While Ponyfinder is still the popular alternative and possibly more suited towards fans of more rule heavy systems, when looking at the released character sheet examples River Horse seems to be aiming towards a simplified system which is more accessible to younger audiences.
Even the upcoming adventure "The Curse Of The Statuettes!" sounds like something that could happen in the show:
This isn't a terrible thing mind you and it will be great to see how well the system works upon its release.All over Equestria ponies have started to turn into statuettes, figurine versions of themselves. Nopony knows why, nopony knows when and to make it all worse, nopony knows where the Mane six have gone! It looks like it’s up to you to travel to distant lands, overcome terrifying danger and save ponyville, neigh the world!In The Curse of the Statuettes ponies will explore the mysterious badlands and have to find ways to befriend or outfox the many ponies and creatures they will meet. Creatures such as the Roc, a mythical bird that uses its massive size and slate-like feathers to intimidate anypony who gets in its way or the greedy Dr Caballeron, caring more for wealth than for than good of ponykind!
