By the way, the screen shots you have up dont do this game justice. Im not even sure if some of them belong to this game. I havent found most of these areas and situations but I am only in the 3 star area so I hope they are. Being able to ride with others looks like fun, seeing the mare with the foal would be sweet and the area that has 2 horses in it looks more pleasant for the horses than the tiny stables. Yes we connected and got attatched to our horses.

This game is amazing. So good I lose all track of time whilst playing. The artwork is detailed and beautiful and the scenery runs smoothly. My kids and I want to live in this game its so breathtaking. I was farm raised and am experienced in all areas of horse breaking training and riding so the factual info in the game is refreshing as my kids are at least learning something real while they play. I like to click on my paddock and watch my horses frollick for ages. Have you ever thought of making a screen saver like that? I should like one if you ever do. I love being able to breed my own horses, though I'd like to see some of the more unusual breeds like the 5 beat gait of the Passo Fino or Peruvian Passo, the awkward amble of the standardbred, the dancing motion of the Morgan, Lippizzaner and the arrogant flounce of the walkers like the Tennessee Walker, Hackney and the Saddlebred, brought to life complete with their quirks in a sim like this. Please let me know if you make anymore and where I might get my hands on My Riding Stables 1. Have you ever considered doing a cowboy or similar theme? I have noticed, in my quest to find a satisfying horse sim, that everyone focusses on engish style, or jumping. What about a game for us born and raised stockworking, gymkhana attending, rodeo riding farm types. Hey if I had the smarts to make that happen I'd never mention it in an open forum, but since I dont, please feel free to pick any of these ideas up. Incidently a wild stallion that steals mares and adds lucky dip foals to your gene pool would be interesting. It would be nice to be able to breed, handle and monitor from the paddock. I was raised with horses free to roam the farm and stables were for sick horses, training a young foal to accept small spaces and a place to saddle up when it was raining before a muster. I found myself ignoring guests keeping my Horses in the paddock and having to put them all in the stables ( which can take all day) when I wanted to breed another one, handle, saddle up or check health and stats, but thats just me. Overall so far this is absolutely the best horse game i have found to date. There really are not enough horse games. Seriously. Please make more.
