Info:

Disney Princess Royal Horse Show, starring four popular princesses, has players preparing their mount for the Royal Horse Show. From within the stable, each horse can be outfitted with colorful saddles, ribbons, flowers, and more. (Old Games Download). The horses can be ridden in many different showjumping tracks (called show rings), and there are also some other things to do in the game.

Basically, in this game, you can decorate your horses. If you decorate 2 horses, you can open a new horse. There's also a show ring where you can ride your horse on showjumping. In the first show ring, you need to complete the ride 5 times to win ribbons to get to the second show ring, and then get 6 ribbons on the second to get to the last one. Then 7 to finish the last one. After that, you can try to ride the tracks faster and complete more jumps to get more "rewards".

There's also a craft cottage, where you can see the rewards you’ve won, a card collection about horse breeds (you get them by completing tracks), and also a scrapbook.

At first, the show ring wasn't working at all, it just gave me a bunch of errors. I somehow got it fixed, and was able to collect all the ribbons.


Basic controls: mouse, arrows, can't be changed


Ratings:

Overall rating 2,5/5

Graphics 3/5

Controls 4/5

Sounds
Music 2/5
Sound effect 2,5/5
Voice acting 2/5 (their accent is pretty unrealistic for a Disney princess)


Notices:

+When riding, you don't need to steer your horse, it steers automatically, which is good because of the crabby angle you have while riding.
-The princesses must talk every time you enter a place, and you can't skip that.
-Lack of things to do.


Gameplay screenshots:

In the stable, you can decorate horses. And don't look at the horse's eye, it's a bit creepy...

Here is one outfitted/decorated horse.

You can also decorate this area (change flags, flowers, etc.).

Craft cottage.

The show ring/showjumping, exciting, right?

Oh, never mind... This is the view you get while riding. The good thing with this crappy angle is, the horse steers automatically, you just need to use space to jump. And that bird chirps when you need to jump

These are all the available horses.

More unique decorations.

Collecting all the ribbons takes a while because the horse is pretty slow.

The card collection. You can listen to short info about each breed. But there are many mistakes, like the Finnhorse is only a draft horse...


Is it worth playing?
Surprisingly, I had a pretty fun time playing this simple game. The riding part, and how the princesses talk always between tasks (with their weird accent) is a bit tiring and time-consuming. Just trying to collect all the ribbons for basically nothing takes too long. I guess especially the outfitting/decorating might be fun for kids.
