But again love the game. X ### 4/5 — Free mode!! *2026-08-12, version 2.3.5* I love this game so much, but something that would make it better would be a free ride mode! Where you can explore and have a full experience! I’d play this game a lot more, other ppl too! ### 3/5 — Fun. . . *2026-08-12, version 2.3.5* You know, it is overall really cool, i win lots of races. Yada, but we need open world and trail riding! Plus, and this really bugs me, we should be able to rename our horses. Like, Artax Kelpie? What is up with that? Overall, really fun, exhilarating, and calming/bounce off the walls. RECOMMENDED!!! ### 4/5 — Very good quality,minor issues.please leave response *2026-08-07, version 2.3.5* hello!this game is amazing,the speed you level up at,the breeding compartment,and just the overall game mechanics!but,some small issues are occurring for me unfortunately.i just came from the game,and I decided to breed my two horses,and I never got the horse but still paid coins.this was really frustrating as I lost money for nothing.second isn’t a problem, Just a suggestion!I live the racing,but it would be very nice if you added a control setting where your camera can move around.also lots of the tack,manes,and brusheshe’s cost a lot.thanks for reading if you did!EDIT:sorry the horse that I never got was actually just me not having enough boxes ### 4/5 — Good *2026-07-25, version 2.3.5* Pretty good game for younger kids, maybe 10 and under. If your looking for a more realistic horse game that still has racing and breeding, Rival Stars Horse Racing is amazing ### 4/5 — Are there bots in the game? *2026-07-18, version 2.3.5* This game is fun and I can totally play for hours BUT, I feel like there are bots in the game. Is this true? ### 4/5 — :P *2026-07-07* Eu amo cavalos eu adorei esse jogo só que o problema é que eu n tenho escova aí meu cavalo fica todo sujo 😩 ### 3/5 — Please delete the brushes *2026-07-05, version 2.3.5* Hi! I am in love with this game! It's so fun, graphics are great, an it's a nice and challengeling game! Except... The horses get very dirty very easily, and you need to brush them. But the thing is, a the brushes don't do a lot, no matter how much I buy. And my horses all have white spots and they are fading. So do you think you can delete brushes?? It would help me SO much! But tysm if you read this. XOXO ### 4/5 — Review *2026-05-24, version 2.3.5* I really like this game- my only thing is that I wish there were more races after the campaign is completed because I finished the campaign and now the game has become a bit boring but other that this is an amazing game and I really love it ### 2/5 — Needs a bit more.... *2026-05-05, version 2.3.5* The game is fun for a but it gets repetitive and boring fast. Theres not a lot to do outside of race and breed horses. ### 4/5 — Love this game but… *2026-03-26, version 2.3.4* This game is GREAT but… it kinda gets boring. So I was hoping you could make a free mode where you just ride your horse on like trails or in fields or something. Maybe you could make that part online so you can play with friends. So that way it's not only races. I also like that this game doesn’t have ads! So keep that part up! So yeah, I enjoy this game but there are just a few perks to add. And I pretty much just told you all of them. So, yeah, overall, this game is pretty cool, but gets a little boring! Anyway, just wanted to give you a feedback, and keep up the great work!! Have a great day/night!!! ### 3/5 — Buggy *2026-03-24, version 2.3.4* I just recently started playing this game. Unfortunately it disconnects from the internet all the time and it currently wont even load. It hasn’t been update in 9 months. It appears that the devs need to do an update. There are a lot of halloween themes as well. If I could get the app to work, it seems like a lot of fun. ### 4/5 — Please *2026-03-17, version 2.3.4* Update ### 4/5 — Need help for my email account *2026-03-11, version 2.3.4* So I play Wild shade all the time, but I stopped playing for a while, and today I woke up and upgraded wild shade and it took all my progress away. So I put in my email to forever save my progress and right now it’s not letting me save the progress. And it’s my first time putting it in the progress. Also, I would like to say, I LOVE THIS GAME!!! The horses are just so beautiful. Out of all the horse games I’ve played, this one is the BEST! Thank you for reading my review and thank you for creating this game. Edit: I got my brand new phone 4 months ago and now I reinstalled wildshade and I just found out I can sign in back into my account which is very sad for me because I had a very good account and I was very good but now unfortunately I lost my account due to this update being taken away. ### 5/5 — Uhh…it’s boring now update please *2026-03-07, version 2.3.4* Hi I have had this game for two years now and it’s been great until this recent update, please fix the bugs and add a way to link gmail account to save progress and to transfer data please! I really enjoy it but it’s been unplayable lately.. ### 5/5 — I Love Horses! *2026-02-21, version 2.3.4* Horses have always been my favorite animal and I’ve been playing Wildshade when I have not been riding my real horse. Wildshade is a great way to enjoy horses without having to deal with a horse who acts like vet bills are free. I definitely recommend this game and totally give it a 5 out of 5! I do hope that whoever invented this game decides to do a dressage section though. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Used to love this game *2026-08-31, version 2.3.5* I loved this game it was my favourite till I,offloaded it as I want using it much I want to point out I OFFLOADED IT didn’t delete it today I reinstalled it and all my progress has been reset all the horse si and gone all my tack my character everything is gone and I’ve had to completely reset everything It’s not my device it’s happend to lots of other people on this game ### 1/5 — Broken down *2026-06-26, version 2.3.5* full of glitches and errors ### 1/5 — Horse *2026-06-11, version 2.3.5* Add unicorn to breeding horse slots ### 1/5 — Accounts *2026-05-30, version 2.3.5* I don’t know why you did it but taking away being able to put your account in to retrieve your old saves is a low blow I’m a returning player/daily player and taking it away hurts I’ve dropped so much money on this game just for it to go to waste😭please bring it back I miss this game ### 1/5 — Abandoned game *2025-10-21, version 2.3.4* This game used to actually be fun and have a lot of potential before the developers got too greedy, but it has long since been abandoned. Email verification has also been removed, which means there is no way to get your account back if your game data gets wiped, which is what happened to me (and I still don't know why). ### 1/5 — SCAM!! *2025-08-04, version 2.3.4* Got a new phone, they removed the option to get my account back and numerous pretty horses I paid for with REAL MONEY. They refuse to add the option back so I can have my account, or give me a refund. These people are SCAMMERS at the finest!! Do not give these developers your money. ### 1/5 — Lost All Gameplay *2025-08-03, version 2.3.4* Didn’t play for a week due to being on holiday, came back and my entire game has been reset and lost. Whenever I open the app, it just prompts me to create a new character. Months of gameplay and paid content lost. I paid for horseshoes and horses and they’re gone. ### 1/5 — Pls Fix the Camera *2025-04-09, version 2.3.3* The camera gave me motion sickness during the races and I couldn’t play anymore :( ### 1/5 — No me lo puedo descargar *2025-01-04* Lo tengo en la nube y no se descarga el juego una solución porfavor **Developer response:** Hi there, please reach out to our team if you believe you have encountered an issue. You can reach them via support@trophy-games.com ### 1/5 — BAD 😡 *2025-01-04, version 2.3.3* SO WHEN I UPDATED THE GAME IT MADE ME RE START AND I LOST ALL MY HORSES SO 1 STAR IM NOT EVEN PLAYING IT ANYMORE BC I HATE THE GAME AT THIS PONIT SO 1 STAR AND I TIRED LOGGING BACK IN BUT IT DIDNT LET ME VERY ANOOYING ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Omg 😱 *2026-08-03, version 2.3.5* This is an amazing game I love ❤️ the graphics and the horses 🐴 but I wish that you ride around without racing too. So can please make that an option otherwise great game 😎🐎🐴🥰😊☺️😘🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 ### 5/5 — Best Game! *2026-07-12, version 2.3.5* I love this game so much! I have an idea though. Pls make a wolf rider one!? That would be so cool. Oh and can you make it to we can create our own character? You know, like, pick the hair color, clothes, eye color, etc? And my favorite horse, I wanted to name Faithful warrior, but it only let me name her faith warrior. Other than that, it’s perfect. Oh and I’ve only gotten the Wing magic like once in over a year. Idk if that’s supposed to happen, but the Wing magic is my favorite. Maybe you could fix that? Thanks for the amazing game! ### 5/5 — Wildshade online *2026-07-11, version 2.3.5* Hello Wildshade team, We would love to see real-time online multiplayer where we can race with real players. If that is too difficult to implement, then we have another suggestion. We would love to see a major update for both the mobile and PlayStation versions that adds a ranch similar to Alicia Online, where players can freely explore, take care of their horses, and spend time outside of racing. It would also be great to have character customization with clothing that can be purchased using premium currency. Players could buy outfits, saddles, and other cosmetic items. Adding pets such as cats or butterflies that follow us around the ranch or during races would also make the game feel more alive. Daily quests would give players a reason to log in every day. For example: * Wash your horse 5 times. * Race on a specific track. * Buy a new saddle. Wildshade is the first official game that truly reminds many players of Alicia Online. There is also an upcoming game on Steam called Driftborn that is inspired by the same concept, and many players are excited for it. I believe Wildshade has the potential to be a highly successful and profitable game. However, the lack of major updates and long-term content has caused it to lose players and limited its growth. With more attention and meaningful updates, I truly believe Wildshade could become one of the leading horse racing games. ### 5/5 — Best Game! *2026-06-05, version 2.3.5* I love this game so much! I have an idea though. Pls make a wolf rider one!? That would be so cool. Oh and can you make it to we can create our own character? You know, like, pick the hair color, clothes, eye color, etc?

Thanks for the great game! ### 5/5 — amazing *2026-05-16, version 2.3.5* Amazing game hard to get moon and sun crystals though but it’s really fun! ### 5/5 — So good but pls add *2026-05-12, version 2.3.5* So I love this game all the horses and stuff but can their pls be free mode and not just race just like ride around cause I like racing but riding freely is more fun pls fix this bye ### 5/5 — Love this game but… *2026-05-01, version 2.3.5* This game is GREAT but… it kinda gets boring. So I was hoping you could make a free mode where you just ride your horse on like trails or in fields or something. Maybe you could make that part online so you can play with friends.

This game has way to many adds and the races are super glitchy and hard to control DO NOT DOWNLOAD ### 5/5 — Recommend this game but needs more updates *2026-03-12, version 2.3.4* Hi, Wildshade team! As a girl who loves horses and fantasy, this game is really enjoyable from the variety of horse options to the crazy and magical races, but I feel like this game could use some more updates. For example, why not add achievements or tasks to the game like breed five horses or place podium in three races and they can be daily, weekly, or monthly tasks. You haven’t updated this game in a while so I hope you found this feedback helpful and that you use it in some way. 😊😃❤️ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
