Features
Tobiano is an indie horse management simulation game. Tobiano is not controlled by a corporation trying to make money off players, it is created by a single person who just likes horses a lot.
Training
In Tobiano, horses aren’t born knowing how to be ridden. You start the training process by backing the horse, then work your way through dressage movements to unlock new levels of training. Just like in real life, horses are not always successful when learning new movements. Horses also have temperaments and fitness levels which will impact their ride ability. Horses can get stressed by high demands like new exercises or strenuous work. For now Tobiano is focused on dressage, but jumping and other disciplines are in progress and will be added later on.
Breeding
Tobiano features a complex breeding system that includes personality traits, ten different color genes, and conformation traits. A mare’s nutrition needs and conformation will change throughout the pregnancy, which lasts almost a year in game. Refine your line by strategically selling horses and breed for more valuable horses.
Feeding and management
You can’t make a horse faster or more agile with feed. In Tobiano, feed is made up of different nutrients found in the real world, like protein, energy, vitamins and minerals. A horse’s nutrient requirements depend on their workload, size, and life stage. You can grow some of your own feed at your farm to be more self-sufficient.
Tack
You can buy tack for your horse in the tack shop. All tack comes in different colors and styles, so there are endless combinations that can add to your horse’s individuality. Tack is unlocked with gold which can be earned by maintaining your login streak. Unlocked tack can also be crafted in the workshop. Spare tack can be sold for an extra income or equipped on your horses.
