I adored this game as a child, so I'm coming back a decade later to tackle it again! I have a lot of work to do to get back in the groove. It's changed a lot, but the friendliness and helpfulness between players seems just as lovely.
I'm raising all of my horses for BLUPping and breed improvement, but my primary is the Quarter Horse.
Meeki's presentation has a huge list of resources for newer players including Blupping schedules and horses that give gifts to their visitors!
