He can travel on a stagecoach, which is the cheapest path, and the only path that is always available to Jerrod, no matter how long he spends in Brooklyn.
There are multiple paths which Jerrod can take to get to his brother. After a few minutes of gameplay, word arrives that gold has been found in California, and it becomes much more difficult for Jerrod to settle his affairs in Brooklyn and find a way to Sacramento. The player is Brooklyn newspaperman Jerrod Wilson, who soon receives word that he must go to Sacramento to meet his long-lost brother. The game is set in 1848, just before the California Gold Rush. The rights to the game are currently owned and published by The Software Farm by its original developers the MacNeills. Gold Rush! is one of the last games that Sierra made with the AGI interface and is one of the most complicated.
Gold Rush! (later retitled California: Gold Rush!) is a graphic adventure video game designed by Doug and Ken MacNeill and originally released by Sierra On-Line in 1988. Amiga, Apple IIGS, Atari ST, DOS, Apple II, Macintosh
