To improve the horse's stats in stamina, jumping and trust, the player needs to practice with the horse in different training stages and nurse the horse in the stable area.
Each tournament requires a certain horse level, so the player must keep his attention to the horse’s stats through the whole game.
The tournaments consist of the challenges dressage, jumping and cross-country.
These challenges take place on various tournament grounds, indoor and outdoor.
The most desirable tournaments are the ones in the world championship stadium in the German town of Aachen (home to the World Equestrian Games 2006).
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks Riding Star for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Riding Star to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2008.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Riding Star, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo DS titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
