Trevor Owens of ISTE Games and Simulations SIG has developed a resource called Playing History.  Here he is compiling reviews and links to interactive games based on historical events and concepts.  It’s got a quick navigational front page with recently added games, a game search, and a handy tag cloud with links to games.

My favorite thing I have found so far, on a personal note, is a link to the Virtual Apple 2 Oregon Trail.  Yes, it is an Apple 2 emulator that lets you play the good old Oregon Trail us kids of the 80’s will remember fondly.  RIP Pepparony and Chease, dead of typhoid.  You will be missed.  But now, I am going out to hunt some buffalo and see if I can trade something for another wagon wheel…
