 So / So game playApr 01, 2008
The game mechanics are sort of hokey. By that, I mean there's really nothing to it more than marking off items on a checklist. I re-read the instructions twice to make sure that was really all there was to it. Sure, you absorb a little horse knowledge out of it, but the learning isn't really important to the strategy - more important is landing on the right squares and the horse you start out with. Think horse monopoly.
While it is very well made, it was boring (sorry, but nobody in our family likes it - even our horse obsessed daughter). Get Herd Your Horses above this. It is VERY fun and what you learn from it is actually unique among horse games (wild horse habits).

 Great GameJan 11, 2006
My daughter got this game for Christmas and we all love it. It is a fun, educational game that the whole family enjoys! My daugther is 6 and my son is 9 and they both enjoy it! Highly recommended.

Gallop Home with this game under your armDec 03, 2005
I bought this game about this time a year ago for my daughter who is 9. It was a quick "That's nice" and then on to the other presents; but the two of us set down and started playing Gallop Home, it quickly became her favorite game. I know a little about horses and the various breeds and what those breeds are primarily focused on doing. I never expected this game to be educational in that way. My daughter who loves this game had no background at all in horses, but now she understands the various uses for the Arabian or the Thoroughbred and she knows as she works her way around the board which spaces are the best to land for that particular breed she is playing during the game. Neither of us really care who wins(I guess you can tell she beats me most of the time); but it's fun and I get a real thrill everytime she asks me to play it with her . . . OK . . . fast forward a year . . . she is still wanting to play it every day and I'll take that over TV anytime. BUY THIS GAME - - - play it a couple times and once you get a feel for it, you and the kids will be hooked.

We Love Gallop Home!Sep 29, 2005
My daughter received this game for her 6th b-day. We have played this game a number of times and just love it! Not only is it a fun horse game, it is one of those games that your child can play alone as there is no way to cheat!
If you are a horse lover, this game is a must! Great for older kids as well!

New Run of Gallop HomeJul 08, 2005
Thank you for all the great reviews on the Gallop Home Game! The first Run of Gallop Home game did have a few games that the molds on the horse heads did not cure properly. This has been fixed with new type of material that is used! No more broken pieces! Sincerely, the inventor of Gallop Home ...Jennifer
