David Ladyman reviewed Oregon Trail in The Space Gamer No. 47.{{cite journal|last= Ladyman |first= David |authorlink= David Ladyman |date=January 1982 |title=Capsule Reviews|journal=The Space Gamer|publisher=Steve Jackson Games|issue=47|pages=24–25}} Ladyman commented that "Oregon Trail can't really be cited for historical accuracy because you don't know what parts are accurate and what have been dramatized. In sum, a nice try, but I can't think of a good reason to buy the game."
