California, 1849. Word of gold in the hills has emptied whole towns back east, and you play Jerrod Wilson, packing up in New York to chase the same rumor across a continent. This is a classic Sierra point-and-click adventure, rebuilt from the 1988 original, and it hands you the three real routes prospectors took west: overland by wagon, by sea around Cape Horn, or through the fever country of Panama. Each path carries its own hazards and small dramas. You work through inventory puzzles one careful decision at a time, headed for the diggings.
