If you’re new to Umamusume Pretty Derby, the game might feel a bit overwhelming at first. It’s not your typical mobile game—Umamusume blends character development, training strategy, and horse racing into one deep simulation.
It’s an anime gacha girl racing game? That a lot
Would not have thought the venn diagram of weeb and horsegirl covered enough people to fund a game like this, but the more I think about it the more this makes total sense
Unfortunately a lot of their money comes from adult men who already gamble on real horse racing (at least that’s what I’ve heard)
It also has rougelite elements and stuff. Pretty good, the gatcha elements are not too bad so far, but I’ll have to see how bad stuff will get, cough-cough Infinity Nikki, cough-cough Blacklight Retribution, cough-cough countless other live services.
