60 of 91 · most liked firstI'm searching for THAT horse game like my whole life. A game, that is well programmed, has beautiful graphics, decent animations and first of all - a game where you can tell that the publishers actually have good knowledge about horses. Well ... this game clearly ain't it. I wanted to love it, I really did. But heres what I've got in 45 Minutes of gameplay: - while changing the graphic settings, the game split itself into two ♥♥♥♥♥♥ versions on each of my monitors?? - lagging camera -…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is not good enough. I will be doing a review on the game on my Youtube channel so feel free to watch that once it is live. This game is an insult to equestrians and horse gamers alike. With the horses, grass, and other terrain being bought from the Unity Asset store, stuttering gameplay and unacceptable rider animations, this game smells of cash grab. Pros: -Nice enough lighting -Solid character writing -Lovely character artwork and UI Cons: -Bugs -Gameplay stutters -Horse handles like…

unlabelledView post →Let me preface this review by saying that I believe this game could be great, if only the developers were interested in fixing the many bugs and issues in this game. Cons: * The character customization options are really fugly. * The coat colors leave much to be desired. You can't customize the markings, undertones, etc. Not all game and tail styles are available at first, which is annoying. A lot of the colors you can choose for the mane/tail look really unnatural as well. I prefer my…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It’s middle of the road for me, and not in the good way. What is going on…(A question I've asked too many times while playing...) Here is a short list of some of the other weird things I came across in the game in no particular order: • Turning controls are overly sensitive, while increasing or decreasing speed has a slight lag in response time. (Update 2: This is a continuing issue from pre-release) • The camera moves when the game lags. Game lag happens on two occasions, loading of an area…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Updated Review/More Criticism Game is extremely incomplete. Lag spikes for no reason, bugs every five minutes. Mountains are incomplete. I mean, just explore some and you'll see the inside of mountain assets that aren't supposed to be visible. Basically an asset that was culled incorrectly, and they kept the incomplete asset in the gameplay. HOW WAS THIS FINALIZED? How was this released for $20? Do not pay $20 for this game. Go purchase Windstorm, it's a much better horse game with much better…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really really like the gameplay and mechanics for this game, it feels really nostalgic but still innovative in some ways (like the grazing on grass, LOVE that). I do hope thuogh they keep updating the game further. It feel REALLY wonky in the movement and camera controlls. It's also VERY glitchy. I have several saves messed up by: - my horse rejecting all feedings and bugs the inventory and hotbar - my horse in underweight and will not gain or eat - my workers don't show up or work -…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As a horse person I was really looking forward to this game. I love being around horses and just the title hooked me. There were alot of gameplay things that just bothered me to a point of annoyance. Ask any riding instructor you dont dismount a horse like that. plus no western style options. I think the main thing was the really fast in game time clock combined with task list along with the decay factor. It took 3 in game hours to ride from the ranch to the carrot patch at a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →DO NOT BUY THIS GAME i bought it on sale, i liked the prologe but the game is compleatly differant, u reach level 10 bonding with your horse and thats it. thats the whole game, u cant make money after doing the first few quests so u cant progress, the story is lame, controls are bad, 99% of the game is mindless riding and looking at a map becuase everything is so far away from each other, game freezes often, do not buy

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Eh. Badly optimized and feels like an asset flip. The good: - the characters. ngl, muscle mommy, tsundere jackson and wholesome robbie are great. Thanks for giving me the option to awkwardly flirt with them all (please love me jackson). - the story is presented in a really fun way. it's crude, sarcastic and funny which I honestly appriciate! As a long time horse girl gamer (tm) it feels like an adult twist on the good old horse game formular. Also I love that my character is canonically…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There are better Horse Games out there! I do not recommend this game unless your just wanting to waste some time. The world is huge but empty, everything is ridiculously far apart with no real rewards or quests within the available town and nothing to break the same up the environments its the same old grass, flowers, trees and fields, no wildlife to be found anywhere while travelling between places. The horses cant swim which make crossing the small rivers frustrating and will sometimes jump…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is bad. A whole team worked on it, they worked on it for a good few years, they had time, feedback from players, resources, and what we get is a watered down game with half-baked features and terrible graphics. The good: • Lots of exploration • Interesting story • Interesting characters • Managing a stable • With the new turning mechanism, the game does play a bit easier. The bad: • Exploration has no goal. There is almost nothing to find and the buildings you do find…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Usually, I'm a very accepting person, but not this time. I do not reccomend buying this game at least in a current state. It felt like I was playing some free demo. The price on the game considering the quality of what's inside is inadequate. Just a couple examples: - The world is wast (not in a good sense) and empty, filled with basic assests and overlapping structures. Fences flying mid air, invisible rocks, your horse constantly stumbling on smth and won't go further. I wanted to feel at…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A decent idea, sadly the dev stopped the work on it after it reaching about alpha state of a game. It's so full of bugs that it's hard to get a hang on the story that's good for about half an hour in game and then being loaded with annoying and illogical quests and conversations. Feels like the dev is just milking his assets in all games over and over again.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a review as a horse person, if you aren't a horse person, you will not necessarily have these opinions. I don't want to be too harsh as I recognize this is not a AAA game and does not have a huge budget. And I will preface this with saying, that if you are desperate for anything horse related to scratch the itch, this might do that for you. With that being said, I am not that desperate. I am in the horse world, but I like to do horses 24/7, sue me. This game, for a horse person is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →To any other horse lovers like myself wanting to play a good graphics horse game (that Unreal engine had me hopefully excited), your going to be sorely disappointed. I only got an hour into the gameplay before I returned the game on Steam. The game controls and the intro turtorial are severely lacking in clarity, it took me multiple tries to figure out how to get the saddle onto the horse for riding. Once you are riding, the horse starts out so slow, I was shocked, and I had no desire to see…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't in good conscience recommend it. It's not without redeeming qualities, but I think that's only worth it if you're making your own horse game and want to learn from this one's mistakes. Good: - characters and dialogues are really funny - stable management and horse care are cool in theory Bad: - uses the subpar Horse Animset Pro for its horses (their legs are really wonky) - quite glitchy and bad user experience - open world has almost nothing to find in it - riding feels sluggish…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has potential if a little more effort and trial and error went into it. Ignoring the fact the game has so many bugs and glitches such as not being able to "explore freely" without there being invisible walls all over majority of the land, the barrel racing where the horse flys and idles with no way of getting out without having to restart the game, and the stable hands being a glitchy mess and glitching all over the place. The graphics and horse animations aren't terrible but could…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →What a disappointment. Enjoyable and funny at the beginning, but quickly becomes a "point to point", repetitive game. The story ends abruptly with no real ending or progression, we do a few short "races" and missions and are quickly left with "reach bonding level 10". This is a grind and becomes a chore very quickly, but if you push through it hoping to continue the story you will be disappointed. The story then ends, and all you can do is get a new level 0 horse and start over, not even…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A good game with a decent amount of things to do, however the activities themselves lack depth/development. Currently a shallow game, but decent for the first 24hrs of gameplay. Has potential
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really wanted to love this game. I grew up on the Pippa Funnell games, the most recent of which came out in 2007, and the first of which was titled 'Stud Farm Inheritance', with almost exactly the same premise as this game. I have now re-installed a Pippa Funnell game because, despite being nearly 20 years old, it's significantly better than this one. I know it's not a big budget release, but it's just not good. The horse's stats go down really quickly, it's not really explained how they…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was really rooting for this game, but there is not much good i can say. not to talk about the bugs, the terrible graphic and many mistakes with the horse. The game is lacking in so many ways. You can't even lead the horse There are no options to put the horse on grass, not without them walking out of the paddock, because you can't close it. They fact that you can only interact with one of your horses? i mean, why? The stable work is just so plain and there are just a major lack of stuff…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Had been looking forward to this game ever since I saw it due to the open, rebuilding/upgrading and bonding with the horse(s) so naturally I brought it as soon it came out. I was fully aware not everything is perfect or fixed upon first release so I played the game with an open heart. I had fun learning the mechanics and how to ride the horse while unlocking each function. While my gaming PC was sounding like an airplane engine which was understandable as it is open world after all, I have come…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I kinda liked it at first. so I finally finished a somewhat longer mission for my horse and when I got it, the game gave me the achievement " roll credits - finish all story missions" ?? I played 5 hours - they just became bored when writing or something because a lot of things didnt even have an ending in the story. dissapointed because there was potential...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While I enjoyed the story and the 'bonding' idea with the horses, the game is riddled with bugs and is poorly optimized. I wouldn't say my PC is the most powerful out there, but a game like this shouldn't require me to set it on the lowest possible graphics setting and still barely touch 40 fps. The game has a lot of potential but I can't recommend it in the current state. I would've loved to play more of it if it just ran properly.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →POSITIVE POINTS: - Being open world, we can discover the surrounding open world, so there are hours of exploration guaranteed. - We can complete tasks and participate in different competitions, such as cross-country running or show jumping. - Each horse has its own personality, and we will have to win it over by adapting to it, for example by feeding it its favourite food. - We must build a bond with our horse and gain his trust; if you are a horse lover you will appreciate that he has this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Starting off with a positive: the premise of the game is wonderful. Bond with your horse, take part in competitions, and there are plenty of colours to customise your horse with. However, the negatives: - controls are very clunky - camera lags and can make it difficult to control your horse when this happens - your horse can get sick and, while this adds to the realism of the game, it is ridiculous how many illnesses your horse can get and if you don't address it straight away (see next…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →as much as i want a good horse game this is nowhere near it, buggy, unfinished, abandoned by a company that just shills out literally any half idea of a game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I read the mixed reviews for this game, went ahead and bought it on sale and because it was animal week, and *still* was hugely disappointed. The game looks pretty nice, I enjoyed the horses, but, like some reviews say, you can only interact with your one horse. The game makes it seem like you can manage multiple, since it's a stud farm. Apparently, at some point you can have another horse to ride, but I didn't get that far. I got a second horse, in another stall - I can't seem to rename it…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →HORSES ARE WELL ANIMATED AND ACTUALLY HAVE PERSONALITY THEYLL WANDER IN THERES STALLS AND ACTUALLY GO EAT FOOD AND WATER, THERES ALSO LOTS OF Tack that you can pick from with color options along with hair, you just cant change face or eye color and its a bit of galloping around for quests so i recommend doing all challenges when you have a quest for them
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Seemed fun but then its just been bug after bug after bug. This CANT have been playtested much. You get past one bug, then its another. Terrible.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's neither good or bad, it has some good elements to it. but as an overall horse game its not the greatest and a lacking a bit. Like all horse games that are attempted they are always missing something I was hopeful for this game but unfortunately after playing if for a couple of hours it just becomes boring and you feel like your not really achieving much. For example there's not much to unlock accept for clothes and equipment and upgrades that only feature the basics of colour and style…

BUT please please try and update this game, its legit good, and i can see this game being so much better. Like i wouldn't pay 20+ for the game, so i buy it on sale cause THERE IS A LOT OF BUGS AND GLITCHES. Controls are still wonky and clunky but if you "ignore" that, its a fun game. slightly confusing as the step for taking care of a horse seem off in my opinion. The management is so dumb, like its stupid. It still wont…

The thing is I couldn't play it it's extremely buggy the graphics look like something from the late 90s no matter which settings you put it on. It made my computer trip out really bad I have games with similar system requirements and they run with no issue and look 10 times better. I saw the mixed reviews before buying this product so I waited to get it on sale. Because I was intrigued and I tried to give…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game seriously needs optimized. The motion blur cannot be turned off and the new update is causing my PC to crash now. The game itself is the perfect horse game concept it just really needs adjustments made to be able to play. *UPDATE* Setting your resolution to the highest hz will fix the motion blur. The auto save feature tends to cause a slight lag every time. Would be really nice to be able to turn that off or change how often it happens. The game is really cute but short and when…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As is I cannot recommend this game. I enjoyed the demo and prologue, however, in the full game after unlocking the vet your horse is ALWAYS sick. Even after doing the work around in the discussions he still gets sick whenever you close the shop, camera, customization, and map screen. EDIT: December 7, 2024 Played it again after a few months. The horse is still sick but I ignored it and was able to continue the game. Then I got to another point of it and realized the developer is using ai for…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I very cautiously recommend this game. Only if you're a die hard horse game fan. The game has about 3 hours of game play time if you're just hitting quest targets and very much feels more like an early access game than a finished piece. Pros: - I love the variation in coat types in the customisation screen! - The young horse girl gets sent to a ranch trope is very samey. However, I did enjoy the slightly different circumstances that this game provided. - I liked the customisation of each…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played this more or less when it first came out, and am now reviewing it at the one year mark. I had high hopes for this game, but it did not manage to live up to them. Pros: + flexible creation, though not the best + large world, it takes me more then 5 minutes to ride across it + more then just show jumping Cons: - Controls feel clunky(for the human its just bad at times) - world feels empty - Some characters feel stiff(like their voice is AI generated or something) - No real end game…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I struggled to get into this game, on premise it is interesting. In practice it is repetitive and clunky, the controls need work. It is buggy and requires more optimisation. It feels unfinished. If the game was updated I would be willing to re-review this review.,
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gameplay : https://youtu.be/t5hTDyTGMLc The Somewhat Innovative Gameplay Of A Ranch Management Game Centered Around Horses Is Refreshing. The Horse's Movements And Gestures Are Very Realistic. The Horse's Appearance And Accessories Such As Menko Are Abundant And Fun. The Occasional Humorous Elements Are Interesting.it Has Small Open World And Story.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Another animal-themed simulator from Games Incubator that doesn't have "simulator" in its name. Another proper production, with animations from the Asset Store, but we are used to games that are well made, but on a cheap budget. Probably all simulators look like crap, but we still like to play them and relax, right? I think the biggest drawback of My Horse is focusing too much on one horse and not using the full potential of the stud.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In all honesty was pretty let down by the finished product.. any content posted online by the developers up to release did NOT match anything in game lol. I did spend around 4 hours total in the game, and crunched down on majority of achievements, so with that experience I can say this isn't a long term game to play. There's not much to keep you engaged, and it's a lot of mediocre grinding.
