Customer Reviews

This game is not worth your money or time.1
I received this as a gift some time ago and finally decided to try it out. Since you steer your horse with the arrow keys, and also determine its speed with arrow keys, it is very difficult to move with any speed through the courses. If you don't slow to a walk, you'll end up running into the rails, barriers, etc. They don't tell you up front that the CTRL key is for jumping, and the left shift key is for the whip. You have to find the manual(pdf file), which is not even mentioned on the display for the game, or even the packaging on the one I got. I'll give them credit for interesting landscape graphics, but that's about it.

Is it...........5
Is it hard game or like is it hard to move the horses or exully i know that but is this game like fake place?

CTRL lets you jump1
Cheers; my daughter and I bought this and have been sorry ever since. The manual is on the disk, and only there can you find out that the CTRL key lets you jump. The graphics are distracting -- we found that if we changed the graphic settings to remove shadows and eliminate sophisticated effects it was less attractive but a little easier to steer the horse through the obstacles. Not worth all the trouble tho!
