I recently dived into ‘Death Stranding’ and was captivated by its concepts. Now, I find myself intrigued again through a demo of The Legend of Khiimori, which allows players to embody a horse courier in 13th-century Mongolia.

As a horse courier, you navigate vast landscapes, performing tasks for various communities, such as delivering goods and finding missing people. The game places a heavy focus on the intricate mechanics of horse care, including maintaining their health, managing load distribution, and providing for their needs.

This game requires players to value their steed’s wellbeing, adding a layer of depth reminiscent of sim racing mechanics.

The detailed customization options allow players to track genetics and manage perks, emphasizing the developer’s passion for horses in the gaming landscape. With no combat elements, players can immerse themselves in beautiful landscapes come the full game release on November 4.
