it up later and found out Dyea became a ghost town in the years after the gold rush was over.

So the captain and some random guy just threw someone else's property off the ship?

"We're not leaving until we give that poor bicycle a proper burial!"

My favorite "Trail" game! Spent way too much time in the saloon playing cards.

"Some of our food has been stolen! There seems to be no respect for personal property!" What was your first clue, the ship captain throwing your $10 bike overboard or the fun party game "let's see how many icebergs we can crash into in 20 minutes"? :3

Am I the only one who absolutely loves the voice acting of Ian's gold-hunting partner?

The guy who threw away the trail bike is irresponsible as hell Who throws a passenger's belongings off the ship without permission?!

You know...this Canadian border makes for a good resting place.

Tell that freaking dude to chill out. If someone was eating my food and falling over ALL the time. Bump that dude.

Moneybags breaks his leg as much as Mary drowns.

Honestly, a bike might be deceptively useful. It's a pile of gears, chains, wheels, and metal poles just waiting to be cut apart and repurposed for all kinds of homemade machines.

I've been to Skagway. It has some pretty beautiful mountains, and of course, *trains*.

RIP Trail Bike 2016 - 2016

I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEYYYG

He should have inscribed the bike's name on a piece of wood as a grave.

my piece of wood sense is tingling

Between yesterday and today, I spent over 12 hours studying college physics and going to classes. But a new Brutalmoose made today a little bit better. :) Awesome episode, as usual. *YES! I AM OUTSPOKEN IN MY SUPPORT!*

(5:40) Imagine someone not going to the gold rush and was just travelling to Dyea to visit family, and going on a bike trail in the area. Then some jackass thought it was fun to just throw it overboard. Both theft of property, and environmental damage. Nice.

Am Canadian. Can confirm, wrestled bear this morning.

As an Alaskan, we had this on our computer lab computers instead of Oregon Trail. I loved it so much. Think I won it maybe only two or three times.

The re-watchability of Brutalmoose's videos is amazing. This is probably the fifth time I'm watching this one. 👍🏻

I am a resident of the Yukon. I worked at a museum primarily about the klondike gold rush... I'm not sure how I feel about a lot of the info this game presented... But it was good enough. 6/10 on the info scale.

I used to be an adventurer like you, but I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEG

You know...this video makes for a good resting place.

Like the young Iphigenia. The trail bike was sacrificed by a crazed man who only saw it as an item to be use to assuage the wrath of Artemis, but fear not for now it serves as on as one of Artemis' hunting companions striking fear into all mortals when it chimes the bell announcing another hunt.

This comment section makes for a good resting place

I...want the outro music...Ian! why not link or say the names of music in your descriptions?

I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEG!

Y'know, this trail game makes for a good restin' place.

You know, this river would make a good resting place.

Dammit Ian, why didn't you take your boy Jake? Everyone named Jake is trustworthy and cool and handsome and smart and handsome. Especially people named Jake who are from Seattle. (I would know. I'm from Seattle).

I love this old game, along with Oregon Trail 1 & 2. My favorite character was the dancer and singer saloon girl up in Dawson City.

shoulda gone with ol Trustache instead of money bags.

5:35 "Hahaha, your right that is funny! Wanna know whats also funny? Compensation! I sure hope you got the money to pay me back for that, or you'll get to see how funny it is being tossed into ice cold water. Won't that be hilarious?"

People constantly telling you to have a partner? Man, this really IS a Valentine's Day video!

Ground: Exists Midas T. Golden: I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEG! I NEED TO STOP AND TAKE CARE OF IT!

So money bags and that lady who kept falling in the water from the Oregon trail game should get together. They can get places very very slowly together....

Y'know, this riverbed makes a great restin' place.

Skagway means "Ugly Windy City" and the town was mainly filled with brothels at the time...fitting name it seems. But now it's a really cute town, even if it's more for the tourist. A good window into the past too!

3 to 4 weeks on foot but only a couple of days on a bicycle? Man old timey bikes were SCAAAAAREY.

Skagway actually had its run as a gold town. It flopped, but there is still an old gold mining town there, as well as an attraction where you can learn to pan for gold.

*steps over a rock* i fell down and hurt my leg!

Yeah there are two money traps like that at the beginning I think it's random which choices you get but both the bike and the "gold sniffing gophers" just cost money and don't do anything. BUT both the caviar and the eggs can be sold later on in the game for decent cash

Rest in peace Trail Bike... we need to give her a proper burial. Someone get me a piece of wood!

Trail bike will always be remembered with this PIECE OF WOOD

That feeling when you're trying to get gold and your partner falls down and hurts his leg.

This was my Oregon Trail growing up in Alaska in the early 90s and not having a computer of my own. I played this at school during computer lab, and I thought it was fun learning what the best choices were for the game. Like who's the best partner, what's the best ship and ticket class, and a big one was honestly which boat design is best. I had to play multiple times to figure that one out because if you fell too many times or took too long there were consequences to that. My understanding is that it's based somewhat on actual history and trying to teach that history while also teaching about consequences for our choices. But yeah, kinda boring, but when the alternative is to just practice reading and typing....I think I'll play The Yukon Trail!

"this joke got away from me a little bit but i'm keepin it." 2 thumbs up

"I seem to have caught a virus that causes me to gain weight and always be full, also someone keep stealing all our food, nobody has respect for personal property!"

I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEG I NEED TO STOP AND TAKE CARE OF IT.

I grew up in Alaska and was a 3rd grader circa 2003. My schools computer lab did not have organ trail but we did have yukon trail.

I played this game in my computer class in elementary school.....that was 20 years ago, I feel old.

When I first played this game, I was already familiar with “The Oregon Trail” (5th Edition), but here’s how I came to enjoy this one as well in spite of having played the better game first. I had just got a tooth pulled at the dentist and my mouth was still numb from the medication. My dad felt sorry for me and so we went and bought some software games at the nearest Costco and Yukon Trail was in the pack. I was impressed with the game, but it was partly due to the numbing agent I was under. Still learned a lot about history. I picked Midas as a partner because he looked like my dad (personalities were quite different though). Good memories.

I imagine some guy from Seattle going on a fishing trip and fishing out a bike

This game brings back so many memories. I always remembered that the businessman was the worst even though he had the most money

"Silver and gold! SILVER!" "I thought you said you wanted gold." "I CHANGED MY MIND!"

When the music first started playing, I got a ton of nostalgia. I loved this game when i was a kid...

What an overload of good videos today. And now a new brutalmoose episode to top it off! Great video Ian (:

i am so glad i stumbled across this channel again now my pc is running. just keeps getting better!

For some reason I died laughing when he says "YES! LETS BUY IT!"

1:41 Wow Dyea really *does* sound like the place to be! Such enthusiasm. I'm convinced!

You know, this river seems like a good restin' place.

Anyone else miss this classic Moose format? I love his old intro 😍 I been watching moose for years !!!!

I fell down and hurt my leg!

Seeing old Ian compared to his new videos is almost like two different people

Anywhere with the word skag in the name sounds like my kind of town, gotta love you a bit of skag, 2 or 3 times a days.

0:59 don't forget not resorting to cannibalism

oh yay... nothing more exciting than the Yukon trail...

What one of the best most iconic games ever made

2:20 that person just looks like a terrible mix of hank and peggy hill from king of the hill

This is the trail game I'm most nostalgic for, though I know Oregon is really the best one. There was just something about the doableness of the whole thing, how you can survive pretty easily, with the challenge being in score.

Not gonna lie i had no idea that there was this many trail games. Another great video Moosey keep it up :)

Daaamn, this was literally my favorite game when I was a kid! Anytime I tried to talk to anyone about it, nobody had even heard of it though. Everyone thought I was talking about Oregon Trail. Never wound up finding a ton of gold either, unfortunately since it was usually claimed. Anyway, thanks for the nostalgia! You should check out the game 1602 AD, if you've never played it.

There Seems To Be No Respect For Personal Property *I FELL DOWN AND HURT MY LEG*

brings back some memories of plating this game in the shed, on a computer in the early 2000's. thanks.

Midases are easy to come by, but Trail Bikes? Trail Bikes are once in a lifetime.

“Canada has bears, right?” God you don’t know the half of it. We have so many bears

When I think of "Skagway" I think of skags from borderlands, and I hate skags... So I hate Skagway

I remember there were a whole bunch of demos on the CD. Odell Down Under, some museum adventure game w/ a boy and robot, and I think the Amazon Trail to name a few. Probably what I do remember more than this game itself.

Yes, Canada has bears. You're welcome.

I totally forgot that I had played this game as a child until this video. It reminded me how much I played (and enjoyed?) Yukon Trail! Thanks for all the memories! :)

Yukon Trail players🤝 Aromantic people Getting harassed over their lack of a partner

The outro music sounded so nice for some reason. Reminds me of those older styled modern games we have a lot of.

I want one of these games where they talk like you when something happens. 'Oh, no, he's dying of dysentery! That's that thing where you mix up the letters in a word and think you read something else instead, right?' Yes, that is what dysentery is. And then if you choose yes, they continue with the trail, but have to stop to constantly tell you to stop eating every time you read 'Eats' on the map, or else your food will be gone by the time you reach the 'Thorn'. No, that is Dyslexia. And if you choose no, you point to a member in town and tell your partner 'Dis en Tery, Dat en Bobby, and dos en ar da Johnsons.' And then audience laughter ensues and credits roll, but it's a minigame and you have to choose which names to jump over. If you succeed, you get to stock up your rations at the craft services table.

The amount of times I've played this as a kid was wild and the canoe part I totally forgot about

This is one of my very earliest memories, watching my older brother play this in our living room.

Lemons 3: I DON'T WANT YOUR DAMN LEMONS.

i saw this game at half price books today, thought "huh ive never seen gameplay of this before", and then it ends up as a brutal moose video. thank the video game review gods, this is EXACTLY who I'd wanna see review this.

This was my FAVORITE game as a kid, jfc. It was always so exciting to have a video game set in the region I grew up in. Not many games ever take place in the PNW. Oh and Skagway is a gross town. Don't ever go there.

Oh man! I totally had this when I was a kid. Good times were had.

Y'know... this riverbank makes for a good resting place.

This was my favorite mindless game as a kid... 😂😂😂 it's funny how things were different in our memories
