stability2 negative mentions
  • Deep, realistic horse racing simulation with strong focus on breeding, training, and stable management.
  • Highly addictive and rewarding once the learning curve is overcome, appealing especially to horse racing enthusiasts and management sim fans.
  • Offers multiple gameplay modes including owner, trainer, jockey, and betting, with detailed stats and data akin to Football Manager.
  • User interface and tutorial are poor, making the game tough for newcomers and casual players to learn and navigate.
  • The game suffers from frequent crashes and lacks a reliable autosave feature, causing frustration and potential loss of progress.
  • Graphics and race commentary are dated and simplistic, and some gameplay mechanics like jockey behavior and betting have issues reducing realism.

  • graphics

    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally described as simple and functional, often likened to outdated or mobile phone-level visuals, but sufficient for conveying the core statistical and management gameplay. While not visually impressive or modern, the 3D race presentations and jockey mode add value for fans focused on realism and data rather than flashy visuals. Overall, the graphics get the job done but may disappoint those expecting high-end or immersive graphical experiences.

    • “Really nice graphics and playability.”
    • “Good graphics and realistic environment.....9/10.”
    • “The graphics are actually pretty decent if you choose to watch the races, but for me they are a nice touch that add to the racing aspect.”
    • “The 3D racing graphics are like an old mobile phone game, but it doesn't really matter.”
    • “The UI is just a mess and the graphics are even worse.”
    • “This game is not user friendly and the graphics on max settings are on par with cell phone games.”

  • gameplay

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is deep and immersive, focusing on detailed management and statistics rather than flashy visuals or arcade-style action. While the UI may feel clunky and the learning curve steep, especially for those unfamiliar with horse racing, fans of management sims and data-driven games will find it highly engaging and addictive.

    • “The UI can be a little clunky and weird, but the core mechanics of the game are deep and immersive.”
    • “It's really deep and can be addicting once you get the hang of the mechanics of the game.”
    • “If you're the type of gamer who enjoys management style games such as Football Manager, Front Office, Out of the Park Baseball and enjoy jumping into and divulging statistics and prefer text and data over what others would class as 'graphical gameplay' then you'll love Starters Orders 6.”
    • “The UI can be a little clunky and weird, making navigation less intuitive.”
    • “Learning the mechanics, combined with needing to educate myself on the sport of horse racing, was a bit of a chore.”
    • “The gameplay lacks the shiny visuals and arcade-style excitement found in other horse racing games, which may disappoint some players.”

  • stability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game experiences occasional glitches and crashes, resulting in some instability. While these issues are noticeable, they are not overwhelming enough to deter overall enjoyment.

    • “Had several issues with it crashing and seemed buggy.”

  • optimization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The optimization of the game is well-executed, with detailed background information and an effective rating system that accurately reflects horse performances.

  • replayability

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users highlight strong replayability, finding it enjoyable to race the horses themselves, which adds to the game's lasting appeal.

    • “A lot of fun racing the horses yourself and great replay value.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's humor is noted for its unintentionally funny and poorly delivered commentary, which many find amusing despite—or because of—its low quality.

  • monetization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users criticize the game's monetization for frequent intrusive advertisements that disrupt gameplay and cause interface stacking issues, leading to a frustrating and unstable user experience.
