Pros and cons of Tap Jockey app for iPhone and iPad

Tap Jockey app good for

I love playing this game so much so fun,exciting and realistic
If u looking for something like Derby Owners Club... Well at least the racing part. Fun game. Would like to have some kinda multiplayer mode.
you should be able to name your horse and have training and stuff like that. its not worth $2. maybe $1 would be better. Things to add: 1.name your horse 2.make your jockey and pick colors 3.more races 4.training sessions 5.maybe be able to have your own barn or something. this game has lots of potetial but doesnt give it. please enhance the game using my sugestions. My fav. horse is Indigo Blue :D
Tap Jockey is a great game but hard...the controls are easy and everything is simple to move around though out the game. But this game could go far with updates. Like more horses and tracks... being able to pick tournament... having horses you can custimize and a career mode. but overall Tap Jockey is a good buy.
i`m not that big on horse raceing you know with jockeys & stuf but i love horses & love to ride,(english mostly) p.s. i love you Maverick!!!!(horse i ride):) :)
Ok so this game does work with the new iPod considering I got one. Maybe you just need to wait :). The game is challenging but very fun once you get the hang of it.

Some bad moments

Junk! It didnt let me save. It gets really tiring and I dont think its fun. Waste of 2 dollars!
It looks like a really fun game but I WOULDNT KNOW because it isnt compatible with iTouch 3rd generations. (newest iTouch) A lot of people like me got the iTouch new version for Christmas, Hannukah, ect. so these people cant play this game, even if we already bought it. >:( a lot of people complained that this game needs to be updated anyways, so making it compatible with all iTouchs and iPhones would be a great idea.
This game is not worth $1.99!!!!!!! Maybe if it was a little bit easier to control or something it would be worth it!!!!!!! Till you fix it enjoy your 1 star for now!!!!!!!
i hate this game so much because i bought it but i cant play it so dont buy it. it wastes your money!! this game is STUPID
The game should be updated to new phone sizes, but that wont happen because this game is no longer being supported by the developer.
