Oh how I wished for a game like this when i was a kid and actually competing in three day events!
This game is fairly solid and easy to figure out. I like having the different eventing levels to work towards. The controls take a little getting used to at first, and sometimes it is frustrating when your horse refuses a jump, but I like this as it is realistic. If you are riding in real life and come at a jump too fast or two slow, or at a bad angle, chances are, the horse will not jump it.
I would like to see more details included- for instance, falling off if you do something goofy, or having to take a break because you've pushed your horse too hard too quickly. Thigns to make this game more realistic.
It is irritating sometimes that the horse canters on the wrong lead, but overall, a fun game. I really wish I'd had this growing up, I think I would have gotten even more enjoyment out of it.
I agree with whoever said it would be nice to walk around the stables, barn, etc, instead of just scroll through the options.
The only thing that really annoys me is the amount of time you have to spend brushing and petting your horse. I don't play game a lot, so when I do get to sit down and play, I want to play! To me, sitting there and electronically petting your horse, then electronically brushing your horse for 5 minutes each, then watering and haying, is too much time. I believe you should have to click the button, which would signify that you did brush, pet, feed, water, etc, and then get to go about your business.
All in all, a fun game. I'll bet there are tons of young horse lovers that would love to play this.
