Gotta be honest, buy the PC version.

Since this game is not just on the DS, and it was translated rather badly for it... save your time and money. Buy the PC version. It isn't the best horse simulation game by far, but it is still better than most of them.. the graphics are decent, and gameplay is at least plausible. Both my daughter and I had fun with the PC version, but based on reviews and some test plays on the DS version, couldn't justify the expense of the game to make the horseyness portable. As most games, all versions of this game seem to be marketed mostly at preteen girls that will never have any real life horse experience, which makes the games less than thrilling for those who actually have been around the real thing for any length of time. However, for the most part, this one at least is fairly fun, and the horses even look like horses. Most of the unlocking seems to be for cosmetic upgrades - clothes and such.. and there's virtually nothing in the way of horse care involved.. but overall, better than a lot of games I've tried about horses on the PC. Again, steer away from the DS version.. far away. If you need a dose of horseys on your DS ... get Horse Life.
