### 4/5 — Great but one question

*2026-09-03, version 1.1.2*

I love it but can you make it where you can play offline because I am constantly on the go so I don’t get to play it much.

### 3/5 — Now you guys have made it impossible to win in the flag chases!

*2026-09-01, version 1.1.2*

Whatever you guys have done it’s now made it impossible to win any flag chases even with the horse’s that have a ten second head start because the other “players” ai now just jump them around I had one right next to me then next second she teleported and was way in front! All the ones that I could do before and did so many times i literally can’t do now it’s absolutely ridiculous and because I have to level up 40 traits I need to do that and I can’t

### 4/5 — The best👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

This game is pretty good until you play it too much until you get bored from it, but it is amazing game. I request this game like I really think you should get this if you are has been lonely since something and I think you would love this game if you are lonely and yeah, the best game ever👌🏻👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

### 4/5 — Good game but please read!

*2026-08-29, version 1.1.2*

Hi I kind of need help I have to get a bunch of horses but when I’m in the spot I’m in were the horse is its not there! And I’m a little bored of it because its the same horse every time I want a new one

### 2/5 — Starting to show it’s true colours

*2026-08-28, version 1.1.2*

So this game was very very promising. However I feel like the controls are a lot worse than they were during the early release. They felt so good before, really nice and responsive. I enjoyed just riding the horses around because of how good the controls felt. Now they feel very sluggish and slow. And the horses slide over the ground instead of looking like they actually connect. On top of that they now are adding limited event weeks that you have to pay for to get any of the rewards. The price is $13 per event week for a pass that allows you to unlock a tack set or an outfit set as you grind to get enough stupid points to unlock them. If you want the full matching set of both, you have to pay for both weeks. Which ends up being $26. And you still have to work for the rewards… you can earn ‘bows’ as currency and buy some of the items later in the limited shop. But each item costs 15 bows. The tack set has 5 items, and the outfit has six… within the entire 2 week event, you only earn 15 bows total. So you can’t even buy them with the event currency…. And purchasing bows costs waaay too many gems to make it worth it. Why does it cost so much when I already bought the monthly pass on top, and I still have to work for the items? They sell other premium sets for $13 in the normal shop but you get those immediately. If I’m paying, just give me the set immediately or at least offer more rewards. Offer trade items, gems, horse stalls, etc. And make it worth our while. Give the club members who already pay monthly a discount while you’re add it, and only charge once for the whole event, not $13 per week. It’s ridiculous. Not surprised though since this is PicPok we are talking about and they’ve run their other game, Rival Stars, into the ground with this bull.

### 2/5 — Love the idea BUT HUGE ISSUE

*2026-08-27, version 1.1.2*

Why is the sound not working? I was so excited to play this game because it reminded me of the one I played when I was a kid however I was really bummed out because there is no music or anything playing.

### 4/5 — PLEASE READ

*2026-08-22, version 1.1.2*

I love this game but it can get slightly boring when you just sit there racing so I know other people are on my side now… 1st. Breeding would be AWESOME and customising out stable or horses!

### 3/5 — Needs More To DO

*2026-08-20, version 1.1.1*

Show jumping or other western sports would be nice or even some damn roping.

### 2/5 — Brigue

*2026-08-19*

Fais que begué

### 3/5 — A bit buggy but still amazing

*2026-08-18, version 1.1.1*

I had to delete it and reload it because bugs kept coming up so if you could just go through your amazing game and fix a few small bugs I WILL give you a five star review I pinkie promise. Now to the good things I love the graphics and the horses even though you need a FREE black!🤣

### 4/5 — Sound not coming

*2026-08-16*

Using iPhone 13 , and sound not working

### 5/5 — This app is absolutely amazing!!!!!

*2026-08-13, version 1.1.0*

I love this game so much if you’re looking for a game that has cute horses cute horse breeds. You can pet your horse and take your horses out for rides have amazing stalls and read stories. It is the best game for you. Please get this app. It is so amazing. I just love it so much

### 3/5 — Its Good at First

*2026-08-13, version 1.1.0*

First off, the new animations are really ugly and make the horses look really weird. There was no need to change them and coming back to the game after a week i'm really put off by the way the horses twist their neck and hop. Please put them back 😭. Second off, while the game is honestly really cute and interesting, there are some super frustrating roadblocks put in place that make 0 sense. I get wanted to sell the riding pass to players, but making an entire matching set free to purchase EXCEPT FOR ONE ITEM is absolutely ridiculous. Why do I have to get the riding club to get ONE ITEM to complete a matching set that should have been entirely free in the first place.

### 5/5 — Новые породы/New breeds

*2026-08-12*

Игра замечательная, графика на высоте. Но хотелось бы видеть новые породы лошадок, желательно:  Фриз, шайр, першерон

**Developer response:** So glad you're loving your time exploring Moonrise Valley!  We really appreciate you sharing what you'd like to see next in Barbie Horse Ride & Rescue™.

### 5/5 — Best horse game of 2026

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.0*

So fun I love that you style your horse and you really have fun and barel racing is so much fun love it

### 5/5 — Owner pls read:

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.0*

Did you make the app Dreamhouse 
It’s a barbie game but when it loads it says MATEL like this app did you

### 4/5 — Great game but needs to have less need to pay moments

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.0*

It's a great game. But the amount of time it takes to complete the quests when you get towards Impact level 10 are insane. You almost have to buy gems to not be stuck for weeks

### 5/5 — Love!!

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.0*

I have been playing this game non stop. It is so much fun and reminds me of the Barbie horse riding game I played when I was younger. I would LOVE if we could eventually get more land expansions!! Maybe to an old village or snowy mountains? Also being able to dismount would be fun 😊 I can’t wait to keep playing!

### 1/5 — Ужас

*2026-08-17*

Скачала игру, но даже зайти в нее не могу. Пишет «ошибка, повторите снова»

### 1/5 — Bug

*2026-08-17, version 1.1.1*

Trying to play but I can’t control my horse I can only change speed I can’t steer my horse at all

### 1/5 — Won’t load

*2026-07-31, version 1.0.6*

Was never able to play. Downloaded and was never able to get game to load past “pikpok ID”. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling and had same issue.

### 1/5 — Was absolutely loving this game until.

*2026-07-26, version 1.0.5*

I lost ALL of my progress and purchases and I’ve filed a lost progress ticket with PikPok and did not hear back, just filed another one. I’ve spent a few hundred bucks on a subscription and in game purchases and that is all GONE. Not sure what to do to get my purchases back and get back to enjoy the game besides writing this review to hopefully get a developer to see?

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2026-07-16*

Зависло на загрузке игры и пишет, что нет интернета

**Developer response:** Hi there, we're sorry to hear you are unable to access the game. Could you please reach out to support@pikpok.com with your device information?

### 1/5 — Ужас

*2026-07-13*

Всё время вылетает

**Developer response:** We'd love to make it right and have you back again if you can share a bit more about what happened. You can reach us anytime at support@pikpok.com.

### 1/5 — Not functional

*2026-07-10*

Was so excited for this game, but I can’t even get through the tutorial. After rescuing my first horse and being prompted to brush them, it freezes. Restarting my game or device doesn’t fix it. So disappointed.

### 1/5 — Jolly poor

*2026-07-05, version 1.0.4*

I tracked and befriended this really nice horse called Nocturne but their was apparently no room in the caring station so Nocturne just disappeared and I really wish that she didn’t bc now she is completely gone and that one I spent ages befriending which is another really annoying thing about this game and also I am going to be deleting this app, So yeah I searched up what was happening and apparently it was just I didn’t have enough stables but I had 5 stables. FOR THE 3 HORSES I HAD!!!😡

### 1/5 — Muito difícil

*2026-07-02*

Não consigo me aproximar dos cavalos, quando estou chegando perto eles saem correndo, aparece um coração na tela e eu não sei o que fazer, muito mal explicado! Deveria ter um tutorial!

**Developer response:** Approaching wild horses can definitely be tricky if you aren't sure what to look for. When you get close to a horse, keep an eye out for a white ring that appears on the ground beneath it. You need to steer into that circle and stay inside it to fill up the heart at the top of your screen. Once full, you have successfully befriended them!

If you have any other concerns, please email support@pikpok.com so we can check it out. Let's get your rescue journey in Barbie Horse Ride & Rescue™ back on track!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-29, version 1.0.4*

Downloaded it and it wouldn’t even open, was stuck on the loading screen for 30 mins, deleted and downloaded again but still no luck, I understand it is fairly new but this shouldn’t be happening. I would really appreciate if this could be fixed as I would quite like to play it.

### 5/5 — Finally, a mobile horse game done right.

*2026-09-05, version 1.1.2*

THANK YOU! I have been chasing the feeling PS2’s Barbie Wild Horse Rescue (WHR) used to give me. This has some feelings of nostalgia along with the excitement of something new. Great game controls and fun story line. I love the options to explore and compete as well. It would be fun to have option to dismount and call your horse like in WHR. Foals would be another fun addition. Please also consider expanding on this and bringing something similar to this/WHR to consoles!

### 5/5 — Cool

*2026-08-29, version 1.1.2*

It was not what I thought but it is ok

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2026-08-24, version 1.1.2*

Me and my sister got this game a week ago and beat it already we love it just pls let out chapter 4 on ios

### 5/5 — I love thiss

*2026-08-20, version 1.1.2*

I’m having so much fun doing the quests and scouting for horses and it’s not mega hard

### 5/5 — Pferde

*2026-08-20*

Hallo liebes Team das Spiel ist sssoooo toll aber es kommt leider viel zu oft vor das du Pferde retten musst und die Boxen sind so teuer je mehr Pferde man hat und manche Pferde kosten ja auch noch was und wenn du Missionen mit style Events hast musst du ja auch noch was bezahlen und dann fehlt mir meistens das Geld und ich komme einfach nicht weiter sonst ist das Spiel zu empfehlen ich habe es seit dem ersten Tag wo es rausgekommen ist und ich lllllliiiiiieeeebe es ich Spiele es jeden Tag und es hat mir noch nie Probleme gemacht wirklich das muss man runterladen

### 5/5 — Super fun! But…

*2026-08-19, version 1.1.1*

I downloaded this game about a week ago and it is super fun! I love the different game modes, all the different tack, and that we can ride around everywhere! 
This is nothing against the game, but here are a couple suggestions of things that I would love to see in the game that would make it absolutely way more fun! 1. It would be cool to be able to hop off your horse and walk around.  2. It would be really fun if we could use shampoo, conditioner, and wash our horse down.   3. Having more clothing options for the writers would be cool, especially ones of different colors and different style scarves.  4. Having different mane and tail styles as in different lengths or braids or have different hairstyles for your horses.
5. This is something small, but having some different and varied soundtracks would be really cool because then the soundtracks are unique to the game and remind you of the game.
6. Also, another thing that a lot of games don’t implement but a lot of us don’t wanna pay for stuff in the game so maybe incorporating a system so you can overtime we can save up a different sort of in-game credit to buy things that cost money. Maybe if we watch enough ads or do certain things we can then maybe purchase something that cost money normally.
But overall, it’s a super fun game and I hope to see some cool updates! In the story is really fun and I look forward to seeing the progression of the storyline💕💕
