Horse Illustrated Championship Season

Summary
Unlock and take care of four different horses, explore the stable (including a radio, fridge and goat) and compete in dressage, show jumping and cross country events. Includes some educational videos and information about horses.

Game Design
More or less realistic. First person "slide-show" POV in the stable, top-down isometric for riding.

Gameplay
The player must walk around the stable and take care of the horses. The player can practice in a corral, but there are also showcases, and cross country courses.

There is also a scavenger hunt mechanic. Some things that can be found are pens, radishes, batteries, and a canteen. To find the items, the player must walk around the stable and open cabinets and drawers. There are interactive components in the break room, like trivia cards, and VHS tapes and a VCR that play actual horse instructional video footage when clicked. The actual instructional videos gave pointers on real-world scenarios, like keeping water available for horses in the cold, and hitching a trailer.

Riding Mechanics
The player can practice riding in the corral. The player must make the horse walk, trot, or canter, indicated on the screen with different colored dots. During showcases, the player tries to hit the dots at the correct speeds: walk on green, trot on yellow, canter on red.
