This highly addictive game is super fun! My horse crazy daughter loves taking care of her own (virtual) horses - and hey, I'm off the hot seat because it sure beats having a real horse in our yard! This game is outstanding because it promotes friendship between the player and the virtual horses. The game installs easily and runs perfectly on our xp pc. The interface is easy-EASY, I haven't had to come to the rescue at all!

My Horse Farm is the best PC Game!!!!!

(...)I got the My Horse Farm PC game for my birthday. It's really fun! It taught me about spending money wisely and how to make a living. In the game, you start off with $4000.00. That may seem like alot at the beginning of the game, but it's not enough to have your own farm, so a thing I do is sell my horse and increase the money on my guest house, and then I can buy two horses when I have enough money, and I get to breed a foal. You have to exercise your horse each round (a round is like a day. There is a button to make it a new day). I would not give it to kids under 8 years old. This game is a great game to play! Especially if you like horses! I recommend it highly! *****

A really AWESOME Horse Game

This game has it all and it is really addicting and offers a lot of variety. This is great for younger kids it's but it is also interesting and a lot of fun even for adults. You build and develop your own horse farm in a really nice sim. You buy and sell horses, groom, feed, pet and train them and extend your farm. You build stables, breed until you get the racehorse and try to attract customers to stay your inn/farm.

The tournaments are tons of fun. You have to train quite so you can get good enough and advance to the next level. At the horse dealer you can buy great stallions and also trade horses. You always have to try to have enough cash so you can advertise your farm and make more money and further extend your farm.

The cross-country trail is fun and since there are levels you can choose from - it's easy, medium or advanced. You can choose different trails and ride around a lot. The graphics are great and you can even change you clothes for an upcoming tournament and then change back into your stable gear when you take care of your horses.

I totally recommend it for horse lovers -- kids & grown-ups alike.

What a Horse Farm!

This is an awesome game!!! It's so worth the money! You actually TRAIN your horses (not like other games where you just ride), and the cartoonish graphics actually make the game more fun. It teaches a lot of math and how to spend money wisely. Anyone could play this game and see it as fun!

fun,fun,and more fun!

At first I didnt like this game because of the graphics but once I learned how to play I really thought it was fun one time I was so interested that I woke up at 8:00am and played the whole game to 11:00pm
If you are a horse lover and know some amount about horses you will love this game if you do NOT like horses you might still like it but I dont know because I am a major horse lover so here are some things in the game-

-feed and groom your horse every day.

-keep practicing your riding skills you could make it to the championships

-they will giveyou tasks to do for instance "breed a horse".

- you can go to the breeders office to breed a horse or you can own a stallion and a mare and buy the breeding pasture and breed them yourselves

If you buy this item I hope you have fun with it and hope my review was helpful to you.

I bought this for my 8 yr old grand daughter for Christmas. She is an avid horse lover. It is amazing what she is capable of figuring out on her own. On the game, she has been saving up money to purchase stud fees. She has even figured out if you take things back to the store you purchased for the horse, that they return money.
At first she was a little stumped, but after she caught on what was going on the computer hasnt shut off since then.
Highly recommend this game for a learning experience.

My girls love it!

My two daughters (ages 6 and 11), both experienced game players, enjoy "My Horse Farm" tremendously. My 6-year old does need occasional help from her older sister, but can play without assistance most of the time. My 11-year old also plays on her own without being bored. I do think its a great accomplishment for the game's creators that both girls like it! I recommend it highly!

I have played games from all over, the Sims, all the zoo tycoon games, Nacy Drew, and a billion horse games but this game is one of the best!!!!
In the begining it is hard, really hard. However once you get going it is so much fun. Even My friend who hates computer games like's it. The grapics are animated but cute and you get rare colors like white once in a great while.

The Best!!!!

I give this game 5 billion stars, I love it sooooo much!! I know, it's really hard to start with $4000, but me and my friend did it, and now we've bought a horse that was $7650! And we earned it fair and square, no cheat codes or anyhting. Anyway, I have a few tips:
~When you have a foal, spend as much time as you can petting and brushing it. That way, when he/she's older, you won't have to spend endless rounds patting it until it finally looks at you. Just like with real foals, it's good to get them used to human touch early on!
~Also like real foals, the foals will come at any time, so always be on the lookout. I've had one foal (on the game) come the round after the mare was bred, and one about 15 rounds later!
~When you start out, I suggest buying the land and building the guest house, and buying the parking lot. Work on building your horse's trust early on, and you'll get $1,500 for it. When the guest house is built, advertise!!! Sometimes, you might run low on cash and your ad might not be able to be placed, but work with it!
~Hiring a groom is really good too. I always hire Kathy. They (despite their name) don't groom your horse, but they feed and muck out. Also, that way you can get some boarded horses.
~When your horse is injured with a contusion (which WILL happen), don't drag her to the vet. Instead, brush her, feed her, sponge her legs, and then go to the vet - by yourself - and click on the 'pharmacy(sp?)' button. Then click on long term medicences or whatever it's called. Then, buy the medicene that's in the little tube. Go home, and click on the first aid thing, and put it on your horse. A message should pop up that says "[horse's name] is reacting well to your treatment! After a few rounds, the resaults will show." Also, I recommend buying the hoof gaiters to help prevent injuries.
~The riding hall is a good source of income! It may be expensive to build, but it's worth it if you hire an instructor. Your farm has to be at level '2' to be able to build it. That just means your stable and house have to be upgraded once. Then go in and hire 'Max Mcjumper'. He's the best.
~NOTE: If a groom or instructor quits, just go back to your house and hire them again!
Happy playing! Come back and ask for more tips if you want, I'd be happy to help!

I AM 15 AND LOVE THIS GAME!

This game is full of challenges. I think younger kids can learn a ton about horses and caring for them. If it get too hard, they can just go out to the trails to ride and jump. Teens like me are going to have to really think about running a farm. I am always thinking about my next steps and how to make my business grow. I guess I am addicted. The most important thing is that it's fun.
