Product Description
From Children's Software Revue®
Kids feel like they are really riding a horse in this new addition to the Barbie CDs. Not only is it the best horseback riding simulation available to children, but it's also the best of the Barbie titles released so far. After signing in at the Riding Club, kids pick one of four horses who are waiting in the stables. After choosing names for their horses, children can head out to the trails, or stay and feed, groom and saddle their ponies.
The program includes some nice options that keep things interesting. A bulletin board in the stable posts Adventure Missions. Children may be asked to find a key or other object hidden somewhere on the trails, or to follow a series of clues that lead to a wild horse. Testers enjoyed the flower-sequencing and apple-sorting games but had trouble with a frog-hopping activity in which they must clear a path by jumping frogs over each other. The best part of the program is riding the horses. Using the mouse or keyboard, kids can easily ride fast or slow, stop, jump over objects and steer to the left and right. A map takes them directly to points of interest on the trails, or kids can ride at their own pace to their destinations. Once in a while, one of Barbie's riding buddies challenges children to race. Depending on how fast kids ride, they'll win a first or second place ribbon. Older children enjoyed going on the missions and the younger testers loved to ride and race their horses. The theme of a secret wild horse was very appealing to all, and kids were thrilled when they had a chance to spot it. Aside from wishing for a few more grooming options like mane and tail decor for their horses, testers ages three-to-eight loved the program and played it repeatedly.

This game i think is fabulous. The graphics are great because how many games have you played on when you're riding a square horse? This is not one of them. Everytime you play you find new things that you have missed before. Ride on your very own dream horse out of: a palamino, a paint, a white and a dapple grey horse all with their own personality. Ride on beaches, forests, over bridges and even on mountains. Feed and groom your horse. Suitable for all ages.

I am currently 16 going on 17, I loved this game so much when I was younger.
I wasn't horse mad but I think this game gave me more undersatanding towards animals and how to care for them.
The game gave you lots of Trails to ride through, which also gave you little tasks to do on the side to keep you from getting bored.
#1 - Rabbit Run
#2 - Rainbow Falls
#3 - Turtle Rock Run
#4 - The Old Bridge
#5 - The Well
#6 - The Cottage
#7 - Apple Alley
There are levels throught the whole game, but it doesn't tell you when you're getting towards the end of a level. You have to find out where 'The Cottage' is etc, and you need to find hiden pathways to get higher up on levels. You have several incounters with the 'wild horse' which I did find really exciting. I was very sad when I had completed the levels and the game had ended.
You can answer or call your friends to race them on a beach or anywhere of your choices listed. The graphics are beautiful not like you get anymore, yes it is 2D but anyone my age will remember how amazing it really was.
I am going to purchase it again for my youngest sister who is 8 and I hope she will love it as much as I did. Hope I helped. =D
