Horse Life 2

Summary
Horse game for kids.

Gameplay
The player chooses a horse at the beginning and gets to see it born. After a timejump, the horse is ready to be ridden. Besides taking part in competitions, you have to take care of the physical and mental well-being of the horse. The story takes place in different parts of the world.

Riding Mechanics
Arrow keys to move, space to jump. Each jump must be approached in the right gait and space must be pressed when in the green zone. Dressage is played by pressing the right and left mouse key when prompted. It plays like a very simplified version of Ride! Equestrian Simulation from the same developer.

Differences between Releases
The game is referred to as "Horse Life 2" in the manual of the PC version, but "Horse Life 1" seems to only exist as a Nintendo DS game. In the German version, there is no mention of Ellen, but Mr. Whitaker is still called that.
