I played that along with SimCity, SimPark and Rollercoaster Tycoon. After some undisclosed amount of time I'd just set all the disasters in place and watch the whole thing go to ***.
Oh that and building rollercoasters that shot people into orbit or walls at high speed.
Edit: How could I forget my 2nd grade pal "The Oregon Trail" and the fun you could have with the naming scheme.

found this little gem yesterday, & I'm feeling altruistic(sp?) today, in case anyone else was on my level 15 or so years ago .....

My dad used 'Oregon Trail' as a hunting simulator a lot. That pissed my brother and I off like no other!
Also, when my dad wanted to play any of the Mario games with us, my brother and I would have to "share" the second controller. Sibling Smackdowns: Round One! My brother would sit on my chest, and my dad never batted an eyelash! Then, while we were distracted with our brawling a bit, he would take the opportunity to use a warp whistle and go where ever the *** he wanted.
AGH!!!

You've arrived at a river:
Chalk the wagon and Float it.
Ford the River. - "Dunno what ford means, lets do it!"
Wait for a Ferry.

You're gonna have a bad time.

If you're next in succession, then they keep closer tabs on you too! The hi-jinx of our predecessors left us seriously boned!
EDIT: Access, improvise, adapt, and overcome. That's a good mantra for us!

Ha, as the older sibling you think you have your parents full attention them BLAM-O this new pipsqueak appears and you're left to fend for yourself while the parents retool their experiences on their shiny new 9 month investment. "Lets go to the park! I wanna play" "Mommy's tired, the baby is sleeping"
The fuq? Throw that thing on my grandmother, I want to PLAY PLAY PLAAAAAAY.
When I get scolded it's you're "too old for this" "you should know better" "this is ridiculous having to deal with" or "you're setting a bad example"....
To hell with examples! The younger sibling always gets let off on a count of being the 'baby' when its only like 5 years between us tops! The hell? I got smacked for that when I was her age and now she gets a stern talking to? Blasphemy!
Oh and worse you younger siblings all know the advantages and use them upon us burdened with the honor of being first out of the waterslide.

Oh no! This seems vaguely familiar, except my brother and I were two-and-a-half years apart. LOL!
Well, despite the parent/child/child relationship, I can say that the sibling/sibling one was stronger than the parent/child one as we got older. Aaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnddddd...That schadenfruede from watching my brother beat some *** when necessary was down-right savory!
My oldest brother was an *** to me for a very long time lol... wasn't until I was out of college that we started to get along...
Morning Nians!
Brothers huh? Thats where we left off, well like I said before, I disowned one brother from my life, the eldest, my fathers first son. My other brother, is my mothers first son, and even though he is only a half brother, I have never considered him anything less than full blooded brother. He is the example I live to be as a big brother to my lil sis.
I am the middle child! /needs needs needs attention!
