Okay, so I’ve been playing this mobile game, “Horse Valley,” for a while now, and let me tell you, the breeding part can get pretty confusing. At first, I was just randomly pairing horses, hoping for the best. Yeah, that didn’t work out so well. I ended up with a bunch of, well, not-so-great horses.
So, I decided to get serious and figure this breeding thing out. I needed a system, a way to keep track of everything. I started digging around online, but most of what I found was either incomplete or just plain overwhelming. Lots of complex terms I didn’t get. I needed to create a easy chart for myself.
My Simple Breeding Chart Journey
First thing I did was, I grabbed a piece of paper and a pen. Old school, I know, but it works for me. I started listing out all the different horse breeds I had in the game.
- Arabian
- Mustang
- Friesian
- …and so on
Then, next to each breed, I wrote down their main stats. Things like speed, stamina, and jump. The in-game descriptions give you a hint, but I wanted actual numbers to compare.
After that, I started experimenting. I bred different combinations of horses, carefully noting the parents’ stats and then the offspring’s stats. It was slow going at first. Lots of trial and error. Lots of “meh” foals.
But then, I started seeing patterns. Certain combinations seemed to produce better results than others. For example, breeding a high-speed Arabian with a high-stamina Mustang often resulted in a foal with decent stats in both areas. That’s a win!
I added these successful combinations to my chart. I used different colored pens to mark which pairings worked well, and which ones were duds. My chart started looking like a rainbow, but a very useful rainbow!
My paper chart got pretty messy after a while, so I transferred everything to a simple spreadsheet on my computer. It’s much easier to update and keep organized that way. It’s still a work in progress, of course. There are so many combinations to try, and new horses get added to the game, so it has been updated very often.
Now every time I am going to breed, I will open my chart. Then find the horses I have. The final step is to breed them according to the chart record!
The chart isn’t perfect, and there’s still some luck involved, but it’s definitely helped me breed better horses in “Horse Valley.” I’m getting more foals with the stats I want, and that makes the game even more fun. I’m pretty proud of it now!
