Each horse game brings something unique to this much loved style of game, and within that there are some fantastic opportunities to play something new and fun. But there are also some interesting and enjoyable challenges too. While there are some that are present in every game, there are others that present something very special to play.

In almost every game there is the need to care for your horses, this can vary from simply hiring a stable hand to managing and cleaning every horse yourself each day. This grooming and feeding also tends to keep the health of your horse high, but in some games you need to push that little harder, or work that little more to keep a healthy horse.

This can involve the addition of training programs, special items or food and even some of your currency and resources. But it goes deeper than that especially if you play a game with a lot of events or races for your horses to take part in. Keeping a healthy horse while still wining trophies can be quite the balancing act.

But that level of detail and attention is what can make a game truly amazing to play. Alongside the health aspect, you also need to prepare, equip and train your horses to be able to do what you want in each of the games, from showjumping to dressage and everything in between there are many options for you to enjoy.

To have a chance of winning these events you will need to get your horse ready and that can be a little challenging, from taking the right skills or buying the right equipment the choices you make have an effect on the performance of your horse. While some games make this easy to see, others will deliberately give you that challenge.

And yet there is more to horse games than just racing or competing, there are a huge amount of games that are just fun, they come with exploration and mini games to play. Though these are a different style of game they also have their own unique challenges.

Whether it’s finding that special rare horse or going out looking for new foals to catch and look after there is something for everyone. These games also often have an engaging story where you have to complete little missions or quests for people as you travel.

A large part of horse games is also the breeding options available. There are lots of different games that approach this in a variety of different ways, but in each case there is an element of knowing what horses you want to breed for the best results.

This can vary from needing to find a specific combination of horses for a special colour of coat, or training your horse to be fast so that its foal will be even faster. These breeding programs give the option to create some very special breeds and individual horses.

But creating that perfect match can be challenging, either in the research required or by obtaining that perfect breeding couple. Many of the games that focus more towards the breeding side have auctions where you can buy a horse, or find one that has been put out to stud.

These different levels of difficulty add a huge amount of depth to the game, and here is where you really have a choice, you don’t have to go into it this far, you can accept the challenge and try to train, raise or breed the best horse in a particular field. Or you have the option to be more relaxed and just enjoy riding horses and looking after them.

However you choose to play and whichever game is your favorite the beauty of horse games is the variety and depth available to you. In every game there are challenges, some simple and some harder. But most of all these games are just fun to play, whatever level you play at.
