stability4 negative mentions
  • Deep and realistic horse breeding and dressage simulation with detailed genetics and varied horse personalities.
  • Developer is very active, responsive, and continuously improving the game with bug fixes and updates.
  • Engaging and unique training mechanics, and opportunities to manage breeding, training, showing, crafting, and farming.
  • Controls, camera, and interface are often unintuitive and inconvenient, especially on PC, reflecting its mobile origins.
  • The game is in early access with many bugs, repetitive quests, and unfinished features that affect progression and immersion.
  • Graphics and character animations are rough or unpolished, with some issues like clipping, lifeless NPCs, and empty world areas.
  • story
    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story offers a relatable equestrian dream experience with playful dialogue but suffers from bugs, clunky and repetitive quest design, and minimal NPC interaction, making progression frustrating and the open world’s plot feel flat over time. Overall, it feels unfinished and lacking clear guidance, detracting from player immersion and enjoyment.

    • “The game's storyline feels relatable and gives the player the chance to live the equestrian dream!”
    • “The quest dialogue is playful and emulates the beginning of the experience.”
    • “Took me a good 5 minutes to figure out what to do, needs better beginner tutorials and quests that are better explained.”
    • “The quest system is very clunky and unfinished.”
    • “Desperately needs NPC interaction instead of one-liner quest lines. It becomes a lot of ‘next’ and markers so new players can't tell which place the quest is referring to.”
    • “I just do not recommend it at the moment for the price as you cannot even get past that quest. It feels very early and unfinished, more like a demo. Issues include incomplete game borders where you can fall off the world, buggy horses in paddocks, and your horse sometimes disappears after putting it back, requiring you to refresh the location.”
  • gameplay
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay offers unique and complex riding and training mechanics with a good breeding system, appealing to fans of horse-related games. However, it currently suffers from bugs, repetitive loops, and some unintuitive elements, reflecting its early access, somewhat bare-bones state. Continuous updates are improving polish, but the open world and graphics still feel underdeveloped.

    • “Despite being in early access, I am yet to find a game with so many different mechanics and such a good breeding system.”
    • “It has complex riding mechanics (more than just WASD) that I really liked.”
    • “The gait and dressage mechanics are so unique and cool!”
    • “The gameplay loop feels a bit repetitive after several hours, and the open world feels flat in terms of plot.”
    • “There are bugs that need fixes; for example, the issue where putting your horse away after training requires the horse to have less than 20 stress, which did not work as intended.”
    • “There's very little gameplay available, and what is currently present is bugged and unintuitive.”
  • graphics
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics receive mixed feedback, with some praising appealing horse designs and smooth visuals, while others criticize flat environments, stiff character animations, and a generally rough or simplistic appearance. Overall, the visuals are seen as functional but in need of improvement to enhance realism and immersion.

    • “The graphics and horse style are appealing, with horses visibly changing shades when greying and mares looking pregnant.”
    • “If I could mix my favorite elements of that game (great realistic riding, fun lessons concept, graphics) with the more completeness of world and training goals of this game, it would be the perfect game in my opinion.”
    • “The graphics may not be the best but the core game loop is well done.”
    • “Graphics can be hit or miss with lovely environments but flat trees, and the human figure isn't overly realistic.”
    • “The visuals are rough and unappealing.”
    • “Graphics, UI, and animation definitely need improvement; character walking and running are stiff and slow.”
  • stability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game currently suffers from significant stability issues and bugs, including quest progression blockers, unfinished world borders, and buggy horse mechanics, making it feel like an unfinished early demo. However, the developers are actively addressing these problems through updates, offering hope for future improvements.

    • “It's super buggy and you can't get past the tractor quest because you can't pick up the tractor part that you're supposed to retrieve.”
    • “I just do not recommend it at the state right now for the price, as you cannot even get past that quest. Also, it feels very early and unfinished, more like a demo. There are issues with the game's borders where you can fall off the world. Horses in the paddocks are buggy, and sometimes your horse disappears after putting it away, requiring you to leave and return to refresh that location.”
    • “Definitely still buggy, but that's to be expected in an early access game.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game currently suffers from poor optimization on PC, with controls and GUI designed primarily for mobile, making it difficult to play. Users recommend waiting for further development and optimization before purchasing. However, there is optimism about future improvements and appreciation for the developer's efforts.

    • “I will likely come back to purchase this game when it has been optimized for PC and further developed.”
    • “I highly recommend waiting until the game is more optimized and fixed. I am really excited to see the game grow and improve; the developer has done an amazing job so far!”
    • “I have very little play time in the game because it is just too difficult to play on PC; controls and GUI are intended for the mobile version and have not yet been optimized for PC play.”
    • “I will likely come back to purchase this game when it has been optimized for PC and developed more.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the music implementation lacking, noting limited control options such as only being able to mute it from the main menu. Overall, the sound and music require improvement to enhance the gaming experience.

    • “The sound and music need improvement.”
    • “The music can only be turned off in the main menu, which is inconvenient.”
    • “There should be more settings for music and sound controls.”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game involves farming activities like harvesting hay and oats, expanding property with barns and paddocks, and managing horse care through vets and feed stores. Players also engage in tasks such as buying tack, riding clothes, imported horses, and going on trail rides, providing varied but repetitive gameplay elements.

  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game offers strong replayability, surpassing many higher-priced early access titles in terms of continued play value.
