The BEST game i have EVER had

Trust me, i have had so many games in my life its unbelievable. And this game has the be the best. The graphcs are great and the horses are SO realistic.

Basically at first u choose make urself. You pick your difficulty, nationality, your apperearance, your name etc. Then you get shown around your stables. After that you go to your stables and pick your horse. You pick its breed, height and gender. then you pick its color, markings, name and so on. Once youve done all of that you pick what its good at, speed, jumping, stamina, trust and agility.

Once youve done all that you have to train and look after your horse and you can qualify for major events, ADelaide, Kentucky, Badminton and burgley. Once youve done each of them you move up a level, it starts at 2* then 3 then 4. Each time you do something you get rewarded, whether it is a better style of clothing or a new horse.

If you dont want to do that you can go riding with your friends in any event of ANY level.

This is a MUST HAVE game. If you love horses, games and fun you'll love this game.

Awesome game!!Review by EventingRider

I own this game and i LOVE it...I can't stop playing it..the graphics are amazing and i like the fact that you can create your own horse instead of just picking the horses they have...I do think that they should've included a bigger variety of horse breeds to choose from...i reccomend this game to anyone who's a horse lover,rides in three day events like i do,and has a TON OF PATIENCE...because the four star training can become frustrating...I like this game a whole lot better than Time To Ride and My Horse Farm

Make Sure You Have a DVD-Rom NOT a CD-Rom

I was very excited to get this game and the day I got it in the mail from amazon I went straight to the computer and the game simply wouldn't load. The reason is because I have a regular CD-rom not a DVD-Rom, therefore the game doesn't work. So I take it to my laptop and try it there. However, if you read the small print on the box it says it won't work with laptops because of the graphics card, so the game just "glitches" through everything. Overall, I was extremely excited for this game, I'm sure it's really great, but just make sure you have what you need to play it!

AWSOME! must have!

This is a awsome game! The graphics are REALLY good, you can have up to like 6 horses. The movment of the horse is really relaistic also. I wouldent give it to anyone under the age of 9 though. I like it a 100% more then the Equestrad. It loads very esaley on the computer and starts up really fast!

A must buy for a horsey child!

Fun game but ....

Let's get to the good stuff first... I am a western rider so buying this game not knowing what to expect I was a bit skeptical. The graphics of this game are fantastic - the horses are very "real" as are the riders you get to create in the image of yourself. You get to take care of the horse you create and you get to ride three disciplines - Dressage, Show Jumping and Cross Country. Now being from the western style of riding, I've never done any of the three and had no clue as to what they involve. The Dressage portion you'll need hand and eye coordination and you definitely need no distractions if you want to succeed in all three events. This part of the game is the most fun and worth it. You also have Lucinda giving you encouragement and tips as you go along - which is good.

Now for the bad stuff. Well, not so much bad stuff but I was wanting basic horse supplies when I first tried the game - you will eventually get all the supplies you need but you have earn the items. So the more you win events, the more stuff you get. And basically you start off with the bare basics, one outfit per event for you and your horse. As you win events, you receive treats such as better tack, better clothes, and sweets for your horse. The other thing is that most of the movement is with your keyboard, not your mouse. I'm better with the mouse than the keyboard, so this has proven a challenge for me, somewhat. The cross country courses are a bit confusing, especially for me, since I've never done those before. The Dressage takes some time to get the knack if you don't know what it is or how the patterns go. It's best to get into a rhythm and stick with it. I was hoping for more interaction with other riders and others on the farm.

If you have a good graphics card, and a strong computer, you are going to be pleased with this game. Once you get started, this game is very addicting!


This is the best horse game ever!

love this game! I have gone through MANY horse games and so far, this is at the top of my list.For those of you who have not yet gotten the game, I'll post some of the good and bad things about the game.

Good:
Great graphics
Realistic Movements, horses, people and scenery
Great sound effects
Easy to take care of all of the horses
Great coat color, markings, and tail colors to choose from
Easy to get around
Many activities to do
Useful prizes
The Disciplines are fun to do
When creating a horse, you can choose from lots of things like hight, gender(mare,stallion,gelding), color, makings,ect...
There is a difference between Mares and Stallions & Geldings

Bad:
Hard to learn the conrols- You use A,S,D,W to control the horses
Dressage gets a little over the top on 4-star training
In Dressage you use the arrow keys to do the movement. Very much like Dance, Dance Revolution
If your horse runs into the post at the finish line, you get a refusal
Only 3 breeds to choose from: Thoroughbred, Warmblood/Thoroughbred, and Irish Sport Horses and there id no difference between the breeds

Overall this game is wonderful and is worht the money! So what are you waiting for?! Go buy it today! :)

This is a fantastic game! You can have all sorts of horses, although the three breeds don't vary. It is based on three day eventing. For dressage, it is basically like dance dance revolution, where you use the arrow keys in a certain pattern, and push them when a circle moves over them. The jumping is verey much fin, especially because it doesn't nessicarily have to be manual. Just a hint, jumping is much more fun when it is set to automatic. Taking care of your horse is also neccesary, which makes it much more realistic, especially since your horse won't perform as well if you don't take care of it. This is a fantastic game! When you get this game, you will no beleive how much fun it is and will not beleive how realistic and pretty the horses are.

Out of all the games I have played, this is one of the best. The graphics blew my socks off. They aren't shoddy and are really well made. Time was taken into this game. The horses look so real. The only thing I would change really change would change would be, I would put in a story line, like Time to ride saddles and stables.
