The Organ Trail: Director’s Cut is a zombie pastiche of the old favourite edugame, The Oregan Trail, where you had to get a family of settlers to Portland, Oregon, past the perils of the unconquered western USA.

They’re both mainly asset management games, with bastard-hard minigames included. Read chapter one here and two here.
