Ellen Whitaker's Horse Life (2008)

In Horse Life 2 the player can select his horse from seven different breeds and can take care of it, train it and take part in various competitions. The horse's behaviour is thereby depicted in a lifelike way in real-time. All competitions in the riding world such as dressage, show jumping and cross country are shown realistically. A gripping story really at-tracts the player to the screen and allows him to experience many differing tasks in a wide range of varied locations.

Storyline

Visiting the horse-riding farm of Mr. Whitaker, your uncle, you were lucky enough to be present at the birth of a foal — the foal of your dreams! Your uncle decides that the horse will be yours, as long as long as you take good care of it. You'll need to visit your horse in the pasture to spend time with it, groom it regularly, teach it new movements, and of course, take it on long rides in the countryside. If everything goes well, you can both take part in some of the most prestigious competitions in Europe. You might even travel to the United States to take part in the World Championship! It is even said that the greatest champions can ride fabulous mounts like zebras or unicorns... But we'll let you discover for yourself whether this legend is really true!
