Unfortunately they've not shown any of this in the demo.

Goodness knows, the full game may go on to offer some of the most extraordinarily realistic and compelling equestrian gaming this side of Red Dead Redemption.
#Planet horse demo series
International races are often held in flat. You will discover three gaming modes in Planet Horse and can prepare to experience a fantastic adventure via the Jump mode, taking part in a series of events with your horse cross country, where you have to find unique objects to personalize your mount and avatar and Fantasy rides, where you can relax mounted on seven breeds of horse available in the game. Then, choose a horse and personalize it changing the. At first, you create your avatar and give it a name.
But hey, it's all very pink, and little girls like pink, right? It's for girls! The Dark Horse Series boards are thoroughbred race machines, theyre built for going fast. Planet Horse is a horse riding game in which you can enjoy nature and horses from your room. The camera, madly, cannot be rotated freely, meaning (with the lack of direct control) turning corners requires you to click somewhere near the edge of the screen and hope the camera will eventually catch up. Don't have your hand mysteriously fall off midway through and you'll likely win the event. The nearest you get to anything approaching a game is the jumping, and this requires you to click your mouse three times. If this is any representation of the full game, then it's about as involving as an empty shoebox. You can go for a walk picking up freakishly large pinecones, floating on some sort of alien column of mystical light, brush the dirt off your horse in the stable, practice jumping some fences, and spend some "coins" on new equipment for your horse, or even your own character. In the demo you have access to a brief example of a few bits and pieces the full game (£15) has to offer. You can create your own horse at the start with a reasonably detailed horsey-character creator, that for some reason also includes a zebra. This is a game so squarely aimed at young girls that it doesn't even contain an option to play as a boy. In fact, this appears to be a planet of horses and humans, with once again humans in control. What evolutionary path would they take if neither tamed (nor eaten) by humans, nor preyed upon by predators? Would they have developed cars? If they did, would they have gone via horse-drawn vehicles? Subjugated horses forced to pull along carriages containing the privileged ponies? Surely the size of elevator button necessary to accommodate a hoof would limit the potential height of buildings? These are all questions I would want answered by a game with such a name, but absolutely nothing in this demo indicated the matters would arise. An entire world devoted exclusively to horses.
Let's think that world through for a moment. I MUST HAVE MORE! I must play the demo for Planet Horse.

Following on from Farming Simulator and The Antiques Roadshow, my appetite for high-octane, adrenaline-fuelled gaming entertainment has become insatiable.
