Let’s raise our community’s awareness of forest protection and biodiversity through the new event on Howrse! Read more below and start your Equestrian hike today!


How to play?

Your goal is to move your pawn across the game board and pass the obstacles that are on it by using cards. You will always have in your hand:

A switch to move from one path to another

1 to 4 random cards (depending on your level)

To use a card, you need to spend tokens.

Sometimes, you might face obstacles on your way that you have to counter.

Aside from that, you can collect useful items during your hike:

Tokens


Game items


Fragments of the Plant Kingdom horses


Pass successive checkpoints that are more and more distant from each other in order to approach the event's jackpot - Hydruntine.

You can choose between several checkpoint gifts when you pass a checkpoint finishing line.

When you pass the last checkpoint, you win the special horse, Hydruntine.

As a result of that, we have included the special Community Objective in this event. Plant cuttings at the hiking checkpoints together with the community to help Ecologi plant trees around the world.

The counter will track the progression of all players from our global community and we will help Ecologi to plant trees in the real world, based on the number reached by this counter.

Daily Goals Change Formula
cornucopia
It's a big part of the game that we're changing: the daily objectives are getting a new look and getting a new way of working to provide more flexibility.
It can sometimes be frustrating to see your daily objectives gauge reset when you haven't logged in for a single day in the week. The goal of this change is to make it more advantageous to complete daily objectives. You will always earn a Cornucopia per week if you are diligent!
So what is changing?
The Daily Objective gauge now contains 10 slots and resets after a week.
You will need to complete 10 out of 14 Daily Goals in a week to get a Cornucopia.
The gauge no longer resets if you haven't completed an objective on a day.
The gauge resets every Tuesday at your version update time.
Now, for the duration of a contest, Daily Objectives will reward you with Divine Fragments available in Tyche's Crown!
This way, you can distribute the completion of your daily objectives in the way you want, without having your gauge reset if you miss a login day! Of course, you still have 2 objectives per day, and they can still be exchanged once per day.
If your gauge is full, you can continue to earn passes and shards when you complete your objectives. The cornucopia opens automatically if you haven't done so when you reset.


Here is an overview of the changes to Tyche's Crown:

- Its price is now unique and permanent: 170 passes.
- It is no longer possible to reduce your price in a contest.
- We have adjusted the probability of some gifts to reflect the new value of the crown.

Also new: you can try to obtain the divine of the contest in the crown of Tyche for 24 hours more (after the end of the contest).

The Nutcracker's perks should be ...Earth Element..12 x aging points and Squirrel

The Great Challenge and Lottery

Changelog -
New Trophies and Collections


The changelog will still be in French when the preprod starts, the translation should arrive by the end of the week.

The trophy and collections system is entirely reworked.

It was unfair to players and unlike many other games, trophies could be won and then lost if you did not have the required horses anymore. We wanted to change this system by reworking the trophy system, making it more rewarding, and adding a collections system.

� Trophies

You will now obtain trophies by completing specific objectives. Obtained trophies remain forever.

There are 4 rarities for the trophies:

Bronze

Silver

Gold

Diamond


Each trophy gained will grant some points that fill a reward gauge. When the gauge is filled the player obtains a gift and the gauge is reset.

The gifts can be precious black market items (such as Horn of Plenty, Philosopher's Stone…), but also divine horses (Tarman, Kaktos, even a Xanthos), depending on the progression.

On the new Trophy page, players have access to the following information:
• Number of trophies by rarity
• Last trophies obtained
• Next trophies
• Progression of the reward gauge
• Number of points granted by each rarity of trophies
• List of all trophies available
• Listed by categories (customization, breeding, community…)

What happens to previous trophies?

Most trophies have been transferred to the new system, for example, Competition, Seniority, or Equestrian Center. You can validate them now to get all the related gifts!

Some trophies have been moved to the Collections page (horse breeds, special horses, etc.). You'll find more details below.

The Customization trophies have been reset, and you will have to start from zero. You will have to add the item (golden apple, companion, etc...) to a horse again. Items already applied do not count for the customized horses you already own, and those trophies have not been transferred.

New Trophies

New trophies have been added to the existing ones, mainly in the Divine Category where you have to play with them (not only own them).
• Zonkey
• Musketeers
• Metals
• Grail
• Dragons
• Fairy Tales

We will also progressively introduce trophies related to the events.

So far there are:
• Great Challenge: Collect horseshoes
• Lottery: Collect clovers

⭐ Collections

The old collection page was reworked and revamped as well. The system now tracks all elements that can be collected in the game.

• Horse breeds
• Horse's basic coats
• Vintage coats
• Special coats
• Companions
• Special horses
• Backgrounds from Ow's Helios Ray
• Cards of cards events


You will be able to easily see which elements you have already collected and which are missing.

• From missing elements, you can access the direct horses' sales or the product page of this element
• From obtained elements, you can access your breeding farm (the first horse with this element is displayed)


You can see your progression:
• Globally
• By Categories
• By Subcategories


The old collections displayed on the "My other collections" page will not be displayed anymore.

Unlike for Trophies, you will lose your progress in a collection if you don't own a needed horse anymore.

✨ Golden Horseshoes and the Lottery

The Golden horseshoes have been removed from the game and replaced with trophies related to the events.

Now, the condition to enter the end-of-contest Lottery is to have the tutorial finished.

"The Customization trophies have been reset, and you will have to start from zero. You will have to add the item (golden apple, companion, etc...) to a horse again. Items already applied do not count for the customized horses you already own, and those trophies have not been transferred"

I find this extremely unfair and upsetting. I mostly play in the Spanish version and I have been weeks giving companions to my horses to get the trophies. And I don't have them repeated on the BM so I am losing those trophies. Same with golden apples...
What about the most experienced players that have more than 100 lost golden apples?

I agree on this with you. It might be to give all players an even start. Since some do have 100+ of those things and others can never compete against that. Still I spent a lot of passes and even money to get the amount of GA and other to get this far. Feels unfair to me as well.

Do you think we would get the trophie by buying a horse with a customization item (which was given to it before the changes are applied? Or do you have to specifically place the item on them?

This is the trophy rewards list.

So we won't have to start over from zero for the companions trophy? What a relief, I spent too much time and passes to collect them !

Wandering Horses

This time the theme for our wandering horses is movies and movie characters. Will you be able to collect all of the new wanderers?
