Your aunt has really let the family estate fall into disrepair – what remains of the once glorious stud farm is now rubble and ruins, and you are the only one who can do anything about it.
Fortunately, you are not alone in your endeavor: In the mayor’s son Gabriel, the local woodsman Mattéo and the architect and master craftswoman Noella, you quickly find invaluable allies to rebuild what once was and make it better than ever before. It is now up to you to restore your family’s name to its former glory – and perhaps even to gain the respect of the prestigious Félix family.
Set off on a poetic horseback adventure and relish the feeling of total freedom in a vast open world. Gallop through various, enchanting landscapes, along the seashore, in the forest, near a coral lagoon, and more. Who knows, maybe you will discover a few secrets as you explore them. Along your rides, you will meet new friends, and complete many missions and quests to save your family’s legacy!
Restore your ruined family ranch to its former glory by rebuilding and personalizing it with various buildings, stables, horse care facilities, supplies and decorations.
During your epic story, you will come across many animals, including wild horses. Learn how to tame and mount them, each one being unique, with different abilities, personality traits, preferences and training needs.

Although it's a good step towards the horse game fans have been longing for, unfortunately, Horse Tales: Emerald Valley Ranch still isn't quite the game players have long wanted.

In the end, Horse Tales: Emerald Valley Ranch missed that first jump and hopefully the developers will release future patches to resolve the control mechanics. As a result, it was a difficult grind for my daughter and I that revolved around the inconsistencies with controls and graphics which hampered our overall enjoyment.

A pleasant and undemanding game clearly aimed at younger players, Emerald Ranch may still interest adults who want to chill out with some lovely horses. Defying all expectations, Horse Tales: Emerald Valley Ranch is actually rather good!
