About this game

Sound of Horses is a story-driven horseback adventure that grows over time during Early Access.

Your journey begins in the peaceful Homeland and slowly leads into something deeper.

Create your own rider and horse, explore open landscapes filled with everyday life and quiet mysteries, and meet memorable characters who shape your journey.

What’s included in Episode 1

Episode 1 introduces the world of Sound of Horses and tells a complete opening chapter of the story, where everyday life on horseback gradually leads into the first unfolding mystery.

It offers approximately 6–7 hours of story-driven gameplay, with additional time for exploration depending on playstyle.

About the remaining episodes

The remaining episodes are currently planned to be released together as part of the full version, continuing the story and expanding the world.

Everyone who already owns the game will receive Episodes 2 to 4 at no additional cost.

The final price is currently planned to be around $24.99 USD.

The journey ahead

Starting with Episode 2: The Forest Guard, the story begins to cross over into the Other Side, a parallel world shaped by forgotten secrets and ancient forces.

From that point on, your journey will move between two worlds:

the familiar routines of Homeland, and the strange, shifting paths of what lies beyond.

Even as you’re drawn deeper into the unknown, life in Homeland continues, asking for your time, your choices, and your care.

Along the way, you’ll discover the unique horse cultures of each region, each with its own traditions, breeds, and competitions.

Planned story episodes

Episode 1 – Homeland

Begin your story in the quiet Homeland, where everyday life on horseback slowly gives way to something unexpected.


Episode 2 – The Forest Guard

Journey through deep forests and snow-covered mountains, uncovering the way of the Forest Guards and the secrets they protect.

Solve ancient riddles and take part in legendary competitions in a land shaped by old myths.


Episode 4 – The Land of the Eagle

Train with the people of the Steppe and face a final test of strength, trust, and skill against the legendary Eagle.

With a strong focus on storytelling, atmosphere, and a meaningful riding experience, Sound of Horses invites players of all ages to step into a gentle but growing adventure.

    An Update on the Future of Sound of Horses

    Hello everyone!We would like to share an important update. Our plan was to release the remaining episodes separately during Early Access. However, while working on Episode 2, we realized that we need to develop all remaining episodes as a whole in order to create the best possible experience. Releasing each episode separately across all platforms involves a significant amount of extra work, including testing, localization, bug fixing, and store updates. Since Sound of Horses is developed by just the two of us, we want to spend as much of our time as possible actually making the game. Because of this, we have decided to release the rest of the game as one complete experience rather than as separate parts. Everyone who already owns Sound of Horses will, of course, receive all future story content at no additional cost. We truly believe that this is the best decision for Sound of Horses. Even though this means a longer wait, we will continue to keep you informed through regular development updates so that you can follow the progress of the adventure we are creating.Thank you for your patience, your support, and for being part of this journey with us. We look forward to sharing the rest of the adventure with you!Lola & Anders Vanilla Sky Productions
