I miss the old Vertical gameplay.. its a bit jarring, pros and cons

Howrse for years has continued to keep their formula the same, equestrian breeding etc. it's a old classic game for all of us who grew up with it. many people over the years have downloaded the app and loved the simple click and play gameplay, that was before the horizontal update,

they have made the app more appealing, accessible, and function like a wide screen. it really didn't make the new experience exciting or interesting. many players feel like this new aspect ratio is very jarring. especially if you have played the app a few months ago and come back later and realize your easy vertical click and play gameplay has been changed to fit your phone screen awkwardly. some even
compared it to the PC website with how jarring and annoying it is to be reminded of a website when now we had a simple vertical click gameplay

from before. I believe this new change is jarring for many. overall howrse has kept their gameplay, style, and recipe the same. so commendable for that. overall this state of the app 2/5

….is the “improved experience on mobile” in the room with us?

This new landscape version of the app makes it pretty much functionally useless. It takes everything about the desktop website and makes it…..basically exactly the same, which is NOT good on a mobile device. The previous portrait mode version of the app wasn’t amazing but it was 100x better than this.

Miss what it used to be

The hand-holding technique makes game extremely limited. Used to by my favorite as a kid but my nieces hated it cause the lack of free will

Amazing you should get it

I highly recommend this game. It is amazing there’s so many breeds which I’m really happy about cause most games only have certain
breeds. I’m really happy that they make games that people actually love and actually like and they’re just amazing makers so please support them in. This is the best game ever 😍

Best

OMG this game is so good and so much fun 🤩 I can’t believe this is even a thing I love it so much. It’s the best game in the whole world. Also there is one tiny thing. It’s so fun that sometime that’s about it but this is I recommend this for three-year-olds that’s how good it is. I love it so much.
