This title is misleading. This is not a little kid game. It has a lot of depth and you won’t finish the game quickly. At 270 hours logged, I still had four more wildlife animals to find and lots more of the game goals to complete. It helps a lot to get the Luck Set accessories and put them on your horse to get the last wildlife animals and coins. There are really no ponies in this game either. You start by purchasing a full grown horse that is ready to ride and then work on strengthening the horse for trail rides, photographing wildlife, and horse races. The horses were done very well. There are a lot of nice looking horses to pick from and a lot to do with the horses throughout the whole game. If you want to play only a little each day, then just get one horse. If you want to play 1-3 hours a day then get 3 horses. You can adjust how long you play by how many trails and activities you do with your horse(s) each day. You could even play more than 3 hours per day if you do extra things with your 3 horses. The game plays very well in all aspects. I do wish you could get money when you retire a horse to a career. I would rate this game a solid 9.5 out of 10. ----------- Languages ----------- You can choose what language to play this game. Languages include: English, French, Italian, Dutch, Spanish, and Norwegian. ----------- Graphics ----------- Graphics are good and very real-life. Trails include swamps, farms, mountains, trails by fields, and others. Use stylus to swing around for all camera views. -------------- Buying a horse -------------- You will start off by purchasing a horse. You begin with 230 coins. There are six horse breeds plus a custom design-your-own horse to choose from. Each breed of horse will present you with 3 horses to choose from. The 3 horses will also change colors or markings so check back off and on to see “new” ones. The custom create-a-horse lets you choose all markings and body features from all the breeds. You can mix just about anything. After you name your horse he/she is put into the stable. ----------- Activities ----------- In this game you take care of up to three horses at a time and take them on trail rides to find wildlife animals, shells, and coins. There will also be a few randomly scattered blue boxes to find that have various items in them. To find a box, click on it with your stylus. When you see an animal, click on it with your stylus to take a picture of it. Some are out easy to see and some you won’t see but will be behind trees or other objects. Shells and coins will sometimes get stuck in their hoof for you to pick out and add to collections. You will also be collecting sets of horse equipment for your horse to wear such as saddles, blankets, bridles, and others. This game has a good assortment of accessories. Most of these you can buy at the store when they come available or if you are lucky you can find them in blue boxes on the trail. You can also design up to 3 custom designed blankets and 3 custom designed quartermarks. You will need to strengthen each horse you purchase (or design) to enable them to open up more riding trails and be strong to win in the horse races. Most trails will require that you find small black gates while riding trails. Galloping your horse on trails will make it stronger faster but many animals that usually would be out will not appear. You will need to brush, wash, and maintain your horse’s hoofs. You will need to feed your horses their favorite food. If your horse gets sick, you will also need to have items to cure the sickness. Care items, medicines, various food, and wearable horse items are for sale at the store. Move your horse from the field to the stable to wash/brush/do hoof. Move your horse to the field to cure illnesses and feed them a treat. Horses will also perform tricks for you while they are in the field if they are clean and not to tired. ----------- Money ----------- Earning money is a challenge. Each day one of the trails will have a star on it (only one per day even if you own more than one horse). Take your horse on this trail. You will be told what task needs to be done and what amount of money you will receive. Each day you can also do three chores for a varying amount of money. The blue boxes you see along trails may have a little money in them. The best way to get money is to finish a set of wildlife and also to finish collecting a set of coins and shells (you may get money or items). There is a trick to getting more money after you donate a horse. Do all your chores and go back and get your payment for the day. If one of the chores was a chore for the horse you are donating then donate the horse. Now a new chore slot for each chore relating to the donated horse has opened up in the daily chores because the horse is no longer in the game. Finish the new chores and go back and receive more payment. You can repeat this again if you are donating another horse and have chores related to that horse. ----------- Donating ----------- After you purchase (or design a custom horse), you may also donate that horse to the Pony Club (races) at any time. You will not have your horse again and you will not get any money. This does open up a slot to purchase or design another horse and helps complete your donate horse game goal. Four donated horses will get you all four medals in this goal (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Bonus). You can not donate your horse if you only have one. The donated horse may or may not show up as one of the other horses on the race track when you race one of your other horses. ----------- Retiring ----------- Eventually, you will be able to retire your horse. You will need to have obtained the complete Speed Set (to win all races), the complete Style Set (to get level five style rankings), and have level five fitness (by opening up all the trail rides with that horse). You will then be given the option of retiring your horse into one of four careers. The careers are: Police Pony, Show Jumping Championship Pony, Hollywood Pony, and Circus Pony. You won’t see your horse again and you won’t receive any money. This does open up another slot to purchase another horse and gains a medal in the retire horse game goal. Four retired horses will get you all four medals in this goal. =========================== | Detailed Menus | =========================== =========================== Start Menu =========================== ------------- |Start Game:| ------------- You will see a scrolling view of a farm and afterwards a video of two horses running in a field.

Since the line sets are displayed on the top screen there is no way to click on them to read their names. Below is a decent attempt to match the actual wildlife in the game with the exact location of the same wildlife displayed in line set icons. I have used actual names & colors of the wildlife in the game over the colors in the icons. The birds were particularly hard so you may see some names missing and just the description of the display icon. If you see a name with info then it is accurate but I may have placed it at the end of that list with --- but am unsure of where it fits in the icon display. Summary: All names and info relating to the name is correct but may not be in the same exact display line set order. Be assured that if you are looking for a specific wildlife animal that the name, location and all other info listed will be correct. Note that games may vary and the same animal will appear in more than one location. This info is listed as appeared in my particular game. I also verified and compared wildlife randomness with others that were also playing the game to be as accurate as possible. Remember that it is not possible to see all wildlife at the beginning of the game as they are unlocked as you progress through the game. Animals usually travel along designated paths and appear one place in the morning and another place later in the day or night. Some animals only appear at a certain time. Be patient and keep tapping all over as you ride. If the screen starts to zoom in then don’t move your stylus and you will usually get the picture but not always. Some animals are out in the open to see and some are hiding behind objects and will only be photographed by touching that object. If you see a tree shaking, wait till you get close and then touch it. It may be a bird or an insect. Click the animal fast. Use your camera angles all around. Birds can be high in the air or low on the ground and can suddenly appear zooming beside you coming from the front or the back. Craning the view behind you on each side can get you some animals that sneak past and behind you but limits seeing an animal that may have passed you directly in front of you on the trail. Ride trails more than once a day because the trail resets every time you start riding it. Trails can also change due to the different horses and what accessories the horse is wearing. Small blue boxes can be anywhere - in the air, hidden in trees, tops of buildings, over edges. Good Luck and have fun! Morning: Midnight to 6am (sunrise/sunset icon) Day: 6am to 6pm (bright or cloudy sun icon) Night: 6pm to midnight (stars icon) Note: It will always look light outside while riding but may have mist at times.

The coins you spend come from your daily chores, doing sets, & blue boxes. Coins: Four lines of four coins each = 4 sets First Line Set: dark gray/antique coins Second Line Set: yellow/gold coins Third Line Set: light gray/silver coins Fourth Line Set: brown/copper coins Shells: Four lines of four shells each = 4 sets First Line Set: small combo shells Second Line Set: fan style shells Third Line Set: conch style shells Fourth Line Set: variety shells Note: You are not told the names of the coins and shells. I am not putting detailed descriptions of the coins and shells because of this plus the fact that you can see the silhouette design of each if you look in the collections. They are randomly found on the hoofs of your horses. You will only clean one hoof of each animal after riding the horse on trails or in races. Brush off any mud. You may see only rocks/stones or if you are lucky, you will see a coin or a shell. Use the pick to pick off the rocks, coins, and shells. Any coins and shells will go directly into your collection with a comment announcing you have found a rare coin or shell if found. Always pick off all rocks/stones until the hoof sparkles - some coins look like stones. You don’t have to care for the hooves after each ride but you could if you wanted (usually 3-4 trail rides is good). Be sure to care for hoofs and make sure your horse is clean before you put it back in the field for the night. It does seem that your horse will pick up more rare coins/shells if you gallop at least some on a trail but I have still found a lot while just walking. You don’t have to gallop the whole trail unless you want to. When you complete a set you may be given money or a nice item. It is definitely worth it to complete all sets. It will be hard to get the last coins but just keep riding continually and a lot. I usually take each horse on every open trail it has unlocked each day (3 horses = 3 times on each trail per day) but you can go at your own pace. ----------- | Stable: | ----------- Pick one of three slots for the horse you want to work with in the stable. If the slots are all blank, you must go to the field and move a pony into the stable. ----------- Ride ----------- This takes you to the trail rides, Pony Races, and Store Icons which have already been covered. ----------- Accessorize ----------- This lets you accessorize your pony with items you have bought or that have been given to you. Each accessory category lets you view accessories on your horse before you choose them. Remember this will not be a full list unless you have bought and been given every accessory. Accessories may be listed by the order in which you bought or received them. You may also create up to three custom blankets and three custom quartermarks for free using the Editor under the custom blanket & quartermark options. Accessories may be given to you when you complete any set, find them randomly in a blue box, or on very rare occasions get them by completing daily trail tasks. When you are further into the game you may get a pink saddle from clicking on a red tractor while trail-riding. ----------- Pony Care ----------- Most activities you do will give hints & tips on the top screen of your DS as you do them. This section is no different. Pay attention to the tips given and follow the directions. Be sure to brush slow and with the hair. Complete each activity until you see sparkles. Watch your horse’s body signs. When done, check the Info Icon and look at the brush slider bar - it is best if it is all the way to the right which means your horse is clean. If you are in washing mode and an item enlarges & dings but is not colored in then it means that you are out of that supply and need to go buy some. You can immediately go back to the stable icon and choose ride and go visit the store to buy that item. When you get back into the washing mode again it will begin where you left off but the dinging item should be colored in now providing that you bought the right supply. If items are colored but don’t ding & enlarge then it means that you do not need to perform that task this time. For example, if you go into washing mode with a brushed only horse then the shampoo will ding and then the conditioner will ding but the flybot will not ding unless your horse has flybot. You usually start out the day riding your pony (trail task & a few trails) and then come back to the stable. Care for hoofs and groom horse and then ride another few trails and care for hoofs and groom horse again. Repeat this process until you want to stop or the horse is tired (frown face slider bar). Then bring your horse back to the stable and care for hoofs, groom, and then wash, condition and treat any needs. The horse should be clean and tired now. Move the horse to the field and feed, treat any flu or stomach illness, and pet horse to raise friendship if needed. You can ride a tired horse but it increases bad health slowly. It is better to have more than one horse if the first horse is always tired. Body Signs: Good - horse turns head towards you, horse squints or closes eyes Bad - horse stomps, rears, shows teeth, flicks tail a lot, shakes head Grooming: Brush main body Brush mane Brush tail No equipment to buy. Washing: Shampoo your horse Condition your horse Flybot treat your horse Buy shampoo and conditioner daily for each horse. Buy flybot treatment for each horse as needed. Hoof Care: Brush mud off hoof Pick rocks/stones off hoof Treat any sores Buy hoof ointment if needed for each horse at store. ------------- Move To Field ------------- This will move your pony from the stable to the field. The field is where you should keep your pony overnight or for long periods of time. It is important to have your pony clean (brushed, washed, & hoof care) before you move them to the field. If they are not cared for and clean they will get sick. If any pony is sick in the field it will quickly spread to the rest of the ponies in the field. Sickness left untreated will get worse quickly. It costs a lot of money to cure horses so keep them clean - unless you are trying to quickly get the Pony Nurse game goal medals - but be prepared to spend a lot on medicines. Click on the name of pony to check its stats or do field related activities with the horse. Call Over: The field is also where you give medicines, feed your horse, increase friendship with your horse, and watch them in the field. Click the Call Over Icon to begin. Feeding your horse may or may not be a challenge. A horse may not eat if it is unhappy. Sometimes the horse eats the food but not quickly enough. The food will disappear and you will get hearts around your horse but it will not count as being feed and will actually lose friendship with you. To make sure the horse is really feed you need to quickly get its favorite food out of the bag on the right(after you called horse over) and put it near its muzzle. The horse will hopefully raise its muzzle and start eating the food. If the horse gets done AND YOU SEE THE HAND ICON again before the hearts appear then it should have counted as being feed. It may take a little to do it quick enough but just keep trying. No food will be lost if it didn’t work but the friendship probably went down so just pet the pony successfully a few times to bring the friendship back up. The horse’s favorite food is shown next to their name in the Info Icon. Medicines (flu & stomach) are given the same way as feeding favorite food but will come from the left bag and are easier to give. All medicine and food need to be bought at the store. Petting your pony will increase friendship. Call the horse over and place the stylus next to but not on the pony’s head. Move slowly if it is a new or shy horse. Move the stylus between the horse’s eyes and ears and move with your hand with the movement of the head of the horse. Soon you should see hearts float up from around the horse. If they are not broken hearts then you did it right. You may also pet the neck. Touch other areas on the horse to make it turn slightly to the left or right. When your horse decides to go back to the field it will stretch its head low to you &/or bow to you and then trot off if it likes you. If the friendship is low it may just trot off. You can repeat petting as many times in a row that you want. Use the hearts slider bar in the Info Icon to check friendship levels - best if it is all the way to full heart on right. Perform Trick: Ponies will perform tricks in the field if they are clean, happy, and not tired. The more fitness, style, and speed your pony has then the more advanced tricks your pony will perform. Tricks don’t appear to make the pony tired. Info: This shows the complete stats of each horse including awards - this info was detailed above. This is also where you can donate a horse.
