Good fun. A little difficult to get used to the manuvering of the horse. As an Equestrian rider pulling upwards on the nunchuk and remote to turn left and right felt weird. Wanted to move hands right and left or try to neckrein and use my legs instead. Ha Ha!! There isn't really a horse to move away from your leg in this game. But overall, it really is enjoyable and harder than I would have thought to master the movement and control.
I use this Wii game in combination with my I-Joy I-Ride to practice my seat and tone my core. With this combo I can still ride on a cold, rainy day! I am not much of a gamer- but My Horse and Me is so much fun! The only complaint I have is with the joystick and wii controls, they're alittle awkward and not super responsive. I'd love to see some type of "rein" kind of control for the game.
Fun! Takes a little practice to figure out to move one hand at a time to steer the horse.

I grew up riding horses and participating in competitions. As an adult I no longer ride, but my daughter has inherited my love of horses. I bought this game primarily for her (she's 4) but I am having just as much fun! It is enjoyable for children and adults, and even though she needs some help navigating the controls, she understands the basic concepts, and is having a lot of fun!
This game is totally awesome! I love the simulated rein holding, although it is tricky to master, you get comfortable with it fairly quickly! The mini games are cute, but I found them slightly annoying (the hunt & find was too simple and the butterflies overly difficult for the simplicity of it). The riding & jumping was good, but the arena part was near impossible & I'm still unhappy with the controls in that area.
