Starters Orders Touch (the mobile version of the acclaimed Starters Orders series) is frequently called the 'Football Manager of horse racing,' and the title is well-deserved. This isn't just a simple betting game; it's a deep, granular management simulation. You are responsible for everything: training schedules, breeding programs, hiring jockeys, and managing your stable's finances across realistic global racing seasons.
The accuracy is what sets it apart. The game features a complex breeding model, realistic race tactics, and AI that actually feels competitive. Whether you're targeting the big flat races in the UK or jump racing in Ireland, the sense of accomplishment when your horse lands a major win is unparalleled. The 'pay once and play' model is a breath of fresh air in a market full of microtransaction-heavy sports games. It's a hardcore sim that respects the sport and the player.
Realistic global racing circuits
Deep breeding and genetics model
Accurate jockey AI and tactics
Pay once, play forever (no IAP)
Start by selecting your region. Focus on breeding horses with strong lineages to improve your chances in higher-grade races. Manage your trainer's AI to ensure your horses are at peak fitness for race day.
During a race, you can give instructions to your jockey. Choosing when to hold back and when to make a push for the finish line can be the difference between a win and a place.
Yes, you can place bets on your own horses or others to build up your stable's funds, just like in real racing.
I’ve been having a blast with this game! I’m already in the 2050s, it’s a lot of fun establishing legendary horses and having their offspring imitate their sire. I haven’t won a Triple Crown or Triple Tiara in any region yet, but I know eventually I will! My only real suggestion at this time is to put a bit more emphasis on the AI running those races. I went up against a very strong Kentucky Derby winner, but then he didn’t bother showing up in the Belmont or Preakness. It would be nice to have a little more emphasis be put on these legendary feats. Speaking of which, although the English and Japanese Triple Crown races have their real life names, the American ones do not. I assume this must be for copyright purposes, so it would be nice if we could rename races for our individual saves “for customization purposes”. That way if I want to call a certain race in May “The ____ Derby” I can. Thank you! I look forward to Starters Orders 8 when it’s out of PC.
FINALLY, a mobile horse racing game for the realism lovers out there who just aren’t interested in arcade style jockey sims. The text is small, but menus aren’t too difficult to read and the interface is much improved over the older mobile SO7.
Hey im 20 seasons in and i cant start an auction because i will just crash
And I only use betting so far. Worth the money!
