4.8 out of 5
It’s okay

The game is over al pretty good but got boring very quickly when I first started plaything the game everything was fine and I would play all day but after that it started to get a little boring the tasks got very hard to complete and I spent 15 dollars plus tax on the game so I don’t want to stop now very recently the game has been giving me very bad lag so the raveling is much harder everything is so much more choppy and I lost 2000 dollars and 4 racing energy’s just because the game would not load.I also find it very hard to try and get better horses considering you have to buy it with real money or keep getting up levels that take FOREVER to get on the next,I find it very hard to enjoy this game when there are a lot of areas that they need to work on, for instance premium, ten dollars a month?! I find it very over priced considering you only getting tack options that you still have to pay for with in game money and access to other studs other then the premium is basically USELESS so although the game can seem fun at first try not to spend money on it because it got boring fast. Any people who are looking for k good game this one is okay but I rather recommend star stable it’s much more pricy there but at least you only have to pay one for premium and the game doesn’t get boring as there are many quests and things to do.

Amazing! A few complaints...

I love Rival Stars. I’ve had it since early last year. Breeding is fun, foals are cute, racing is fun (most of the time), and training wait times are a bit tedious. I wish that there was a way to get horses other than bay or brown horses. For example, I really want a black stallion with a white star, and I see them all the time in the market, but I need gold coins, which I only have 40 of. The only colors for silver coins are brown, bay, chestnut, and occasionally cream. This is mainly what I get after breeding, too. I would like Star Club, but I believe there should be more to offer, so for now I’ll just wait and see. Because right now, the only benefits of being in Star Club is one “special” stud to breed with, a few tack choices (which you still have to pay gold coins for is what others have said, correct me if I’m wrong), and a jockey choice. Please add more, special benefits for Star Club members and I just might consider buying a membership. Also, please add more free breeding choices because, again, the only free studs to breed with are usually brown, bay, or chestnut and the results are usually the same each time. I have taken into consideration what the foal’s color would likely be (due to the new genetic tab) but my theory is incorrect and guess what, it’s a brown foal, even though the parents aren’t brown, and their grandparents aren’t brown. Sorry if I was a bit harsh.

No name

So I had this horse named trouble he was in my stalls and one of my fav but then I was running out of room so I moved him out to the pasture then I bred a new horse and I wa looking through all my horses let me name then jet nightmare, snowflake, winter, snow, frisky, twilight, moonlight, spider, shadow, ace, Casper, Goldy, dusty, Yellowstone, Harley, thunder, laylay don't judge, zee, midnight, and trouble there are a few more but let's keep going to my point and I had no room so I had to sell one and I sold trouble and now I regret it cause that goal that replaces trouble I sold to cause he wasn't as good and what I was looking for so what I am trying to say is I wish we could get more stalls for like free once and a while cause for one stall j I want to buy one right now it's 1000 good and u all know how hard it is to get gold so that's one thing why it's a 4 review it would be a five but sorry on the other hand though I love everything it's graphics are amazing me and I love the prizes I want to say one more thing the horses that ar on sale are gorgeous but not all of us can get them so I get so sad cause they are beautiful but that was really it I'm glad I got this game it keeps me occupied when I'm bored so love it but if we could make some changes so we could get gold easierly and if we could get mor stalls once in a while that would be great have a nice day byee
👍👍😃❤️

I LOVED THIS GAME! But…

Okay, this game was one of my favorites! The graphics are beautiful and the dynamics and storyline, even though it isn’t huge, is just wonderful. I was breeding up high level horses pretty easily. Racing is a blast and super fun. Training doesn’t take too long and there are barely any ads! I literally have no complaints. Except one… One day, while I was trying to do the SIMPLEST THING, (change my ranch’s sign and name) it froze. My keyboard that I was typing with just froze completely. So I thought “oh, well I can just close RivalStarsHorseRacing and then restart it. But it my home button wasn’t working. In fact, nothing on my phone was working. Except for the shut off button. But when I shut it off, and turned it back on, it just opened right into RivalStarsHorseRacing again. So finally we had my phone die, it was at full battery so it took all day but it died and when I turned it back on it had reset. I love this game, but apparently it was too much for my phone so I sadly had to delete it. If this ever happens to you gamers, just have your phone die and it will reset. I don’t know WHY this happened, but it makes me sad that I had to get rid of this beautiful game. All in all, this is four stars, i had to knock off one because of my phone freezing up but it that gets fixed I will GLADLY update it up to five stars. Thanks for the great experience and wonderful gameplay time I had.

OH MY GOD - (praise + an issue)

This is a really good game. The gameplay and graphics are great, and the horses’ behavior is natural (I would know since I ride). I love the foals (they’re ADORABLE OMG) and the coat colors of the horses are amazing (palomino, grey, chestnut, Appaloosa, dappled…). BUT. *****I HAVE A PROBLEMMMM.***** When you go to breed, you have to pay silver and tack/feed/whatever, right? So. In the beginning of the game, when you’re just starting, the fees are small. But now, I’ve had this game for a yearish, it’s really expensive. The silver isn’t much of a problem, more than the tack/feed/whatever. There’s two kinds of that: the basic tack/feed/whatever and the silver kind. The basic is much easier to get than the silver kind. For example, in the Market, basic costs 70 gold. Silver kind costs 300 gold. Gold is FREAKING hard to come by, unless you pay like 15 bucks just for 300. So the fact that gold costs so much, plus the fact that you need sevenish silver kind to breed, plus the fact that you also need silver kind to train, it all adds up. I think the developers should take away the silver kind from the breeding cost, or take away 3/4 of it. If you agree with me, write “Edit: 🐴💵” at the bottom of your review and say the reason so other people know too. Obviously, you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to, but it would be greatly appreciated. It’ll benefit the entire community. Edit: 🐴💵

One of, but not the best.

I would call myself a Derby Owners Club veteran, and therefor will compare these two games because I feel NO game has ever been better. I’ll start by saying this game is GREAT! It’s the closest thing to DOC I’ve seen. Gameplay is great, graphics are great, the racing is different and cool.

But.. (I won’t complain about wait times, free to play, so I get it) but the fact that you get locked out of literally everything is annoying. You should still be able to race while upgrading, just don’t apply the stat until it’s finished. Same for breeding. The training is so lame and boring. DOC made a great stat improvement system where stats were based on how well you perform in the mini game. Here you just tap a button. Real original. Same with feeding. DOC allowed you to select your stat (and ultimately the type of race horse style) by choosing different foods which allocated different stats. There’s no feeding in this game. Another person said the horses should have ages and I agree! You can just race willy nilly, and without a class system like DOC, there’s no real excitement for the next race, you just do it because you need experience.

With all this said, it’s still a great game. It just lacks the replay value when you get to a higher level. Maybe there’s no more grade a horse racers because no one can come close to DOC, and maybe the fact that they don’t revive the series says something.

Nice Game, but hard to advance

Hey guys! So really neat game!! I’ve always loved horses and when I downloaded this game I was blown away by the graphics! I really enjoyed the racing and breeding and free roam. And I love that you added jumps. But I have one MAJOR issue! It’s waaay too hard to level up! I am currently at prestige level 13 and it was so hard to get there. I stopped playing this game for a year due to that fact. I know you get some prestige points from competing and stories, but it’s not enough and it gets super boring when I have to go through 2-3 prestige levels just to breed the next level horse! I’m pretty sick of being stuck in one prestige and nothing to really look forward to in the next prestige. I want to breed or buy the next level horses, now. So, I recommend reducing the amount of prestige points for each level or increasing the amount of points that you get from each race to like 1000+. Once my last horse is leveled up there is nothing to do because I can’t improve for higher races. I’m spending way to much time trying to level up. Please please do something about this!!! Also, it’d be neat if you could really interact with your foals in the paddock and watch them run around. I’ll try to stick it out a while longer, but if this doesn’t change, I will drop the game altogether. Otherwise extremely nice game!

Rival stars suggestions.

I love this game! I love being able to get new foals and see what they turn out to be but I think there should be an auction so you can bid and get horses and get more money out of your horses. I think it would be really fun to bid on unique horses and I also think you should be able to put your stallions out to stud so if anybody wants to breed with your stud they can pay and the owner of the stud would get money. Those are just ideas. I am truly addicted to this game I love being able to win prizes and things like that. One more suggestion, the energy level really annoys me. I don’t like going to bed for 10-12 hours and still wake up to 10 energy. I think it should always be charging so that no matter how long you are away from the game you can get energy and race until you have zero. I think that you should be able to get as many energies as long as you are away. One more thing that gets me really mad is how hard it is to get gold especially when there is an exotic gene I want to breed, I think you should be able to get gold from races or selling really good horses and I think you can purchase a certain amount of things with gold and be able to pay back with gold.

Almost So Close Perfect!

I love most of everything that y’all have done to this game. One think I would prefer is that no matter the grade or level of the horse it’s getting trained to, others including myself would like if they would all be the same like as the 5 minutes for training because it takes forever and you are just strutting there for 30 to and hour so far(that’s how far the horses I have now train too) but if it would all be able to be 5 minutes to where we can skip it for free would be grand! Also the genetics should be more realistic and or would like to customer what the goal would look like! Oh and also I would like to ask if y’all could add something to wear we could possibly feed the horses and to wear we can have more than 10 races at a time because myself and others I know go through the 10 races very fast. Also I would like to have it to wear when you get sponsored, the sponsors would give you something you need and also to wear you could have boots for your horse in the custom section. Another thing, to wear after every race, IF you WIN you get to choose what you need and after every 3 WINS you get to pick 2 things you need?!! Everything I ha e listens would be grand if y’all did this or something close or like this! Thanks!

recommend!!

I just wanna say that this game is the best horse game yet. I’ve been looking for a horse game like this for awhile. I love the different horses you can get and the sports you can do. I also wanna say that the horses look realistic, which I really like. the developers put a lot of effort into this game and I am so thankful for that! I have some suggestions that you (developers) can add if you want. although there’s cross country and racing already in the game, I was wondering if you could maybe add dressage and/or barrel racing? I feel like having more sports to do will make it more fun. I also want horses to look different. no, I do not mean the coat colors. I mean the way they look besides the coat color. like maybe add horses with feathered hooves or different face structure bc they all look the same besides their coat colors. I found out that people who play on a PC can customize their horses. maybe adding that on mobile would make it fun since you can customize your own horse. this game is super fun and I recommend it! thank you developers for putting so much effort into this wonderful game. I’ve read some reviews on here and they say that it’s also good. people love this game so much and are thankful! hope y’all continue to improve this game to make it better!

Outstanding 👏

I’ve just started playing Rival Stars Horse Racing, and I have a few things I’d like to say and/or point out.
First of all, Rival Stars Horse Racing is just a wonderful game. I enjoy playing it, and many others do, too. During my free time, I automatically think of playing this game. I just can’t wait to hop on and explore RivalStarsHorseRacing and breed new horse coats.
Secondly, the graphics are amazing for a mobile game. Every time I open RivalStarsHorseRacing I just look at the graphics in awe. The details are magnificent, showing each muscle on the horses’ bodies, every line in the wood of the stables, each blade of grass sticking out within each other. It truly is something.
Finally, I’d like to mention the desktop version. I’ve been looking on Steam for RivalStarsHorseRacing, and have debating on whether I should buy the game or not. I already have a lot of fun playing it on my iPad, so why not get the desktop version that has more features? Well, it costs money. I think that’s my biggest argument. Should I spend the money on this game? Honestly, yes. It’s totally worth it! Especially if you catch it on sale.
In conclusion, Rival Stars Horse Racing is an outstanding game on both mobile and desktop devices. I highly recommend this game towards anyone interested in horse racing.

Incredible game!

I’ve been playing this game for about a month and I can hardly put it down! The graphics are the most beautiful graphics I’ve ever seen in a mobile horse game. The racing is really fun because you’re actually there on the track rather than just looking from a distance or from above and you are in complete control. I can almost feel wind in my face as I race around the track. Another thing I really love about this game is that every horse is different in some way. I haven’t seen two horses that look exactly the same yet. The horses also look like thoroughbreds instead of just any horse. The movements are also very realistic. I can tell that a lot of love and hard work went into the making of this game and I really appreciate that. One more thing I almost forgot to mention is the music. The music is fantastic, especially with headphones. Very good job 👍🏼. This is a great game and I highly recommend it to any horse lovers who read this review.

Edit: I love the new customization update, but the prices are way too high in my opinion. Also, there’s an annoying glitch where the black and cyan tack only shows as black when I’m racing. Those are the only issues though and I’m not gonna take any stars off for them because this is still a great game.

Another Edit: Can we please keep the quick ride feature? It totally blew me away and I’m really gonna miss it when it leaves! This was by far my favorite update!

Love the game, a few Suggestions though!

Hi, I absolutely love this game. I think it is great and am amazed by how many patterns there are. I do have a few suggestions that I hope you could think about tho. 1: You could trade/give your friends horses! There could be a button that says: request horse and you could type in what pattern, level, and stats you would prefer it to be! 2: I do feel like we should be able to have more videos to refill on racing energy. It is difficult when I want to breed two horses together that are in the higher levels and not have enough feeds for them, and then after I get them, the horse from the stud farm is gone! I hope you put that in mind 😁. 3: I would like to be able to save horses from the stud farm. There could be a button next to the horse that says ‘SAVE’ and you could save it for later on to breed, but once you breed it, it is not saved. 4: I think we could maybe have the feed requesting so you can type in how much you want of it (maximum: 4), so you don’t have to wait 7/8 hours for another request if you don’t have any more racing energy! That’s all I think would make this game better (if that’s even possible! 😁), and I hope you take this to mind. Thank you for making this great game! 😁😁😁🐴🐴🐴

Can still improve

This is the best horse game available in RivalStarsHorseRacing Store hands down that can be played entirely off of your iPhone. It reminds me of the graphics similar to the Dave N Busters horse racing simulation game (they’ve since removed it). Horses are realistic and extremely unique, racing and controlling is also very accurate. There is always room for improvement though. Here are a few of my suggestions.
I play nearly every other day and find that my favorite part about this game is breeding but I often cannot afford to breed the horses I need for the level I am at. For example- there are multiple different surfaces but even after some time breeding is not guaranteed AND it costs a lot of in app money. So I am stuck with horses that are easy to sell- and that I spent a lot of time (watching ads) to skip to maturity-so I may use them right away- and yet after a significant amount of time I guess I am just not as happy with my current horses as I’d like to be. I’d like to have a black horse but that has not happened yet and it should not be difficult to personalize the game to your liking.
I suggest also making it easier to get gear and tack. The game at Dave n busters would let you pick gear from a large selection- yours is too small. Still a lovely game! Thank you!

Pitch perfect!

Okay, I just want to start off with the fact: 👏 This 👏 Game 👏 Is 👏 AWESOME 👏 This game has to be the best horse game on RivalStarsHorseRacing Store! You can do so much, just about the same thing as other horse games, but RivalStarsHorseRacing makes them 10x better! You can do the usual: breeding, riding, racing, etc. But, you can also do: COMPETITIVE racing, cross country, quests, and so many other great stuff. If you are hesitant, you should download this game. Yes, it does take up A LOT of storage, but honestly, it’s SO worth it! This game is super high tech! Example: In the races the announcer says your horses SPECIFIC name! (it doesn’t say the name if your horses name is ‘****’) Also, this game is so detailed, like when you breed two horses, and you see the baby for the first time, it shows the baby standing up and wobbling, which is just so adorable. And when you age it up you get a scene where the horse walks up to you, and you can see the coat, stats, etc. And you like cutscenes, the beginning of this game is great! It shows your grandfather in a race, where you play as him and win. Then gives a ton of backstory to how your riding journey started. Honestly, this game deserves 5 stars. If you are hesitant about getting this game, take it from me: G E T T H E G A M E ! 5/5 stars, this game is phenomenal! It exceeds all standards to a great horse game! Thank you for taking time out of your day to read this. Have an amazing day / night.

Best By Far!!!! 🦋🌸🦄

Rival Stars Horse Racing is by far the best!! This game is the best ever! The graphics, detail, and racing. Few update ideas (I’m not begging for this!! )) Maybe have an option to Retire horses. They can still be bred with other horses and be ridden in quick ride, but can’t be raced. Another update I think would be fun would be leading and grooming. I think leading and grooming would be fun, because since the horses can roll in the paddock, we can clean them off. I also think another nice update would be when you racing against someone else’s Stallion to have an option to request to breed a mare with them. It sounds weird but I think it would be nice to get some interesting genes in. Also just to be able to have a jockey and horse profile so that we can see who we race against. I also think us mobile players should be able to make custom horses aswell. Overall, none of my ideas in forcing, just requesting. I think it would add some more things to do. #RivalStars4Ever!! P.S. You creators made an amazing game (Edit: 🐴💵, Pass this on, type “Edit: 🐴💵” to help raise awareness of breeding costs, it is expensive XD! We are not forcing this but if you want to just type those emojis at the bottom of your review to help, and say what it is for!! <3 Ty for reading!)

My opinion

First off lemme say your game is amazing I love the new jumping but I do think u guys should still add show jumping cross country abs dressage it would put your game over the top and your game is better then any other online horse game I think it’s time for you guys to take it to the next level I wish also horses were a little cheaper or we won more money from races also I wish breeding was faster and I wish we won the horse money not those little gray tokens I wish there wasn’t a time limit on free roam or at least if it is the time I’d like 10-20 mins and free roam should be free no video watching I wish it was easier to get different colors on the horses and I wanna see less brown horses I wanna see a different variety of colors I’m the shop more often I wish we had more customizations for are characters abs I wish we could change the genders of are characters at any time I wish that stallions were more common I have a full barn of mares and one stallion especially when breeding I wish the farm was actually like real like we could explore u should add different places to go to race and actually taking the trip or being able to drive to the horse shows or at least watch the drive no time limit and I wish to be able to brush and care for are horse feed and wash them and be able to watch them all play freely that is all I wish

Best horse racing game I’ve gotten

The game itself is amazing, it ranges from breeding, to buying horses, to upgrading, racing, and even free riding. I personally think that this game is the best horse racing game I’ve heard of and had, and I have A LOT. The graphics are amazing, and so is audio. I do however have a few recommendations to make the game better. I think it would be really cool if there was a horse editor, even if it costs like 10k to 50k coins, it would be great. I wish it was easier to get gold in larger amounts, because of this I only have about 7 stables, when I should have much more based on my level. It would really help with breeding if you could get exotic and rare genes/ coat patterns/etc, and that the horses with exotic genes cost less to breed with. Also I think some horses should be able to be trained more, because for many live events and goals you have to come in a specific placement in a race, and some horses can’t get there because of their max potential. Also it would be nice if you could choose which horse was on your Home Screen. More rider options, silks, and patterns for the riding uniform would also be nice. Another thing that could be added is more options for the name of your stable, what I mean is more sign looks, and colors. Overall this game is amazing and very fun, if you are a fan of horses and horse racing this is definitely the game for you. I 100% recommend installing RivalStarsHorseRacing.

so close...

i'm going to start off by saying this is the best horse game everrrr! the developers really put in so much time and effort for this game to be so amazing. i truly love it. the graphics are great, the way that every horse is different in some way is fantastic. most games like this i'll ply for a little while but then get bored of it, but this game challenges you and you can always get better. i enjoy how you have to work hard to level up so that way you aren't just playing the game with ease. however, i wish you could care for your horses and foals. be able to see them in a field and stuff like that. it would be amazing to have your horses get older as you progress. also, with the breeding part, it would be so great to have it to where your foals would look/ get the color from their parents. and in the market, you should be able to purchase all of the feeds and materials because you need them and it can be hard to earn them from racing. the energy part, i think it should be able to increase as you progress through the game so that way you can race more. these are all things that i believe would make the game perfect. i understand that updates and changing the game takes time and effort and i really do appreciate how considerate y'all are. i love this game and will continue to play it. please take my feedback into consideration
Thanks, Ashlee

10/10 Highly Recommend <3

I’ve been playing this game since it came out. I’ve seen it evolve from just racing, to the amazing modes we have now. The graphics are amazing. The developers really put a lot of thought, energy, research and effort into constantly improving the game. They really listen to the players and have added suggestions that the players ask for when it improves the game and makes sense. (Plus we get to experiment sometimes and they ask for feedback every now and then.) The gameplay provides a lot of challenge, but also relaxation. There’s nothing like chilling with your horses in the pasture on a cozy day in or practicing with your horses in free roam and bonding. I really feel like each horse has their own personality. Don’t judge. :] I also love the community involved. I’ve made some really good friends through this community and met alot of good people. The graphics are AMAZING. Seriously some of the best horse racing graphics I’ve seen. And this started off as a MOBILE game. It has since expanded but I continue to play mobile… for now. :] The breeding system on this game is also fantastic and fun. So proud of how far it’s come. I’ve played many horse racing games but this one has it all.
