 Great for 5-year olds December 10, 2006

My 5-year old daughters have played this game for months, and they can't get enough. It took a little while for them to get used to the keyboard controls, but once they got the hang of it, they play this more than anything else. After "solving" the game countless times, they still love to dress up their horses and decorate the pavillion.
The puzzles are challenging enough to make them think but aren't so difficult that they get frustrated.
Fun for beginners! December 31, 2005

My 4-1/2 year old got this for Christmas and she just loves it--so do I! It is quite cute with many mysteries to solve, it gives great early computer experience and has several games within. Of course it has the Barbie clothing changes, horse color changes etc. that add that fun Barbie touch that girls love. I thought the horse was very realistic, she gets on and off and jumps too! Great introduction and fun for the early "gamer"!
 The good or the bad? December 27, 2005

My mom got this for my sister for Christmas, and right away she wanted to play it. My mom got it, thinking that I could help her, since I LOVE horses. (I don't just love them, I LOVE LOVE them!) Riding through the trails, leaping over jumps, it's all good, but it was kinda easy. Okay, here's my reveiw:
THE RANCH: I liked herding the calves the best
THE FOREST: I personally liked herding the goats the best. The campsite is kind of boring, and so is the flower mill.
PRAIRIE TOWN: I liked this second best. Nestled in the canyons, Prairie town has only a few stores. I like the General store, because you get to herd the chicks back into their crate first. Other than that, the other things are okay.
DESERT GARDENS: I liked this too, because you get to race against a girl on a pretty grey/white horse! But that's all I like about it.
And at the end, Teresa, Lucky's owner, gives Barbie a special surprise; Luckys tiny foal! Although you can't ride her, you can brush her, feed her, and visit her anytime you'd like. You don't get to name her, so my sister and I called her Lucky Bellamey, Bell for short. After that, you can just ride around and have fun. I guess I think this game is more good than bad, but that might be because I LOVE LOVE horses!

For $20 I thought this would be something a bit more. The "adventure" is a bit boring and doesn't change much each time you play it. The navigation is quite poor compared to other games. Plus there's quite a bit of stutter on some of the vocals (I run a fairly fast machine with 768MB of RAM so I know it's not that). All in all, three stars may be a bit much, but my daughter likes it and I guess that's all that counts.
