Our take on Rival Stars Horse Racing: Desktop Edition

The game combines horse racing with restoring a neglected family ranch. Play includes breeding foals, managing a stable, upgrading the homestead, and riding through open locations, so ranch upkeep sits alongside competition.

What is Rival Stars Horse Racing: Desktop Edition?

Restore a rundown family ranch while managing a stable, raising foals, and preparing horses for competition.

Racing includes story events and online multiplayer at locations inspired by famous tracks. Cross Country events test jumping skills and feature a global leaderboard. A genetic breeding system produces foals with different coats and patterns, and the Horse Creator lets players make horses to share with the community. Players can explore open locations, including the ranch and the Swiss Alps, with their horses, take pictures using Photo Mode, and use resources to upgrade the homestead. Virtual race betting offers another way to earn rewards. The MacOS version does not support high-definition grass.
