Paddock: Horse Racing Game

Read the form, pick the winner, watch the race in pixel art. Offline, no account, no real-money betting. Points only go up.

Paddock is a single-player, offline horse racing prediction game: a retro pixel art simulator where you read the form like a trainer and pick the winner.

Every race card shows 6–10 thoroughbreds with real form: last five results, ground and distance preferences, running style, training notes, jockey changes and stable news. Read the card, find the horse the market has wrong, and make your pick: Win, Place, Exacta or Trifecta. Then watch the race unfold in pixel art with live commentary, photo finishes and a camera that follows your horse.

Right picks score points based on the odds; wrong picks score zero. Points only ever go up. Nothing is wagered, nothing is lost.

• Fair by design: the simulation is deterministic and the information you see is genuinely linked to the outcome. When you miss, you'll know why.
• 30-day seasons across three tracks: town, national and international. Higher tracks multiply your points.
• Ten kinds of paddock news from eight sources — trainers, stable hands and insiders — some reliable, some traps. Learn who to trust.
• Statistics by pick type, running style and market rank. Build your own handicapping system.
• Weekly card: five races, the same for everyone. Post your score to the leaderboard.
• No account, no server. Plays offline.

Each race costs one ticket. Tickets refill over time, from daily bonuses or by watching an optional ad; they are never sold and never depend on the race result. No real-money gambling, no prizes, nothing to cash out. A one-time purchase removes ads.
