  • The game offers a great sense of progression and customization for both horses and gear, making it enjoyable for players who love horses.
  • The controls are simple to learn, and the gameplay provides a cozy yet competitive experience, perfect for both solo play and competing with friends.
  • Despite its age, the game has decent graphics and animations, and it captures the essence of horse riding well.
  • The game has a frustrating pay-to-win model, requiring players to spend real money to progress effectively, which can detract from the overall experience.
  • The action point system limits playtime, forcing players to wait for energy to replenish or spend money to continue playing, which can be tedious.
  • The community is small and often inactive, making it difficult to find matches or engage with other players, leading to a repetitive gameplay experience.
  • graphics
    57 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the visuals as "amazing" and "pretty," while others criticize them as "awful" and "low quality." Many users note that the graphics have not aged well compared to other contemporary titles, and there are complaints about performance issues on lower-end PCs. Overall, while some appreciate the art style and horse models, the consensus suggests that the graphics could benefit from significant improvements and optimization.

    • “The graphics are amazing.”
    • “Graphics wise this is a better one than other PC or console horse riding games I've seen for quite a few years.”
    • “Everything about this game is perfect, the graphics, the gameplay, the competitive mode, the grooming, everything.”
    • “Horrible graphics, scam, old and glitchy.”
    • “The graphics are awful.”
    • “The graphics seem far worse than the old game was (most likely because they put it on Facebook).”
  • gameplay
    43 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game is generally enjoyable, featuring good animations and engaging mechanics, though it suffers from limitations such as a frustrating "action point" system and repetitive tasks that can detract from the experience. While some players appreciate the realistic horse mechanics and the challenge of obstacle courses, others criticize the lack of depth and the reliance on paid subscriptions for extended play. Overall, it offers a decent experience for casual players, particularly those with an interest in equestrian themes, but may not satisfy those seeking a more robust gameplay experience.

    • “Overall a very enjoyable game for those who seek good gameplay and an emotional storyline.”
    • “The mechanics of the game are challenging in a fun way, and I don't feel they are unfair at all.”
    • “This game is genuinely fun for me - I have an equestrian background and I find it very relaxing to play, and fairly realistic to the mechanics of both horse movement and building jumps in real life.”
    • “Being a virtual horse game, there is not much to do as it gets harder; what a waste of gameplay.”
    • “The mechanics are off; the horses run regardless of you pressing the button up and down. You need to change gait with 1, 2, 3... the jumps are slow, the horses are slow - I get that you'll have to train it and add stats to it, but it takes forever. I took a course where you needed tight fast turns... impossible to achieve.”
    • “As good as a riding game gets, I guess, the main insult is the 'action point' system, which limits you to 10 minutes of gameplay before paying money or waiting x hours.”
  • story
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story aspect is highly polarizing among players; many express disappointment over the lack of a main storyline or engaging narrative, feeling it detracts from the overall experience. While some players appreciate the emotional depth and compelling elements of the gameplay, others criticize it as merely a sports game with minimal storytelling. Overall, the absence of a substantial story is a common critique, suggesting that the game could benefit significantly from a more developed narrative.

    • “Overall a very enjoyable game for you who seek good gameplay and an emotional storyline.”
    • “But after I played it for a while, I found myself lost in a beautiful masterpiece of a compelling storyline, amazing visuals, and a harsh competitive feel.”
    • “The story is exciting every second, and will have you at the edge of your seat.”
    • “And there isn't much for a main storyline or roles.”
    • “My only real disappointment with the game is there's zero story at all.”
    • “This game is an acceptable stopgap solution for me, but if you want a non-Facebook style horse MMO with an actual storyline, this isn't the game for you.”
  • grinding
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessive and tedious, often leading to repetitive gameplay that can feel more like a chore than an enjoyable experience. While some appreciate the mindless nature of grinding for relaxation, many express frustration over the slow progression and lack of meaningful customization options. Overall, the consensus is that the game heavily relies on grinding, which can detract from the overall enjoyment.

    • “The first few times it's fun, I suppose, but if I'm paying to avoid things that are deliberately tedious, something is wrong.”
    • “Overall, I have enjoyed this game, but it is all about grinding. It's very repetitive; I have used it to turn off my brain when I needed to.”
    • “- It takes forever to level up, and grinding the same courses I've already played over and over again for several years doesn't make for very intriguing gameplay.”
  • monetization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization model of the game features numerous in-game purchases and microtransactions, which some players perceive as a cash grab. However, many users report that it is possible to progress and reach max level without spending money, as coins are easily earned, and the game does not include overly intrusive ads. Overall, while monetization exists, it does not significantly hinder the free-to-play experience.

    • “It's okay, it's free, that's why I recommend it, but there are a lot of in-game purchases.”
    • “Yes, it has microtransactions, but unless you really cannot wait to advance, you can quite easily play for free. I reached max level without paying a cent.”
    • “Microtransactions are present, but coins are easy to earn.”
    • “It just seems like a cash grab to me.”
    • “Microtransactions (pro rider is a waste. Coins are easy to earn. Cross country should've been implemented a long, long time ago.)”
    • “Yes, it has microtransactions, but unless you really cannot wait to advance, you can quite easily play for free; I reached max level without paying a cent.”
  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received largely negative feedback, with users noting poor graphics and significant lag, particularly on platforms other than Facebook. While it runs smoothly on Facebook, players on other systems, especially Windows Vista and 7, experience performance issues, making it feel unoptimized overall.

    • “The game runs smoothly and is entertaining.”
    • “It is only recommended for Windows Vista and Windows 7 OS and has been optimized to run from Facebook only.”
    • “The graphics aren't the best and are not at all optimized.”

  • emotional
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The bond formed with the horse adds a personal touch, intensifying the emotional journey, especially during pivotal moments in the narrative.

  • humor
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the humor in the game to be lacking, with one reviewer specifically noting that the awkward graphics, such as a poorly animated horse's tail, detract from the overall comedic experience. While some suggest it may still be worth checking out, the consensus is that the game does not deliver strong humor.

    • “Now, this is about as good a place as I can think of to mention the one flaw in the graphics: that horse's tail looks so awkward it isn't even funny.”
    • “And the funny thing is.”
    • “It is at least worth a look-see in that case, but funny enough.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, including frequent bugs and lag, particularly affecting the jump animation and sound functionality, which detracts from the overall gameplay experience.

    • “Super buggy and laggy jump animation makes getting a good jump almost impossible.”
    • “The game is plagued with bugs and has no sound.”
  • replayability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players note that while completed courses can be accessed by the public, the current lack of additional playable content diminishes the game's overall replayability. Many feel that the premium subscription does not provide sufficient value for the limited replay options available.

    • “I would be very happy to support the game with my money if there were more playable content, but as it is right now, I don't think the cost of being a premium rider is worth it in regards to what you gain from it.”
    • “Completed courses are playable by the general public.”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally well-received, with some users finding it amazing, while others consider it merely okay. Overall, it contributes positively to the gaming experience.
