Of the thousands of horse breeds Horse Academy has to offer there are '10' different categories.
Realistic
If it belongs within the natural world it fits here i.e. the Giraffe breed is also considered a Realistic breedable.
Fantasy
When you think Fantasy breedables think unicorns, dragons and even neon colored horses. This is where the horses of your imagination, that don't fit within the Realistic category, belong.
Seasonal
These are breedables designed with specific themes or holidays in mind and only come into rotation during their respective seasons or during a Breed 'em All event.
Mini Games
These are horses that can be won by playing the Mini Game also known as Slots. You can also win them by coming in 1st Place in any of the Leagues after two weeks.
Unique
These horses are more commonly known as Intys or Intentionals. They are made by players and then bought with 4,000LP (Loyalty Points). There will only ever be one of each breed of Unique unless specific arrangements have been made with the original owner and with Andrew Starnes (one of the developers).
Rewards
These are beautiful horses designed with imagination and an artistic flare that brings them that one step up from a Fantasy breedable. Rewards can be bought in the Store for Loyalty Points and can be put into rotation upon request from a developer or mod/helper.
Seasonal Rewards
These are Rewards designed with specific themes or holidays in mind and only come into rotation in the Store to be bought with Loyalty Points during their respective seasons or during a Breed 'em All event.
