Angry Birds Go! vs Howrse
Angry Birds Go!
Angry Birds Go! infuses a fun downhill racing gameplay with the popular Angry Birds franchise. Developed by none other than Rovio Entertainment, this game will quicken your pulse in a jiffy as you do your best to stay ahead of the other racers and secure the first place. However, things do get a little bit crazier when ramming is involved - yes, you can actually ram other racers' karts in hopes of destroying them, flipping them over, or at the very least veer them off course. You can even lift-off in your kart via handy jet boosters!Like most racing games, you'll also get to upgrade the 4 main aspects of your "rig", including speed and maneuverability, or you can opt to switch out your old kart for a new and much better one instead. There are tons of fun and familiar characters you can play with as well!
Although Angry Birds Go! isn't exactly your typical, slingshot-based Angry Birds game, it is still a pretty well-made, competitively multiplayer racing game that will definitely get your adrenaline going.
Howrse
Howrse is a text-and-graphics-based horse game by Ubisoft. The game has been on the internet since 2005 and is still going strong despite the emergence of graphically better horse games like Star Stable, Horse Haven Adventures and others. Unlike other horse games, Howrse focuses more on the management aspect of owning a horse ranch, requiring you to have good organization skills as you make sure your horses are all well-taken care of and trained. The game also has a competitive edge, allowing you to send your best horses out for challenging races. There are plenty of beautiful horses and ponies you can raise, as well as other fun features like horse breeding and trading too. You can even set up your own equestrian center and join up with a team so you'll have some company while playing the game.Howrse may not look like much on the outside, but once you've gotten into the game, you'll start to realize what a gem this game is. The depth of the gameplay is simply amazing for a text-based game, and of course, there's the irrefutable joy that this game has brought to horse and pony lovers worldwide for more than a decade! If it hasn't already, Howrse should definitely be deemed a horse game classic.
