What players say

I'm so impressed with this game. The fact that a game from 2007 is now my all time favourite horse game says a lot. The graphics are.. of its time, but still strangely beautiful. Especially the surroundings. The mini games are all fun, the riding mechanics are actually a little challenging. A big part of the game is bonding with and caring for your horse, and that's also kinda hard and grindy, which makes it more...

This game held up surprisingly well. Especially on the Ranch and in town the environments are actually really original and nice to look at. The horses look their age lol, but caring for them in the actual stable instead of a minigame screen and taking them for lunging (in again, pretty environments!) is something that is rarely seen in horse games. If you get used to the controls, the riding is interesting enough...

Be warned I got this game thinking it was a port of the Wii version I loved as a kid. It is very much not this is a DS port with janky controls. I thought my kid brain overhyped the graphics and that's why it looked so different, nope it is literally an entire different game :(
