Advantages: Very simplistic concept

Disadvantages: Far too difficult for the average 6 year old to get anywhere

My Horse and attempts to make you feel as though you own your own horse from the comfort of your arm chair. Although it sounds great in theory it fundamentally flawed. Even the most horse obsessed youngster doesn't want to sit in front of a tv screen repeatedly grooming in mid air. The whole experience is rather disappointing from that aspect. There are lots of great rides, jumps and even a world championship for you to participate in but these have to be unlocked and the only way to earn the money do this is to take care of your horse which means endless amounts of grooming. Both my daughters quickly grew tired of this.

Iit should be a great game but no one wants to pretend to groom a horse. OK we'll tolerate it once in a while to be able to do the fun stuff but overall this game was a huge disappointment.

Summary: Horse keeping for those without a paddock
