  • graphics
    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Played the full prologue, great graphics and I love how much you can customize your horse and character.”
    • “My Horse: Bonded Spirits is quite probably an asset-flipped horse ownership simulator, basically a subset of the horse management gameplay in Red Dead Redemption 2, only with worse graphics, shallower gameplay, and a higher price tag.”
    • “The graphics and animations are also clunky and ugly.”
    • “They want you to believe it's got Red Dead graphics, but while the world is 'prettyish', it lacks everything that makes it feel alive.”
  • gameplay
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The humor and personality infused into the gameplay made it an enjoyable experience.”
    • “Cute horses, beautiful graphics, and interesting gameplay.”

    • “Plus, the jump mechanic is too fast and unpredictable, and barrel racing is hell on earth.”
    • “The horse movement reminds me of Mount & Blade, but much worse; the simulator mechanics remind me of The Sims, but much worse.”
  • monetization
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy for "my horse: bonded spirits" has been criticized as misleading, with the game being described as an advertisement rather than a full product. Users express frustration over the practice of publishing demos and ads as games, which detracts from genuine developers and misleads consumers into paying for what is essentially promotional content. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as exploitative and harmful to the gaming community.

    • “The purpose of this advertisement is to get you to shell out an eye-watering twenty United States dollars to unlock the full game, and I don't recommend you do.”
    • “While it might seem like an innocuous mistake, publishing demos and advertisements as if they are full games is misleading and in some ways harmful.”
    • “It's impossible for me to recommend this incorrectly published advertising spam to gamers; you deserve better than adverts.”
  • humor
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is widely appreciated, with players finding the absurdity of the gambling backstory and unrealistic training suggestions genuinely funny. The quirky personalities of the NPCs and the overall comedic tone contribute to an enjoyable experience, making the game stand out among other horse-related titles. Many players recommend experiencing the humor while the game is free, despite acknowledging the need for potential updates in the full version.

    • “Honestly, I find the whole gambling backstory hilarious, and I'm really not bothered by the grumpy characters like some other people are, especially since I only came here for the horses.”
    • “Some of the training suggestions (such as going out in the forest to make your horse experience all the scary sounds at once) made me laugh at how unrealistic they were, but I didn't feel like it took away from the game itself.”
    • “The humor and personality infused into the gameplay made it an enjoyable experience.”
  • stability
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
