Horse Eden Eventing

Horse Eden Eventing is a free online horse SIM game. This game’s emphasis is on eventing and eventing competition. Players get to train, breed, and show virtual horses in the three phases of eventing – dressage, cross country, and show jumping. Players must also hire and train riders in order to compete successfully. Top riders and horses can enter championships and become eligible for year-end awards. For the elite performers, the Horse Eden World Games offers international competition.

This game also offers a thriving forum community full of horse lovers.

Howrse

Howrse is one of the most well-known horse SIM games. The game boasts 11 million international players. Players can breed, train, sell, and compete their stable of horses in events such as show jumping, racing, and dressage shows. Players also have the option of creating their own boarding barns and offering boarding services to other players.

There is the option to pay for special upgrades and advantages, which may deter some players. The game itself is designed for teenagers and up, and is more complex than many of the other horse games available.

Horseland

Horseland is a popular horse SIM game with over 7 million users. Players own, create, and train their horses to compete in shows. In 2006, an animated cartoon series based on the game premiered. This game also features an active forum.

Star Stable

Star Stable is a slightly different type of online horse game; rather than focusing on competition, Star Stable focuses on the adventures contained in the mysteries of a story that players unravel. Players ride their own horse across the island of Jorvik. They can play with friends, compete in races and shows, and solve quests. Players can sign up for a free account.

Equiverse

Equiverse is a free horse SIM game which focuses on breeding horses and competing them. Players can build a stable full of horses, hone their skills, and compete in events. There are over 1.7 million genetic combinations available on this game. Equiverse is designed for teenagers and up.

If you want to make sure that a game is right for your child, then it’s a good idea to set up an account of your own or to play the game with your child. Some of these games do have forums, and while the forums are monitored, anyone with an email address could potentially sign up to play the game. Be sure to always monitor your child’s online activity.

Horse games allow your child to build a dream barn of their own. If you would like to make your own dream barn a reality, then contact us at Classic Equine Equipment – we would love to help you.
