Community Insight:
They should create a multiplayer mode to be able to play with your friends, but good game either way.
The game used to be so much better when you had a career mode and you could breed horses to try and get a better horse and save mares as broodmares and studs and it would track their winnings, please bring it back.
We loved this game when we were younger because it had stables and you could buy and race your horses. This game only has one race at a time and one horse… No fun!! U can win ever time. Gets boring after two races.
We <3 this game! We don't know what we would do with out it, Its so fun.
We recamend to those who luv racing.
It's great we love it! We recommend it especially if you are bored.
This is a great game! It's one of the few we can get on our 2nd generation iPod, and it works fine. BTW, if you look carefully, you can find the save on the main screen in the horse's dust cloud.
We like it and all. But u loose ur sense speed and statima every time u get off the app. So we would recommend Getting the full version. In the game u get to name ur horse and control sense statima and speed of the horse and pick the color of the horse.
Get the full version its a lot better than the lite the full is totally worth it.
We love how all the other horses get a bunch of speed and stamina right off the bat but you have to wait till yours finally kicks in like theirs until 1!! It's sooooo stupid.
Hey if you pay attention to the game it tells you to buy the full version and you get a barn with extra horses. By the way the gam is awesome it's very addictive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'.
It needs a barn ware you scoop poop.and feed and groom. Needs some work. Altho it is fun.
We love this game! Fun and easy to play. But it needs some things, u should be able to breed, train and take care of your horses. A MUST get.
We're not a horse lover and we loooooooove it. : ).
Maybe thats why its called TAP jockey.
This is what the LITE version needs 1 a horse breeding farm 2 more levels 3 more horses to choose from Overall a great game. We defenetly think you should get this before you get the full version.
We wish we could groom,feed,and maybe breed and make are horse practice and race with real people! But it's a total get! But please do it! Five stars from us if u get a update.
The game is ok, BUT it crashes, ALOT! Two screens at once, or just kicking you out of the game completely. Fix the crashing and add the ability to breed, train and even take care of the horse. We might consider it.
This app is so crappy don't get it it just keeps crashing and sometimes 2 screens r there at once and all messed up! This app is.
This is so boring all you do is tap the screen. Could be so much better. Don't waste your time.
