The Gilded Age
Authorship not stated
You play Washington Hawkins, whose family leaves worn-out Tennessee acres for a Missouri fortune your father is certain waits at the end of the wagon road. Along the way you take in Clay, a boy just orphaned beside his mother's grave, and carry him aboard the steamboat Boreas. When a rival vessel challenges the captain's pride, the two boats race side by side until a boiler bursts, and you spend the night pulling survivors from the wreck.
