Let's Ride: Silver Buckle Stables Review

Let's Ride: Silver Buckle Stables is one of the better of the "Let's Ride" series of horse-related games.
Although it might say there are "20 different breeds," there is no difference in the size, shape, or conformation of any of the horses. It is more like 20 different colors. A good thing is that you can mix and match coat colors, mane colors, blankets, saddles, bridles, and even eye color. You unlock more coat colors as you move up in the classes.
The competition's are fairly easy to beat, but they do go up in difficulty as you move up in classes. The mini-games are also around the farm, but are basically the same as the competition games made to go around natural obstacles.
Finally, I do like the "quick play" of this game compared to most. You still have to bathe and brush your horse, but it is fairly quick, and feeding and watering isn't too bad either. Although you don't do some main things, such as pick hooves, muck stalls, etc, it does help in the aspect of being able to go back to the competitions quicker instead of doing everything around the barn for 5 minutes until you can ride again like some horse-related games make you do.
Overall, good game.

Let's Ride: Corral Club Review

I got this game for Christmas 2005. It was okay. Here's a total review of it.
Riding-
There only three places you can ride.
1. The Practice Ring- In this one you're suppose to be practicing. You follow these arrows around a bunch of barrels and this *DING* goes everytime you follow the arrow. I enjoy crashing around the barrels and riding at break neck speed around the corral.
2. The Competition- You do the same routine as the practice. Sometimes when you're going around the barrel a girl will shout "Yeehaw!" or something like that. If you win the competition the crowd cheers and a lady shouts "The Champion!" (she shouts something before that but I can never tell what it is because the crowd is cheering to loudly). Each time you go to a new competition the color of the barrels change. The course is always the same.
3. The Pasture
If you are expecting to be riding through beautiful spectacular landscape you will be crushed. All the pasture really is is a field with a fence around it and a pretty background. You can race around these barrels which is kind of fun. One good thing about the pasture is it gives you a different barrel course to try. My favorite part (even though this isn't why they created it!) is to ride at really fast all around to the outskirts of the pasture.
The Characters:
Horse- you can only have 1 horse and if you change his colors they always go back when you exit the game (I've tried it several times) so you'd better choose the color you really want when you click the new game button. The saddles are nice and so are the blankets but the horse looks so short. He looks like a big Shetland pony. The reins look like giant strings. It is fun to name your horse though and its also neat to see its foot print when it moves around (in the competition, pasture, and practice.)
The Rider- the rider is kind of nice. You can personalize her by changing her pants, boots, shirts, and hats. She never smiles though but always has this scowly expression on her face except in the competition/practice/pasture then you can't see her face because of her huge hat(unless she looks back).
The Stable-
Nice very nice- if you could ever use it! The backgrounds are beautiful but you can never ever clean your horse or clean out its stall. Also there are about twelve stalls but you can only have one horse. Totally crazy.
The Stall-
Your horse has a huge stall complete with a window and a whole lifetime supply of hay. The corky thing is your horse never poops and he never has to have his stall cleaned. Totally unre
Taking Care of Your Horse
Grooming-You have this dinky little sponge thing which you wave over your horse's back. You can do it as quick/long as you want which means they don't really care if you do it or not.
Feeding- all you can feed your horse is apples and maybe carrots. You don't ever have to water him.
Glitches-
I've never really experienced really bad technical trouble. Sometimes it takes the game a while to load and sometimes it freezes (I think the freezing problem is my computer).
If the horse turns his head back and you press the right/left arrow key the horse begans to walk in a circle and the top/side rider's hat dissapears for a second. It's kind of funny because she's totally bald (besides her ponytail).
Scrapbook- the scrapbook doesn't work for me :(. It was the part I was looking forward to most (sniff). Mine does little video clips of you riding. I like it a lot :).

Well there's my review. This game is fun [...] go ahead and buy it. It is fun for the first couple of weeks. I recommend it for little kids more than kids my age (10 and up).
