Player Reviews

Where do I begin? I have been playing ER since July 7th and I can't express in words how much I've enjoyed it. It has given me another world to escape to. I had horses for six years before I came to college a year and a half ago, and for awhile, I really missed them. It'd be a lie to say that I don't still miss them, but ER has given me something to fill that void for now. Also, the recent changes in my life have thrown me into a transitional period. When I felt like all of my life direction and goals were lost, ER gave me something to feel passionate about. Not to mention the genetics portion of ER prepared me for my Bio 181 lecture on heredity and genetics, so I already knew everything covered in class, with a few extra tid bits. ER is as real as you let it become, and if you're horse starved, it can become pretty real.

The Original Genetics Based Automated Horse SIMulation

Others claim to be realistic. We actually are.

Equine-Ranch is not your average horse game. Equine-Ranch is a leader in complexity, challenge, and realism. It is a true to life simulation of the competitive horse world. You won't find magical or mythical equines. No unicorns nor pegasi. You also won't find any way to buy your way to the top. No magic potions to make your horse an instant winner here.

You also won't spend countless hours doing the same repititious things just to stay on top here. Reaching the top on E-R takes thinking, not endless clicking. E-R horses actually "learn" tasks that you train them.

Do you want a simulation that really is realistic? Not one that just says it is. Do you want a game that gives you the freedom to choose your own way of doing things instead of forcing you to do things a set way? Do you want a game that lets you set your own goals? Then E-R is the place for you!

Breed, raise, train, buy, sell, and compete virtual horses in our persistent world with thousands of other players from around the world. Enjoy being part of the horse world without the stalls to muck and the expense that comes with real horses.
