Overall, one of the better "Let's Ride" games.

Let's Ride: Silver Buckle Stables is one of the better of the "Let's Ride" series of horse-related games.

Although it might say there are "20 different breeds," there is no difference in the size, shape, or conformation of any of the horses. It is more like 20 different colors. A good thing is that you can mix and match coat colors, mane colors, blankets, saddles, bridles, and even eye color. You unlock more coat colors as you move up in the classes.

The competition's are fairly easy to beat, but they do go up in difficulty as you move up in classes. The mini-games are also around the farm, but are basically the same as the competition games made to go around natural obstacles.

Finally, I do like the "quick play" of this game compared to most. You still have to bathe and brush your horse, but it is fairly quick, and feeding and watering isn't too bad either. Although you don't do some main things, such as pick hooves, muck stalls, etc, it does help in the aspect of being able to go back to the competitions quicker instead of doing everything around the barn for 5 minutes until you can ride again like some horse-related games make you do.

Overall, good game.

Awsome Game for Horselovers!!!

Silver Buckle Stables is not one of the best games out there but it still is fun. I like it that you can walk around barn and not just click for where you want to go. the game is fun at first, but after you've unlocked every thing and have gotton to the highest level there is'nt much to do. Some of the good points of this game are: it has pretty good graphics, it's very realistic, you can name your horses, and you can ride around in the fields just for fun. Some of the bad points are: it gets boring after a while,and the horses never eat the feed they're given unless they're practicaly starving.
one other extra detail is, If you hit Caps Lock the character will run.

A must have for barrel racing lovers!!

Wow, this game is a must have for anyone who likes barrel racing! The graphics are really pretty good, and as far as the horses, they're out of this world!!! True, it isn't as challenging as some horse games I've played, but it's very fun, and actually relaxing!(except when you have to compete at the "Equestrian Center") But all round, this game is really fun, I would highly recommend it!

I bought this game for my seven year old daugther. She's had it for a while now and still loves it as much as she did the first day. And every now and then, you will find me sneaking a turn, just going for a run on the cross country course, or taking on the challenge of a barrel race around some trees in the woods. I would buy it again, and I am definitely going to expand on the "Let;s Ride" series.

I LOVE HORSES

I received the game today and it was a little frustrating installing the game onto my computer because I have Windows Vista. If you are having the same problem with the wizard being interrupted like I did, you have to Custom install it and make sure you don't install the DirectX9 component. After I figured that out, the game installed and loaded like it was suppose to. The game works great on Vista, graphics are fabulous and much better than I expected. I like that you can ride around the farm without the game blocking you from different areas. You can ride the horse to the practice arena and back again, take off to other places if you want to.

I'm still practicing with the movements and with the different formations you can ride - but the directions are pretty straight forward. I really liked the tutorials in the beginning of the game to get acquainted with the game. Some games don't do that and you end up hunting down the tutorials if you have problems. This game is very easy and a joy to play. I only have it a few hours and I can tell it's going to be addicting.

Now that I had a pleasant experience with this game, I'll probably buy some of the others in the collection.

I have played a few other horse computer games and this game has the best graphics and you get personilize it. You get to change yourself and your horses to fit your mood of the day. You can ride your hourse in a open field or in riding events. They are both lots of fun. I play it when I can. I highly recommend this game to anybody that loves horses!
