A Fully-Grown Foal - Level 10 Mustang from Star Stable Horse App

I'm finally close to purchasing my level 10 Mustang, that I raised from a foal, through the StarStable app. He's level 9 right now, and I haven't done my daily chores yet because, while I want to purchase him, I still haven't decided on the right name. I love that they let you change the horse's name up until the moment you purchase it, but now I have too many options! My initial choice was Wildfeather but now I've come up with a long list of names to contend with it. (Oh btw I chose the "mouse grey" pinto Mustang.) The other options that are tied with it now are: Spiritecho Timelord Smokedream Lightrebel Powerplay I like the ones that have definite meanings, but I like some obscure ones as well. These are totally out of order but it's the order I thought it in: I like Lightrebel because it makes me think of  Star Wars and being a rebel Jedi using the light side of the Force. I like Spiritecho because it's catchy and makes me thin...

New Horses and Some Regret

A few logins ago, I bought two new horses with some excess star coins. The first was the gray Lipizzan. The second was the speckled Mustang. (Yes, I'm sure there's a real word for that, but I don't know what it is. It looks sorta like an Appaloosa but it's a Mustang so...) Meet Silverwings! He's obviously not impressed with Chaun's antics. Give me the rainbow "pet" already!!! I've leveled both only slightly but now that the app to raise your own baby horse in Star Stable is out, I sorta regret buying Meteorsmash. I'm going to raise the pinto Mustang, which is prettier than but similar in color to the horse I have now. I like the way the next horse, which is currently a foal, looks more. I've tentatively named my foal Wildfeather, but I really like that I can change it whenever I'd like. What do you think of the name? I was also thinking of like Cloudflyer or maybe Spiritfeather or Skyfeather. I like feather for this one, be...

Jorvik Wild Horses are here... and I love them!

Jorvik Wild Horses, along with Gary Goldtooth, are back and bigger and better than ever! From the Star Stable website : How awesome are they?!!?! Just as with the ones last year, these magically transform when you get into a magic, natural area. This is the green version, which is quite pretty as well. The text in the purchase menu reads: " Around Jorvik's less accessible spots, herds of free-roaming Jorvik Wild Horses can be found. This breed is thought to be particularly special owing to the vibrant colours and patterns on the horses' body and hair. Colours such as blue, red, green, purple and orange aren't unusual, and even the horses' eyes can be unusually coloured in violet, red or clear blue. The horse is believed to have emerged in symbiosis with the Pandoric energy flows, which is said to explain their unique colourings. Many also believe the horses to have certain magical abilities. Jorvik Wild Horses are usually a little shorter...

She's Back...

Hey #StarFam, today's the day... somehow, magically, wondrously... I was able to get into Star Stable today! Previously I was stuck at 5% downloading, but it finally finished today and I was able to play the game! So now, here I am! Now that I can play, I got a chance to check out the super cute Lipizzans and the new dappled gray horses that were recently released. Now I'm having trouble choosing either the new, darker gray English Thoroughbred and the lighter gray Lippizan. After reading a lot of things about SSO online, I have decided that MAYBE there is something to the whole rumored horse speed thing. For the first time ever, I'm open to the idea that certain horses are innately faster than others. This has not been confirmed, and I don't think the debates will ever end, but for now let's just say that I'm open-minded. If the video I watched is correct, then the English Thoroughbred (frequently referred to as ETB) is faster than the Lipizzan. I ...

Gone but Not Forgotten

Howdy fellow Star Riders. Unfortunately, I have been unable to play for the past three months. The game has stopped working completely for me. When I attempt to run the .exe, if it opens and runs at all, it begins an update and gets stuck around 5%. Usually, the game just refuses to run at all. I've contacted customer support about this several times and they haven't helped me at all. :( It really bums me out that a game that I've invested so much time and money in is completely unresponsive about helping me and other fellow players who have Windows 10 (as that is the only conclusion we've drawn so far). I'm not even sure if it is because I run Windows 10, or if it's something unrelated, because there has been no troubleshooting done and I haven't been walked through anything. I hope y'all are enjoying the game. Have fun and take care. Happy trails.

Shires, Piggies, and Ponies!

Well, I finally did it. I bought a Shire! After much deliberation, I finally decided on the gray one, and named her Noblesoul. To come up with the name, I went through a ton of name-play, and finally decided to look up the meaning of the name Brienne – the extremely tall female guardian/knight from Game of Thrones – because she's awesome and also very tall. Her name means noble and possibly also strong, and I finally settled on this name. Here are some other names I came up with: Noblebelle Noblegaze Noblechampion Guardianknight and Silverwind Silverwind has additional special meaning to me, because the Dothraki name I chose for myself is Vizhadori, which approximates to 'silver gust of wind'. Here are some pics of Noblesoul. I wasn't very excited to spend all my remaining star coins on her, especially when I so badly want a Welsh Pony, but I decided the Shire has much more utility because it is as fast as any other horse an...

Magical Jorvik Wild Horses - Get Them While You Can!!!

Sometimes I forget to check the news page on the Star Stable website at least once a week, so I'm super glad I remembered to this time. For this week only, there are three magical horses available outside Firgrove. They change colors to become totally unique once they are out in nature, away from towns and stables. Star Stable says they listened to us to come up with these designs. Also, the Jorvik Wild Horse is a completely new model that we haven't seen before. Here's the link to the news article on the Star Stable website:  https://www.starstable.com/en/article/2678 Here's a screenshot that will hopefully help you find where Gary Goldtooth and the horses are: Here are some pictures of the new horses: In the screenshots you can read the information about the breed, too. I chose the purple one and named it Stardust. This is what the purple one looks like before it transforms. Here's a great shot of the transformation as it happens. ...
