The best horse games on PC

Horse games are a rarity, mainly due to the low demand among game lovers. But some projects can still please with their simplicity and realism. These are the games we have collected in this guide.

The main feature of Secret of the Magic Crystals is the ability not only to grow and care for animals, but also to participate in competitions and races. Another feature is that you can raise an unusual horse, and some kind of pegasus or unicorn. By the way, the game is not very demanding and will run on any "calculator".

In this game, you will have to face not only the care of horses and participate in races, but also build a real horse farm on your own. To do this, the game has all the conditions: you have to take care of pets, feed and clean them, as well as breed all sorts of new breeds.

All the nuances of keeping horses are worked out clearly and are quite close to reality (horses get sick without proper care, and galloping is infinitely impossible, as animals get tired), for example, in fact, this game not only amuses, but also highlights fresh knowledge. The graphics cannot be called realistic: that is why the game is not demanding.

Ostwind / Windstorm was made based on the popular movie "East Wind" and includes not only unique characters from the film adaptation, but also its captivating soundtrack. The player takes control of a 14-year-old girl who has a lot of problems. But despite this, she managed to tame an unbridled horse and even become his best friend.

In order to achieve the friendship and favor of the East Wind, the player will need to make a lot of effort, regularly worry about him, develop his abilities and explore the large world of the game together with him, while moving along a well-defined plot. The graphics are pretty good, and the views are bright and varied. All this makes the project a real game for girls who love horses. Of the minuses of the game, only not the most realistic animation of the horse's movements and the lack of Russian localization can be noted.

The Sims 3 is a legendary life simulator where you can build your own family or even a city. In 2011, project developer EA Games released a DLC for the original game called Pets. Thanks to this addition, you can become the owners of any animals, including horses. You can create a whole homestead and take care of horses there.

Everyone has their own character, both humans and animals. In this game, you can create character traits for your pets yourself. You are in full control of the creation of the Horses. And most importantly, don't forget to take the time to meet their requirements. For example, if you get yourself another cat and a dog, then they will have completely different interests and needs. Cats constantly have to sharpen their claws on some objects, while dogs gnaw on everything they want. But the horses, in turn, do not have to do anything complicated. Just a little exercise.

The third part of The Sims Pets is definitely not an equestrian simulator, but you will not only be able to participate in the races, but also feel like the owner of a real horse.

Star Orders 6 is the latest part of the series of horse racing simulators that fans of the genre have come to love. It presents all the best qualities for caring for horses: all kinds of stables, a variety of thoroughbred horses and more. In addition, you can both participate in races and make various bets on your horses.

Wildlife Park 2 - Horses is an add-on to the zoo simulator Wildlife Park 2, which, as you might imagine, is focused on horses and everything related to these animals.

Although any races and other competitions between animals are still considered the main theme of the game, the “zoo” roots of the game constantly make themselves felt every day - the care, table of contents and education of horses are presented here as close to reality as possible (up to horse breedingher, for example, that she probably shouldn’t buy this game for her beloved daughter or niece).

In general, this game is more on the theme of menacing furry heavy trucks than on the theme of magical unicorns. True, there is still an unrealistic picture of horses in this game, but these are extinct Hyracotheria. So, in case you want to be in the shoes of a professional horse breeder and not dig into the manure at the same time, Wildlife Park 2: Horses will suit you. Moreover, the game has Russian localization.

Riding Star - Horse Championship! - a detailed and close to reality equestrian simulator, the feature of which is the recreation in this game of the most key equestrian stadiums in the world, for example, Aachen. Show jumping, dressage and cross-country racing modes are available. And the well-known four-time Olympic show jumping favorite Lyudg works as the “voice” of the game??r Burbaum. In this game, you will not be able to take advantage of strong customization, but despite this, the main functions and good graphics in the game are enough to pass the time for fun.
