Seemed like it was going to be an amazing game. HOWEVER, when it gets to the screen saying my horse is finally fit enough to race & that we should pick a race suitable to his skills it wont let me tap on anything. It highlights the fast forward a month thing & I'll tap it but then the tutorial lady keeps saying the same thing. I've already restarted my phone, closed/reopened the app & uninstalled/reinstalled the app. Dunno what else to do. Fix the freezing glitch and I'll come back & update.
Absolutely love this game. Only thing I'd improve is having the option to feed without having to train and to make the feed cost less horseshoes or have the option to use the money you win in the game. These aren't the be all and end all of the game though as you can still progress without that aspect. Definitely my favourite mobile,e based equine game
I thought it might be a bit complicated but while the stats for racing take some getting used to I'm thoroughly enjoying it! A small suggestion would be making the horses a bit more cosmetically appealing as well as having a few activities (grooming, petting etc) to pass the months by. Otherwise it's a great game!
Love the depth of the game, not really a horse racing fan but the game looked too good to pass up. Like the concept and this game is clearly made by people who know what they're doing! Also the TV style commentary adds some realism! Maybe add traits to individual horses e.g a horse with a "Timid" trait might lose races it normally shouldn't because it gets spooked and maybe add injuries varying from recoverable to career ending! Also a choice of jockeys with stats and synergies with horses!
Edited Review: I had some issues with a cash shop purchase that initially turned me off this game. After working with the devs and getting the issue resolved, I've been having a great time! I love that there's genetics and bloodlines, it adds a depth of realism that's so cool! I can't wait until my horses are good enough to enter some of the player races :) There's lots to learn and lots to do in this game, it's a lot deeper than some of the other 'Barn Manager' games out there.
There are obvious improvements that dont need mentioning because theyve been mentioned repeatedly. With that said, to those who claim Rival Stars is better - NO, its not, really cant even compare the two because this is so much better. The one shortcoming this app has is that they have been unable to implement all the necessary changes while still generating the same revenue. I write software and I find this goal isnt that much of a challenge.
Not bad. It is quite fast paced. Haven't spent any money and still a go to for making time pass. I would really like to have an option for different Jockeys to hire to ride your horses. Theres a lot to play with that - Maybe that would help offset some horses that have almost identical attributes. More tournaments and races specific for the level of the horse (rookie, amateur, professional) would make it a little more fun. Not counting the offline races that are a guaranteed win regardless.
Good game overall - it has the potential to be even better, in my opinion, if the following is worked upon: Graphics, more particularly the mane, tail and bridle (the latter which looks rediculous). Furthermore bringing in a 'customize jockey' option could be beneficial to game popularity. Adding a 'broodmare stable' where the player could actually use/race with the mares bred, since only breeding colts breaks the realism of it. Eager to see what the developers do next.
Truly it is a fun game, but it infuriates me when I continously get stuck on the HRMTV screen and can not go to my stables to tend my horses. I tried spending in-game currency or even racing in the races but it still will not let me go back! Please fix this, it is incredibly annoying and it is preventing me from enjoying this game. Plus, the menu doesnt even pop-up for me.
so buggy I can't even log in to start the game doesn't bode well if first things first I run into a problem right away. it keeps saying error and all I'm doing is signing in for the FIRST time that's right folks this would have been the first time signing in and the game can't even manage that. Developers what use is a game you can't play. Do better.
This game is in need of a help page. Breeding rights expire, seemingly without warning and you can pay real money for them. Buying extra stables is not explained well. Especially starting out, you don't need that many because you won't have good horses to breed with because the breeding rights will probably expire before your horses are at a high potential. It's not a terrible game, but I could have avoided several bad management decisions if I was properly informed without trial and error.
Your latest update with the changes to the online racing schedule has basically ruined an otherwise fun game. You've taken the random and realistic racing schedule and turned it into a complete clockwork schedule of log in to recieve points with no thought required. Once you revert back to a randomised schedule the game will again be great.
Besides the obvious (Not updating for almost a year) itsa good game. Wish it was rival stars in the fact that you could maneuver the horses and the art. But great for the fact that this doesn't cost an arm and a leg to see the genetics of their coats...
The graphics leave a bit to be desired. While the gameplay is quick and realistic, the horses all come out the same shades of mottled grey and brown. I have a horse that should have brown stripes but you can hardly tell. Even though the horses are 3D there is no expression, no differences between them all. No animation on the jockey silks. No sheen to the horses coat. Nothing. Its expensive to play.
Best racing game ive played to date! Excellent graphics and game details. Hardly noticed advertisements as they are small, at bottom of screen, and very non-intrusive. Another great aspect is u dont have to spend actual cash money in order to do well or progress in game. Keep up the great work please!
Sad excuse of a game no matter how much work I put into the game and a little money im ALWAYS never able to win. It's a really bs game that's taken over by pay to win cheaters and no ability to do anything about it. Not just that I can't win ONE single live race AT ALL. Would give more stars but no, fix the game and I might.
It keeps you busy with numbers and stats. There's no real game play and the races are soooooo long when the player would rather interact with their horses. It gets repetitive so it's a semi decent way to pass the time while I wait on my actual favorite game to refill lives, etc. Not a game I'd spend money on though.
Freezes sometimes, but when I close the game and reopen it it seems ok again. It froze last time I played and restarting the game or my phone wouldn't unfreeze it so I uninstalled and reinstalled. Hopefully I won't lose my progress having spent a fair bit on horseshoes!
It's a decent enough game as horse racing games go, but it would be nice to be able to feed the horse without having to train it first. I'd like to GAIN weight how I see fit not lose 10 lbs just to "gain" 15. it defeats the purpose of putting weight on your horse.
Really bad. Spent two weeks maxing out horses and buying in app boosters, yet horses cannot do better than third last. There is no way to keep playing without spending money because there is no way to even place in races. Even with full SS+ horses with multiple golden horseshoes. I dont even want to keep playing because for some reason, my horses are always worse than even the basic computer ones. Definitely do not recommend.
I love the game but on every device im losing pictures, or loading screens are overlapping to the next screen. the horses are replaced with a black screen. Would be 5 stars if it didn't happen every 5 minutes. will rate higher should this be fixed.
Great game, I like the breeding part though I can't quite get the dynamics of the traits and attributes, how to mix them up to breed a balanced championship horse. I would also suggest you make this on a higher platform (like PC) so that we can enjoy a more detailed and in-depth breeding/gaming experience. And one more thing, maybe you can make a game like this, but like, cockfighting? Again, great game kudos to you guys!
Game has a lot of potential..but the offline races are too easy and the online races are too difficult. Its always the same players with the same perfect Omega stats for that particular race, and considering that the breeding is based on bloodlines from random 'packs' they must be spending a fortune to constantly have the correct breeding traits to pass on. I get thats the reason they spend money, but hard to breed the right traits without having 50 or more bloodlines to choose from.
This app takes your money instantly from your account but doesn't even give you what you tried to buy!!! I can't even transfer money to that checking account because the minute I transfer it, it's gone and put on hold in my account so I'm going to have to get a new card!! I've emailed the support, sent multiple screenshots and explained my situation and he still wants some random "official" receipt number! I didn't even get receipts for these new charges, its instantly coming out of my account!!
The graphics are beautiful, but the mechanics of the game are tedious and you're left to kinda flail your way through it which would be fine if it wasn't such a drain on resources. Now, the reason for only two stars. I didn't mind watching ads for horseshoes, but after a while, I get the water sorting ad and it ALWAYS crashes the game. Doesn't matter that I'm tapping EXACTLY on the ">>" - I'm brought here to the freaking app store and then the game doesn't reload and my time has been wasted.
