4.0 out of 5 stars Good game, but short...., December 31, 2008

This review is from: Barbie Horse Adventures: Riding Camp (Video Game)

This is an good game(despite it being Barbie).

There are 5 horses to choose from:
-Palomino
-Arabian(grey)
-Mustang(piebald)
-Holsteiner(Bay)
-Hanoverian(Black)

The only care tasks you have to do are cleaning the hooves, brushing, water and food. Unfortunately the actual task just shows you a video of Barbie doing that task. I thought that was a big downside of the game because I always liked the care part of horse games.

The game is a quest type game: You have no real story line other than earning ribbons in certain events(showjumping, racing, cross country and endurance). After that you can go talk to people all over the island and they will have tasks for you to do.

I do like the free roaming aspect of the game, your horse can even swim for a certain amount of time.

So really my only complaints would be the care portion, the horses walk(looks like a trot), and make it longer.

Good game overall.
