Customer Reviews

Excellent game only a few bad points
As an adult gamer, I think this game was really fun and interesting.

It takes a while to get used to controlling the horse, but once you get the hang of holding the nunchuk and controller as you would the reins, it's really easy to control the horse.

Only bad point is that once you've mastered the controls there's not a great deal of challenge within the game as effectively all you're doing is steering the horse and getting the approach right, you don't control take off, over the jumps, which is a real shame.

I completed it within two days on the camera view because it was fun and addictive and am now trying to complete on the hat view, which is much more difficult, you just don't see those tight corners until it's too late!! which makes it more challenging.

It's a shame there's only course in the Elite level,the game seemed to finish far too soon.

The graphics are fab and there's plenty to do, even when you've completed. I don't like the mini games but I'm sure kids will.

Overall a fab game, I just wish there were more on the market and that you controlled the horses take off

Amazin game for the Wii!!
I ma 14 years old and this game is soo much fun!
I found it hard at the beginning to control the horse but after my dad showed me how to do it i got into it really well!!
The graphics are amazing prepared to my other horse wii game of Pippa Funell ranch rescue.
I love the fact they are like reins and that you have to win to get another course rather challenging with the tight corners with some courses!!
I would only say that i wish that they had a hat on when you first start the game you have to do that yourself if you wanted. As it says at the top when loading at one point all FEI shows all riders must wear a hat, when in the game you dont have to!
5 star game and a real fun for all, i got all my family doing it and it was many laughs watching my mum lose her way whn the arrows show you where to go !!
A must have for all horse lovers that have a Wii ! Of all ages!

Brilliant game for all horse lovers
I thought the game was fab! I am a horse owner and loved the idea of the game. Its fab how you can control the wii remote like they are riens and its very realisitic, the controls are hard to get used to at first but as soon as you get the hang of it your well away. I was gutted to find only one level on the elite level tho! but it was great fun to play!
