Hmmmmmm not quite.In fact it looks like you have to pay for everything around here.
This is why I haven't looked for a mentor,as I'm sure that doing so will only compromise me to spend more money in the higher features of the game.
In general this looks like a good game,but a cash cow as well.
I think it would have been more promising had it not been so expensive.
Good luck to all.;-)

This Game is Free , your earn your points buy being a jockey , you can also do some Free points offers , but lets face facts, you have only been here a couple of days and have a lot of learning to do , this is the main reason its free , once you learn about how it all works then its upto you to what what level you play the game . Give it time and dont be so quick to judge .
There is plenty of help via the forums or you can be a student and you will get bonus points aswell .
Give it time and get learning .
Good Luck

The point offers require you subscribe to something in order to get points so it's not free.
Also,the mentorship is very few points as well that don't give you much of a heads up to get to the better features of the game.
I am under disability,plus the current state of financial affairs don't allow many people to dish out $10 a month to access all of the features the game offers.
This is why I've chosen not to pick a mentor and simply play the jockey game for free.
I was going to breed my first horse yesterday until I found out about the monthly fees,which would entrap me into paying for the game.
So no,I think the software is only a lure towards getting me to pay.
No thanks.

I managed to breed my first 3 horses on free points. I have been playing the game for months and only just subscribed as VIP. The game is AWESOME! You can have a great time on this game for free. I only became a VIP to improve my stable.
Take your time and enjoy the game.

You must've administered your points very well cause mine just don't add up because the ones I earn through jockeying are much more than the ones shown on my account.
And God forbid I play the betting game cause I'd probably be wiped out in a hurry.lol
The instructions are scattered all over the place,I would've preferred a step-by-step guide on how to play the darned thing,but all I've seen so far in a sloppy interface with info scattered and written in morse code.
No wonder they need mentors!lol

It's also ironic how the banner which leads to the supposed free points says "free"....lol
People are gullible and will believe anything,but the game has much more spam than anything else.
Also;what is this about:
($0.28 Pts Discount)
Already I'm being discounted and the interesting part is that it has no explanation under it that says why.
Hmmm.I smell something fishy.

To judge this game after just 2 days is insane...Hopefully God can give you a step by step guide out the door. LOL

To refute with a defense and not facts just solidifies my argument.
If it weren't so-then I would be told how to get the supposed free points to go on to larger sections of the game.
As it stands,all I see around here is a promising game with too many lures into spending and no availability towards anything truly free.
Not stating a position on any matters is what leads to towards indifference and this in turns leads to monopolies by the powers that be in control of whatever that may be.
If by stating my opinion or questions I am shown the door,it just proves how intolerant a dissenting opinion is nowadays,but you'll suffer from it as well whenever you need to express your own.
No,I will not leave and I will ask all the questions I want with respect because that is what this forum is for.
I am also sure that if this game is to improve,the moderators and owners will appreciate all those who add to criticism of what they feel can be improved.
Thanks for your reply,
William.

You were the one that disrespected this game and company by your comments and remarks only after 2 days with knowing absolutely nothing and it will NOT be tolerated. If you want to learn about this great game do so but do not critique it with no knowledge. Good luck finding help with a 2 year old approach!!!

Again I ask to someone that may know...is there any real way of getting free points on here?
Without having to give up my cell number?
Has there been anyone that has played for a substancial amount of time without having to pay?
It looks like a promising game so I am asking to see if there's a way around it.
Thanks in advance,
William.

I would highly reccomend getting a mentor, these are individual people who are here to help with the game, and simply help explain the many features of this very complex game, no pressure to become a VIP whatsoever. Sign up to be a student, and earn 5,000 points right away. There is also a get help section with lots of basic info on the game both in written text, and in many cases video help here is a link. http://www.horseracegame.com/community/game_and_community_info To say the game is not free is simply not true, you can do anything you want for free here...will it take you a little time to get some points...sure. To pass judgement after 2 days is really not fair, as I said before the game is complex, and multidimensional. Right now you can earn 1,000 points a day from jockeying horses in quick start mode. You have full access to challenge buddy, and can complete free point offers (there are a few Non-Spam good ones). Also try and keep in mind this is a business, and most people don't go into business to lose money. Paying customers are sure to get more benefits, without them there wouldn't be a game. P.M. Me with any questions, I will be glad to help.

True,but I never passed judgement.
It was my way of asking questions.
It's funny too that you would answer because it was you I picked as a mentor.Or at least on request.
Thanks for the ample answer and I will Pm you if any questions pop up.

Billyboy, the game is free for flyingdaaka. Flyingdaaka enjoys running races both in the community forum as well as under private account, where Flyingdaaka can create his own tournaments and races. Flyingdaaka has been a member for some time, and has not ever forked over one single penny.
Flyingdaaka is not criticizing the establishments offer to enter stables, community tournaments, etc. however, by taking the free approach, the game can be enjoyed tremendously. Under private account, one can select any race type with any horses, run the race as spectator or jockey, even can create a derby or tournament.

There are plenty who play for free on here,and even more who manage a small stable for just the 10 bucks a month(roughly 33 cents a day)And if you become a VIP you can Jockey for 6,000 points a day!That's $18.00 a month in ""FREE""(that's free)community points.Did i mention they're free?

I have joined this game about a year and still learning new features everyday until now..spend a lot of money but still not get perfect achievement from my stable..nevermind :)
What I've learned, the first thing we need is be patient and no regret because this game most exactly just for fun. What you will get here...nothing !! except enjoying the game and add new friends..
What did you expected ? Present ? You can't get it here..everyone just to maintain their reputation as a good trainer, earned some community point, other else jockey tourneys, bettor tourneys. challenge buddy. All of this is about reputation..so, get yourself enjoy, learn more and more knowledge here, asking for any confusion from experted person then you can start talking..

Mr. motron, Flyingdaaka was directing his comments at modgraphix. Flyingdaaka still senses some pented up anger and hostility for modgraphix. Perhaps he is having a rough morning running the races.

Bily i am new here... only 2 weeks.. i have not spent $1 and my first big race day is next week.. did you get your free horse? hope its better then mine LMAO..
but anyway the game is free my friend.. you only need to spend cash if you dont play the game right.
I ride in the community races everyday to get my limit 1000 points ..
thats 30,000 a month. plus points for freinds joining is 10,000 each freind..
now if you sign up as a student you get 5000 when the mentor excepts you,, then 20,000 i think after the mentor period.
If you play the game like me you can easily build your stable, enter tournaments., training, riding and betting.
Give the game a go my friend im sure you'll love it......
Great guys/gals here to help, the mentors are awesome, "love ya MOD"... ( hope i get apple badge for that wink wink)
Everything here in the game is so much fun, enjoyment is high and the atmisphere in general is calm and pleasing.
OHHHHH crap you stupid nag faster faster, grrrrrrrrrrr get off the fence you idiot.. omg where you going.. noooooooo other way you fool.. ...to late now pull him up ..##@##&*
SORRY was in training my horse..
Anyway best of luck mate.. you will love it here.

billy when you say more points earnt then in your count. do you refer to riding in quick start?
In my case i find i need to ride 1 or 2 extra races before the points actualy appear.
this maybe just my connection but for me.... i ride race and win, get say 400 points, that 400 wont appear on my screen until i finish race 2.. and so on.. also i think free members limited to 500 points won per ride so if you won 800 points in a race only 500 of them will go into your account until you reach 1000 points.. then riding is just fun but i prefer to get 1000 then over to advance mode and train my nag.
.hope im right or i look stupid lmao..

The basic game id free but like anything else in life from food to education even to entertainment if you spend a little money the level of engagement and fun is increased. For .33 per day you can get unlimited hours of pure rock solid heart pounding fun.
Go to the movies these days and 50.00 3 people will be entertained in a non interactive way for less then 2 hours .
Good luck to you no matter what level you play at .

Thanks all-I'm out to breed my first winner(I hope),and yes slavedave I'm running a lot of those quick start races,I hope those points are being attributed because I read somewhere that I can get community races through a button I cannot find so it stays in private races all the time.
I already have my first mentorship class with chris who's a class act all the way and hope to learn more.
Thanks to all including Mod....there are gentler ways of expressing a point and I guess I was kind of harsh.
Sorry to all who were offended and rock on everyone.

in reference to you comment about 6000 for vip makes it $18.. i might have missed somthing there billy. i think vip status of $10/mnth allows you to get 6000 points linit per day up riding in quick start. compared to limit of 1000 if free like us..
Hope that helped ya to.

All ok i will wait see how he runs in his first tournament..
Now my friend your mentor will help you with everything but if you want a heads up go thru the forum. find the post "solo runs in training'" i think that was it. richardmanias has awesome info in there you will need. you can get all the same info in help section it just takes longer to read it and understand it fully. or ask MOTRON which post it was.. thats where i met all these great guys.

There is a issue with players trying to get their first horse free . The system is not working correctly and is being looked at . This will only effect players getting their very first horse that is free. Players using points or cash have no issues .
This issue was caused by the roll out of the new horses FN-PN . The development team will resolve in a few days

First I do not tolerate rude comments . If you have something to say then say it in a proper manor . You have now insulted 2 players here . These are 2 paying players that support this game and community . It is there support that helps make this game grow . What has your contribution been? Just rude and obscure comments that I had to edit . Yes the game is FREE but let's ALSO HAVE SOME RESPECT FOR PAYING PLAYERS WHO SUPPORT US.
The next rude comment of yours that I have to edit will be your last .
I have edited your comments again because I feel this is what you were really trying to say but just need a little guidance
