This usually doesn't happen to me, but from the first time I logged in I was automatically hooked. First off, before I even knew really how to play, I became addicted to the breeding part. I had never played a genetics-based sim before, and I loved trying to produce all the different colors. The artwork of the horses is beautiful, and I was surprised to see how many color combinations there were. The showing system is a simple and not overwhelming, which is a plus. I hate when other games make it such a chore. I also really like how I always have something to do. Some people are annoying by all the "clicks", but I enjoy have to check on each horse every day having to feed it and such, it makes it more realistic and gives me something to do. Once I'm done caring for all my horses and entering them in shows, then I can head to the community. Everyone is super nice, and the vast art community is fun to lurk if I'm not looking to buy anything. I feel welcome even though I've barely been playing for a month. The upgrade and credit system is very reasonable to me. The players are NOT greedy. It was surprising at first how low people were charging for credits and how fast I was able to get an upgrade. I look forward to playing this game everyday, and one of my favorite things is that I can easily play it on the go, on my phone. The setup is simple and easy enough to use on my phone's browser. Overall, Equiverse is probably my favorite sim right now. I've even had a few friends sign up themselves already. I plan to stay for awhile now that I'm settled in. Now the hard part, I need to say the things I don't like. I don't like how slowly the horses age, but I realize how important it is, so I'm not really going to complain. Also, I wish the coding of homepages wasn't so complicated. I'm only good with regular html, but I'm sure there is a good reason behind why the coding isn't so simple. Well that's all I really have to say for now, good job Equiverse!

It might change in the future but for now it stays ^^. Additionally, the HTML is difficult because of XSS (Cross Site Scripting). It basically strips out any code that is malicious (for instance forwarding a member to any other website - imagine the horrors that could bring >_>). I'd love to have normal HTML back, but unfortunately that's why we can't have it at the moment. Again, thank you for the lovely review! <3
