My reviews of the Windstorm games were written before I joined the company though and remain unedited.Īvailable on: PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC Nowadays, you should keep an eye on developer Aesir Interactive because I work there now and am the Creative Producer on their current WIP horse game, which I cannot wait to share more about. Just jump right into this one, trust me, it’s not worth it the other way around. Note: Do not play the first Windstorm game. You get a pretty open world to explore, quests and tasks that are a lot more varied than what other kids’ games offer, and a narrative that’s perhaps not mindblowing but at least solid. Weaknesses: horse animations are not great, budget constraints noticeable in cutscenesĪri’s Arrival has its issues, but if you want a realistic-looking single player horse game with a story, this is by far your best option. Strengths: horse-focused adventure, pretty and polished, open world, support upcoming horse game with purchase Learn more about the game and my involvement right here, wishlist it on Steam or find the console editions up for preorder in your local game stores.Īvailable on: PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch
Update: Now that my own game, Horse Tales: Emerald Valley Ranch has been announced, I also need to include it here. This year, instead of posting an entirely new article I’ve decided to update this existing best-of with all that is new. The Best Horse Games articles remain among my most popular content, so I want to keep this list up to date. This leads to loads of people typing “best horse games 2022” and “best horse games pc” into their search bar and land on my site only to find out… that the horse game genre has not made as much progress as we’d like it to have, in the past fifteen years.ĭespite all that, there is a bunch of good stuff out there, and if this is your first visit to The Mane Quest, you may not be aware of it all yet. We start to wonder “hey, it’s been years since I played a good horse game, I wonder what’s new in that genre”.
So many of us feel the same way: we remember that one great horse game we played as a kid, having long forgotten about whatever wasn’t good about it. To view the original 2020 version, click here. This article was originally published in July 2020 and was updated in April 2022.
