More Ponies Make Friendship Even More Magical On iOS, Android

The first update for the My Little Pony game hit iOS today (coming to Android on the 28th) adds three new ponies as well as a handful of additional buildings, decorations, and snow for the winter season. More importantly, Gameloft sends along this video interview with Ashleigh Ball, voice of Rainbow Dash and Applejack.

Included in the update to the mobile game:

  • Ponies - Pip Squeak, Teacher's Pet, and Bowling Pony
  • Buildings - Log Cabin, Ice Cream Shop
  • Decorations - Five holiday-themed items to increase your pizazz
  • Snow - That white stuff that falls from the sky sometimes if you live in a reasonable climate
  • Missions - Ten quests to embark that probably teach you about how awesome being a good person is (seriously, it's pretty great, you should try out the ol' empathy-for-your-fellow-man thing)

I'm glad I live in a world where a woman who can make those noises come out of her larynx can make a living doing so. That's just awesome.

  • Aww man! I've got to wait 8 whole days for the update!

  • I should start playing this some to see if it's any good.

  • so many ponies.....to many ponies......
  • Is this actually good?
  • I always get the stupidest grin on my face whenever I see a FiM related article on Game Informer. Who would've thought just a few years ago that GI would be covering a game about candy colored ponies, let alone people actually caring about that game. What a world. On topic: I heard this game wasn't all that great, unfortunately. Still interested to check it out if I ever get a Smartphone or tablet.
  • Adam Beissener posting a news story about My Little Pony. Never thought I'd see the day.
  • I should start playing this game. Heard it's good.
  • I don't watch the show, but I still consider myself a brony. I'm a Broncos fan, so I think that's enough qualifications there.
  • this makes me want to shoot myself in the face
  • so squeaky sooooo squeaky

  • I had decided to not even bother trying this, but this video actually makes me want to give it a shot. Oh and Rainbow Dash is best pony.
  • The comments section is about to get messy
  • Thanks for posting this, Adam! The game itself actually isn't that bad. I'll be sure to play it over the holidays on and off. And by the way, that interview is awesome. Ashleigh Bell is an excellent VA.
  • I have heard that this game is kind of a farmville clone. But I might be willing to give it a shot whenever I get a smartphone.

  • I'm sure I'll be playing this more once the holidays are over and I'm bored in class. Certainly nothing I'm going to spend time playing while I have stuff like Borderlands 2 at home, but a decent distraction when you're out of the house and bored.

  • People actually seemed pleased about this. They seem to actually like the show. Am I missing something? I haven't seen the show myself, but a show about My Little Pony doesn't sound like something people on this site would even be remotely interested in. Isn't this for 8 year old girls? Can someone please explain to me why this is so popular? I don't mean to come across as negative, I am genuinely perplexed.
  • Reality just got 20% cooler.
  • I hate that.
  • Is this game free?
  • Amazingly enough, it's fun...but the constant notifications drive me insane!
