While there are not much activities other than pole bending and barrel racing It is super fun ### 3/5 — Good western game *2026-07-17, version 2.1.5* I loveeee the game but it needs updates. I’ve had it since it’s came out and when you have everything unlocked and all the good horses it gets a little boring. I recommend adding a training aspect and maybe a new arena ### 4/5 — I CANT BUT JEMS *2026-07-04, version 2.1.5* It’s a super good game but I wanted to buy Jems and I have money because I wanted to buy some horses ### 4/5 — One problem *2026-06-14, version 2.1.5* Every time I try to buy the diamonds, it won’t let me it just won’t ### 4/5 — Love it but…. *2026-06-10, version 2.1.5* This game is so amazing i love that you Don’t have to have internet but there is one thing you do not have a bridle so Don’t spend your money on a bridle I don’t know if your device on this game has a bridle but I don’t on my device so look before you buy a bridle so other than that i love this game so much so yeah bye🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴🐎🐴🐎 ### 4/5 — So if you play this or ur gonna get it READ THIS *2026-06-05, version 2.1.5* Can you add like more arenas for free and like make it so you can go on trail rides cuz that’s a whoh button it makes no sense and if you do can you make it so you can ride your horse in a trailer and so you can ride your horse in the eye all the way and so if you do a show you get money like in game coins if ur time is like 23.35 and make horses cheaper plz but I know in real life horses are more $$ but I ride English but some times I ride western(even tho I’m 9) but I love this game ### 4/5 — This is the best for rodeo family’s, but make it easier *2026-05-17, version 2.1.5* I love to barrel race and I’m just a kid I saw this game on the App Store and I thought it would be easy, but it wasn’t 😕 make the turns a little easier pleeeassse! The gems 💎 are sooo hard to get you can barely get them. I DONT even know where to find them. ### 3/5 — Fun *2026-04-30, version 2.1.5* I've had it for an hour and I mean it's fine and I'm exuded there's finally a western horse game.

𝓡𝓮𝓪𝓵 𝓮𝓺𝓾𝓮𝓼𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓪𝓷𝓼 (𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓶𝓮) 𝓶𝓲𝓰𝓱𝓽 𝓫𝓮 𝓽𝓻𝓲𝓰𝓰𝓮𝓻𝓮𝓭. 😭😭😭 ### 4/5 — 3 things you should know *2026-04-26, version 2.1.5* on the replay of the pole bending or barrel racing ur legs go in the saddle but it looks fine. And you only get 3 arenas and 1 of them you have to buy (1500 coins and coins are hard to get) and 1 more you have to take 10 competitions and ur hat is really tall and ur eyes👁️👄👁️😭 they are like open sooo much like bestie ✋👁️👄👁️✋ and horses are sooo much like ever run is better 😭😭😭 and its for kids and I’m 9 tho and make it so you have to watch an ad to for the more expensive horses plzzz ### 2/5 — Not very nice but ok *2026-04-03, version 2.1.5* It’s a fun game to play but.. I wish i wish it had better things like the people not glitching in the saddle and the horse tack not glitching with the horses and more stuff to do like jumping or racing lunging vaulting and these thing are very important so I would like the editors to change thease things please. To riding In real life beginners I say as a perfect riding that For beginners I think it would not be a good game to play I think that it would give them Ron ideas about horses so I say 2 star ### 4/5 — Awsome *2026-03-10, version 2.1.5* Co ### 4/5 — I love this but to hard *2026-02-28, version 2.1.5* This is amazing except that it gets a little too hard, so please please make sure you make this easier because when I did the tilting on your device to steer your horse it was just a little too hard in the bending and barrel racing it just got too hard because I was just I don’t wanna talk about it because it’s just too hard but I want another update because I think adding more breeds and other stuff would be way cooler so if you don’t like hard games, I recommend you do not get this ### 4/5 — Love it! *2026-01-31, version 2.1.5* There aren’t many good western horse themed games out there, but when I came across this one, I knew it was the one! This is really fun, the details and graphics are amazing! But I would recommend instead of having just differentt horse coats, adding breeds would be really fun!! Also, maybe being able to style your horse’s mane and tail to be braided, longer, charter or even wavy! Either way, this game rocks! Thank for making this!! ### 4/5 — Please add this *2026-01-31, version 2.1.5* I love this game so much but I really wish this game had a free play mode where we could just ride on the beach or go on a trail ride. Please add this developer(s)! ### 2/5 — .. *2026-01-07, version 2.1.5* When trying torials it’ll continually pop up when trying it causing to loose focus and frustration ### 4/5 — Decent *2025-12-14, version 2.1.5* This is a pretty decent game,I would recommend getting it if you’re a horse lover,but there’s just a few things.the clothes and tack are expensive,and sometimes if you do a competition you don’t get any money.also,you have to wait for energy,sure,sometimes it takes like one minute,but some take like fifteen minutes.i love the feature were you can replay the race because it’s actually a decent video.you also have to just sit and wait a lot.i like how you can skip the warmup cause i kinda just don’t like it.so,would I recommend this game?yes,if you are a horse lover and feel” like you will enjoy it.is it AWESOME?no,but it is a very decent game.so,if you think you would enjoy it,you should get it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Worst game everrrr *2026-07-24, version 2.1.5* So hard to control horses are ugly horrible graphics and if I could rate is 0 stars I would so I am definitely deleting it ### 1/5 — 😡 *2026-05-11, version 2.1.5* THIS GAME OS THE WORST DONT GET IT!! EVERY TIME YOU TURN IT LITERALLY GOES OFF TRACK AND YOU END UP GOING OFF TRACK AND LOSING SO DONT WASTE YOU TIME ### 1/5 — laggy and bad quality *2026-05-10, version 2.1.5* can barely even play the game because the buttons and wtv else don't even work. won't let you buy diamonds ### 1/5 — Unable *2026-03-30, version 2.1.5* So at first it was good so I saved up to bye one of the faster horses and I had exactly the number to bye him. So I bought and competitions are a hundred $$ and I didn't have enough or enough gems too bye money so I've waited for the daily rewards and every time I get the reward I get the it just disappears from th account ### 1/5 — I can’t get in the game *2026-03-02, version 2.1.5* Don’t bother to get the game because you don’t even load into the game ### 1/5 — My opinion *2026-01-13, version 2.1.5* It sucks on the ad. It shows that it’s easy to play on the thing it like won’t let you get out let you get on and it’s annoying. ### 1/5 — Why? *2025-08-03, version 2.1.5* OK, no hate at all but like when I put in my email and then I put it in my display name apparently my display name is too long and nobody can add me because it’s too long so you need to change that.where u don’t have to change your email. and only change your display name! PLS FIX ### 1/5 — Horrid controls *2025-07-04, version 2.1.5* The controls are absolutely atrocious! How do you expect anyone to honestly enjoy playing this game when you can’t even control where the horse goes half the time. Also, during warm up, make the notification box disappear sooner. This game needs a TON of work. So disappointing. Will delete as there is no reason to even try. ### 1/5 — 😡 *2025-05-28, version 2.1.5* I hat this game because it’s so hard to control and it’s so hard to know how to do it 😠 the adds or horrible, and horrible for kids I’m sorry it is true . ### 1/5 — Not. Great *2025-05-24, version 2.1.5* It’s to glitche it was fun I would recomond not get this game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 100% get!!!!! *2026-06-14, version 2.1.5* If you like horses then you should so get it!! ### 5/5 — I tried again!😁 *2026-06-04, version 2.1.5* I looked into the game and it said a setting I loved it but please do make the horses less money. ### 5/5 — My opinion *2026-04-11, version 2.1.5* Being able to go on trail rides is one of the things you should put on there because peoples horses don’t wanna be just in their pants and barrel racing and doing poles and also a warm-up arena other than that just being able to have fun is really nice on the game ### 5/5 — I love this game *2026-03-19, version 2.1.5* So I’m ten and Ive been playing this for about a month and I love it very much so I do recommend I love how it’s western because most horse games I find are English and I don’t hate but I also don’t love English riding games or in real life so yes 5 stars. ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS! *2026-02-02, version 2.1.5* Hey I love this game it’s so fun and different graphics but I love them!I would love it if you added a free-roam place ### 5/5 — Fun game *2026-01-19, version 2.1.5* Best game ever ### 5/5 — I love this !! *2026-01-01, version 2.1.5* So it’s an awesome game to start off I like how you can travel with your horses to diff comps and I like how you can warm up aswell you find many show games like this is tack up and your in the arena it’s very nice how you can get a video of your round to post! Or look at how you did I like how you can save up for horses and it’s a nice grind and when I get a horse I am very happy! Awesome game keep it up!! ### 5/5 — I’m a barrel racer and this is “mwah” *2025-07-15, version 2.1.5* This game is great and just needed a lil bit more please a free play arena that you can be in forever if you want please the game would be the best! And please mabye a horse creator!? That would be awesome!!! Love you dear creators ❤️ ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-06-12, version 2.1.5* I absolutely love this game so much because I am a barrel racer so when I’m not at the barn I’m playing this I do think the horses should be a better/ lower price and the horses should be able to be in the pasture/field I also think that the pole bending should be easier and the horses should be able to do western pleasure ### 5/5 — Great game!!! *2025-05-24, version 2.1.5* Great game! Saddle Up is so realistic and a really cute game! The prices in the shop are very “real life”! The horses are adorable and I TOTALLY recommend this game!
