Can anyone offer advice on this one? This is the first App I've ever had problems like this with. Oregon Trail is crashing when it tries to load. I click the app, it goes to the company splash screen while loading up, and then silent exits to the home screen.

I've tried:

1. deleting the app and downloading/installing again
2. Doing a soft reboot
3. Turning the phone completely off and back on.

Nothing seems to work. I have an iPhone 4 and iOS4.

Yeah, i haven't really seen anyone else mentioning this problem. I have not a clue what could be causing it. No problems with other apps either.

I had a similar problem but with Real Tennis 2009 and Castle of Magic. Both would load up to the main screen and then crash whenever i'd try to advance further. I tried everything that you did and nothing worked. I emailed Gameloft about this and they said the devs were working on updates but this was over a month ago. I was hoping that when the new iphone came out this would fix my problem but I just tried both games on the iphone 4 and I still have the same problems.

Me too!!

I have the same problem! Only mine starts up the game then freezes once I click a house or just about try to collect anything and it's pissing me off! I'm on level 31 and I do not want to start all over again. I absolutely love this game and if I need to reboot it or start over... I won't!!! I'm starting to hate my iPhone and I havent had it that long!! Regular phones work better then this!:mad::mad::mad:

Since the last update of Oregon Trail, I have not been able to get the game to load past 85%. It just closes out each time I try. Is there anyway that someone can help me? I would rather not loose the progress that I've made so far by deleting and reinstalling!

Hello, I have a question: were you using a GL Live account and were you logged in then the app started crashing?

Also: the game crashed immediately after the update?
