In Take The Reins, you play the role of a 17 year-old girl who has just joined one of the most well-known and respected riding schools in Scotland. In order to succeed and ultimately become a champion, you must make friends with other students. However, someone doesn't want to be your friend - they want you out of the academy.There are six championships and 18 different courses to practice and eventually compete on. Pippa Funnell is a real 3D character in the game, and she's the champion who you aspire to be. Players can organise their activities with a whole new timetable interface. There is also a new aspect to the gameplay that will offer gamers the chance to interact with their horse. You will be able to understand its needs and hopefully gain its trust.Graphically, the game is made even more realistic and exciting by the fact that motion captured horses were used in development. If you are an Equestrian fan, then this game is a must purchase.
