it was ok |
| Love from New York City , New York, America says (20/Apr/2003): |
it was ok. but the game is too short and apparently not that excitin as the other games i played. its very borin and i never thought it was this unexcitin. i am a very big fan of mary kate and ashley and i like to buy their stuff and i guess only this time i think i bought a wrong thing from them.

O.K |
| A gamer from australia says (31/May/2003): |
i find this game ok. while jumping you should at least go into 2 point position and you name your horse expecting it to be a male and they say its a female. they should let you choose what gender it should be.if i put my horse down as a gray,it comes out as a black or other. during dressage they tell you to do a half pass but dont tell you how. but other then all this , the game is ok.

pretty good |
| Alison from Colorado,USA says (5/Jul/2003): |
Well... the graphics are pretty bad and I wish you pick the breed of horse as well as the color. Also I think you should be able to choose to ride western or english, at least that would make the game longer. And clothes for ribbons?! Idiotic! The grooming is so boring and inaccurate. But, overall I think this game is O.K.

Not the best |
| Emily from England says (30/Jul/2003): |
O.K. So you doget to ride a horse but do really get choice of the horse you are riding?..........NO!The graphics could of been a lot better and the grooming is rubbish!On the list of things it says paint hooves then pick hooves is this the right way round?It alright for begginers though.
|
It could be worse. |
| Mel from Gosford, Australia says (18/Sep/2003): |
Well, I bought my copy for twenty bucks, so I assumed it wasn't going to be, like, the best game Ive ever played.Parts of it were cute, and I liked the cross-country course...I know people on here are complaining about the graphics, but personally I think they are reasonable for a playstation one game.
It was a bit easy, and unrealistic but as I am an equestrian myself my perception may be a bit altered...its more for people who don't know about horses.I liked it about as mucha s I like Riding Star.
Loved buying the clothes though.Hell yeah!!

Imagination |
| Krystal from MI, USA says (3/Oct/2003): |
I love the game. I do think it could be better, but I mostly use the game as a stress reliever. Like many people, Mary-Kate and/or Ashley talking to you all the time does get pretty annoying. If you have a good imagination, you can play this game for hours and never grow tired of it. I do, however, give this game max. stars, but only in my small little oppinion.

It's brill |
| Sallie Thomas from Telford, england says (21/Oct/2003): |
Amanda what r u talking about it may not be realistic but it's a really fun game and it's cool bringing in other things like shopping in my opinion ur to serieous get a grip. If you like this game then youll like Riding star and Equestriad 2001. The only bad thing i have to say about it is the way they go on at you when your riding.
Another brill thing is the free ride, its not just about competitions.

OK game |
| A gamer from Rochester, NY, USA says (7/Nov/2003): |
This game is pretty good. It should have more graphics, though. The combinations on the jumps should be alot harder. And it should have a bigger variety of horses. Also, the levels should be harder, and there should be alot more of them, too. Other than that the game is pretty cool.
|
OK game |
| horsecrazy2010 from Rochester, USA says (9/Nov/2003): |
It was a pretty good game. The courses are a little too easy, though. It should be much more realistic. Also I don't think anybody over 11 should play it though, they might get very bored. But the outfit choosing is pretty fun, though. I definitely rate this game a 6.

| Alice raywoow from Othery says (22/Feb/2004): |
iTS A BRILLIANT GAME BUT IT GETS REALLY BORING.I think when you get on to the harder levels it should have better clothes and better jumps and new horses .
It is ok for like 6,7,8 year olds but it is not for older kids.
I think mary-kate and ashley should make games for older people.
About boys and teenage lives.I think mary-kate and ashley should make games about real life situasitons. IT should have real pitchures of them on the games.I want to know as well the rating of the gameon the case because you want to know what other people think of it as well as your'e self.

Fair |
| Sethy from Pennsylvania USA says (27/May/2004): |
the game is fn but the graphics suk.come on .when you are grooming your horse and painting her hooves you're character starts painting off the hoof.otherwise the game is good.i like the competetions and show jumping.when my friend courtney comes over sometimes we play two player version.we play tag chase each other and run like crazy pretending someone is trying to steal our horses.sometimes we just run around in circle. if the horses could swim that would be great.i like going through water. i like finding secrets.here's some. in the forest world find the wishing well.you'll find a heart and you're horse will do a trick. cross the river and find the bridge to the island.there will be a treasure chest with a heart and the same old boring horse trick.pretty but used too much.island world.the easter island statures are located on a cliff.you will find a heart.Amazing!!!!there is also a corn maze that's fun and you get a heart.i found a platform that when you stand on a piece of rock a heart is shown but when you go to get it the door closes.you have to put pressure on the rock and move without taking away the pressure.i don't know how so don't ask.i would say a good game.

Its a fun game but...many things I don't like! and that is no fun! |
| Renee Thibeault from Casselman, Ontario, Canada says (28/Nov/2005): |
Well I think its a fun game but for one thing how come they don't tell me how to left(or right) half pass I always get disqualyfied because I have too many errors so I just don't get it. the second thing is that when you jump a double combanasion you can't go fast or else you can't make the seconde jump but if you go to slow you don't make the jumps at all and it takes up alot of time. I'm probably the most biggest horse freak on this planet!I'm 16 yrs and I'v been ridding for 13 years, I should know, but on the PS1 its a bit defferent. I think that they should tell you how to do certain things. LIke how to left(or right) half pass and give more hints on how to find all the ribbons in the free runaround island or forest. I'm not a fan of mary-kate and ashley and I'm glad you can create your own caracter(up to a point ofcourse).I was not to impressed by the graphics, yes the PS1 doesn't have the best graphics but this game on the graphics were bad, sometimes you had a hard time seeying what was ahead and around you. Its fun that you can also play 2 players but only in the free world, they should let us play 2 in jumping competision (one at a time but they should still let us). but thats all I have to say about this game and its my opinion well if you would like to contact me my e-mail should be displayed for others who haven't played the game have fun in any way you would like. see ya

I love this game, but there are a few things they missed... |
| A gamer from Sterling, USA says (6/Nov/2007): |
I like this game for many reasons. I have always dreamed of riding a horse (for real), and since that is impossible for me and almost anyone else, this game gave me the opportunity to half-experience riding and horse skills. Also, it's fun because after I figured out how to get a few of the ribbons from the adventure worlds (1 from Island World, 3 from Forest World), I felt proud of what I knew. But there are also a few things I thought could be improved:
1. In the dressage competitions, they will tell you that the gait is "half pass right" or "half pass left." They never tell you how to half pass either way, so I wind up with errors. (By the way, does anyone know how? I'd really like to know.)
2. In "Forest World," there is a lake of green stuff. It has a tantalizing island in it, but absolutely, positively NO way to get to it. I tried from every angle, every spot around it... but you can't get on it. It's literally impossible. The whole time, I kept thinking, "There HAS to be a way. I'm missing the 20-ribbon and this is the hardest thing here. It HAS to be on that island." I kept on trying and trying, until only recently I searched the Web for a secret about that island and the 20-ribbon. After finding an FAQ, I learned that it wasn't even on that island at all! They shouldn't have put it there. Actually, maybe they wanted to distract people from the real ribbon...
That's all the flaws I can think of. There could be one more that I'm blanking on, but that's pretty much it. And oh, one more thing - just because there are some flaws doesn't mean it isn't one of the BEST GAMES EVER! So keep playing - I still am!

ZZZZZZZZZZ...... |
| A gamer from Rochester, USA says (11/Nov/2003): |
Come on, how boring! They have the same jumps in all the levels and the riders down even go in the 2- point! Very unrealistic. I gave this game a 4. They should have more colors of horses or breeds of horses. And trading ribbons in for clothes? C'mon give me a break. I think people 10+ will get very bored of this game in a short amount of time. And in the dresage, in the higher levels, I always get disqualified because they don't tell how to do a half- pass. And the grooming, uh God! Who the heck brushes a tail from behind? How stupid! And I completed the game in less than an hour. It is too short.
|
what were they thinking? |
| danielle from Nottingham, England says (5/Apr/2004): |
i personally think the game was alright- but yes as others have said v.unrealistic. i mean beginners doing what..? 2ft jumps!also i think their idea of 'grooming' is pretty poor, say if a kid who had never been around a horse decided- hey ill go stand behind that horse like mary-kate and ashley, and got kicked! i think the game is more for wanna-be riders- cus if your like me and have experiance with horses youll spend the whole game yelling at the screen!also i think they should keep quiet while your riding-yes we know its you- were playing your game remember!?
i think they should try a PS2 version as for one i find it more enjoyable when the rider is more than a black smear on my TV screen!
in my opinion i think Mary-kate and ashley are to busy playing-'the perfect teenage girl' to care about the quality of their games.
i think i enjoyed the game overall as i dont think ill ever get my OWN horse, so this is probably as close as ill get. i wouldnt recomend this game to experianced riders.

very life like and brilliant for horsey lovers like me. |
| Vicki Stephens from Evesham,England says (29/Jul/2003): |
i think its one of the best ps1 games ever made. its not that life like i own two horses i should no.the only problem is they jump really strange. i also think that they dont do anothe horsey games for us. well not this good. another good game similla is equestriad. i love the idea of a free roam around as well.
i have one question for all people who make horsey computer games. why don't you make more?
why do they always call it a female it might be a male. and where the horse box.

| laura from england uk says (25/Aug/2003): |

This games rocks! |
| Antz Bradley from Blackpool, England says (3/Jan/2002): |
This game is great! Ace control plenty of options and of course the Olsen twins are on it!, why wait buy NOW!!
Hmmm.... (Editor)
|
Not good... |
| Sasha from Essex, England. says (31/Mar/2003): |
I'm afraid that although I love horses and thought this would be an exciting game, it was too childish for me as I bought a different game at the same time, also for the playstation and a horse one.
Winner's circle could be improved with more options and having it more realistic, the grooming is atrocious and sooo boring. The courses, however, are easy but I think it's more of a kids game than adults, age 12+, choose another game!
