I think needs to understand Horse Life 2 is the first part do not know, I could, even without the experience by playing the game well. The story of the game is rather boring, a girl visits her uncle on the farm, learns that she gets paid a foal, which they did not set up and educate themselves, as in some other horses games. After three years, they come back and the horse is perfectly educated. Now they have to train, ride, care for the horse and feed, muck out the stables, stroking it in the pasture and feed and participate in tournaments. Over time you travel to the US after you will come back a horse seriously ill and you have to raise money for an operation, by traveling to Greece and participate in a Grand Prix. Before the story starts you can choose between three horses Breeds: Arabian, Anglo-Arabian and Selle Francais, which do not differ through appearance. The only difference is that you can choose a mottled coat color in Selle Francais. Gender can also determine, hence the name. Initially one everything is explained how to brush the horse and which building where is. Unfortunately, the show jumping and dressage was not declared, and if you do not plan comes by itself or gets to checking the booklet, you have no idea what you're dealing with the dressage. The jumping is but it is easy to understand. There are four tournament categories: jumping, dressage, cross country riding and versatility. In the latter you only have the first three headings ride again, which is sometimes quite annoying. In the dressage, it is really boring, because the computer practically does everything by itself, only when the clapping of the audience is loud and a white border appears on the screen you have to set the mouse buttons click in the right order. I very quickly lost patience and momentarily no longer played. When maintaining the horse you also need strong nerves, because after every time riding or riding tournament, part of the maintenance status is less, just as it is with the heart status, which you can fill up only bring with rides or out to pasture. So you have to quite often brush, which I did not feel personally and had just refilled food quickly. Here you do not need as long as the cleaning and the maintenance status fills quickly. The landscape in the riding is lovingly decorated, here and there you can see rabbits, cows and sheep, but the way you can not leave and free ride through the terrain. There are different types of rides, for example, that where you have to shoot a village or a deer. There is also a farm shop where you can buy for you and your horse. The prices are cheap, get the rewards you for a successful tournament. Gradually, you get more and more horses: a Mustang that you get in the US, because your horse is not mitgereist. This home is still there. Furthermore, a Palomino, (unrealistically) a unicorn and a zebra, and yet another that you get while your own is sick. Unfortunately, there is in the game two fatal errors: It was several times so that the horse at the beginning of the hack or terrain ride, without that I would have determined any direction, began to run to the left, so that it always ran in circles. But if you want to ride anyway you have to hold down the right arrow button pressed the whole time, which is pretty strenuous. The second mistake is when one has visited the United States and all the tournaments that you had to ride there has completed, you should really get back home, but that did not happen. You can do whatever you want, restart the game, all tournaments ride again, it's no use. You have to start the game. Once me is the annoyingly already happened. All in all it is a nice game, reasonably good graphics, beautiful horses and a lot of characters which, although always the same thing to discuss with you, but. I recommend it, aged 9- 13 years old. Have fun playing;)
