Reception

IGN felt it offered a more professional experience than contemporary horse-related games, and deemed it an "off-beat, niche title" from the developer. [2] [6] JeuxVideo wrote that it " manages to strike a balance between its ambitions of pure simulation and its desire for accessibility to a wide audience". [3] Lapresse notes that many horse themes titles were released throughout 2007. [7] Jeuxactu felt it would carry players over until the next major release in the genre. [8] Heise wrote that it was "quite unmistakably a computer game for girls". [9] Meanwhile, PSM3 Magazine UK said "LGEC works, just, but there's really 'neigh' point in playing it". [10]
