Review: My Western Horse 3D

My Western Horse 3D is not the sort of game I would normally search out to purchase.  However, when given the opportunity to give it a test drive, I thought why not.  This game is definitely for the younger crowd, mostly geared towards girls.  Since I have two daughter’s (One in high school) I knew that both would thoroughly enjoy the game.  Before I passed it off to them for approval, I too...
