The kudosoft website is closed. Ubi doesn't support this game. The game can't be completed because the grooming task will not complete. The meter rises to the top but the green light never comes on. This is very saddening for a seven year old and very frustrating for her father. This is not the first time we've had problems with Ubi. I would sooner throw my money away before I would buy another UbiSoft game.

Really fun game, STUPID romance

This was an absolutely AWESOME game. OK, so you arrive at your very own brand new stud farm. You have one horse, and the place is a wreck. So you renovate the estate until everything is in lovely peace and order, and you earn more horses as you compete. Davy is the "cute" stableboy who lives there with his kid sister, Rose, and some sort of "romance" unravels between Estelle (your character) and the Davy fellow. It's all mushy and gross and awful. Overall, it's a good game if you can bear the grossest, mushiest romance ever.

this game is okay. im still halfway through it and was stuck with the collected and extended canter, but i read some other reviews and learned that you need to gallop, thanks for posting that! the horses were really ugly in this game, and the graphics weren't all that great. (champion dreams: first to ride has MUCH better graphics, and prettier horses.) the horse's gaits are also kind of messed up, like the trot is really awkward looking. i don't really like how you end up with all these horses, though, because you need to spend so much time caring for them. (i dont like paying davy credits:-) ). i mean, grooming one horse is fun, but when you have 6, it gets a bit tiring! if you're looking for a good horsie game, i would definitely reccomend champion dreams: first to ride. its got just as good of a plot as this game, but the horses are prettier and its just more fun overall.

I'm soooo stuck!!

Dear "Im stuck!" I cannot get past the part where you need to vist Blacklock. I took a page out of the phone book but I still cant find him!! Some guy said to check the river but I cant get in to the river!! The horse moves choppy and have a tiny amount of stamina. Dont buy it!!!

It's a bit tough..

This game is hard at some parts. When you get to an important part, SAVE IT! When I was trying to herd the sheep, one sheep would not go in so I failed. I had to go back to the last time I saved it and that was before I did a competition. Right now I am stuck. I can't catch Blacklock on the fourwheeler. HELP!!

Strangely obsessive ...

I played one of the earlier Saddle Up games and found it frustrating to the point of unplayability. In this one, Ubisoft fixed the problems and left in the thing that made it so much fun: lots and LOTS of horses and reasons to ride them.

Graphics are lovely, with much loving attention paid to the horses and the delightful scenery of a fictional English countryside. Controls are workable and easy enough for anyone to pick up on. The puzzles in the adventure part of the game are mostly very easy with lots of hints, with only two bits that frustrate: herding sheep, something horses don't normally do, and chasing a quad bike. (The way to solve that last one: canter till you reach a short cut, then gallop through the short cut to get ahead of the bike and block its path. Do that twice and you've got your guy.)

This game is so enjoyable it almost makes me want to dig out the old one and see if I can make it work this time.

This game is awsome

1) even if you don't like your first horse train it hard and increase its stanima (you'll need it later) i find using the dressage course is the best way.
2) in the saddler's shop use the ring that rose gave you and you can get a saddle (after you get your saddle you can click the store part again and buy saddle pads and wraps for your horse)
3) when you need to get the keys find the rope in the stable and the magnit on the bird house then press "i" and use them one at a time when there is a blue arrow above rose.
4) when you need to find Blacklock's house follow the blue signs with white trees they are also the only non-square signs (1st be sure to tear page out of the phone book in the village otherwise you'll have to go back to get the pass word)
5) next go the the sheep person (if you go down that path one fork goes to the river otter the other to the sheep feild.) you will have help round up the sheep, it quite easy once you get the hang of it (stay at a walk when you are going to push the sheep with your horse's head facing in the direction you want go then wait for the sheep to come to a full stop before pushing it again)
6) to catch Davy on the bike you need your 1st horse's stanima to be the best posssible this is where traing comes in if you have a full bar of stanima full gallop on the grass untill you are ahead of him the stop you must do this twice (its not that hard if your horse has good stanima)
7) to find your horse's go to the river otter the first one is to your right (i always seem to miss it) the rest are to your left
8) rose is in the middle of the forset not on the trails (her voice will lead you to the section she is in then i find it throws you off so just keep looking you'll find her)
9) to go the back way to Blacklock's house go left out of leaving his fork in the road and click at the gate turn so the green arrow is there again and click, his house is the fist to the right
10) this is where i'm having problems I got what i think are wire cutters (on the bench in the stable)and went the back and right way to blacklock's house (supposed to go back way) and i tried to use them by pressing "use" by Davy and the gate and nothing worked
Did I not get a tool needed? or is it something else please help me!!!!!!!!!!
