Mary-Kate and Ashley: Winners Circle is a 2001 video game developed for the Game Boy Color by M4 Ltd. and by Tantalus Media for the PlayStation, and published by Acclaim Entertainment.
Gameplay
Winners Circle is a horse riding game in which the player selects and raises a horse to raise in a series of equestrian challenges. In the Game Boy Color version of the game, players select from a choice of four horses, and complete a collection of courses with obstacles under a time limit to earn ribbons and trophies in order to unlock more horses to ride and courses to complete.[2] The PlayStation version is slightly more complex, with an 'Adventure' mode where players can freely ride their horse, train, feed and groom them, and unlock outfits through earning ribbons in races and competitions.[3]
