From the creator of the “Hit Stick” in Madden, Ian Cummings is a true giga brain. This team encourages community feedback and is always looking to improve. Now on to the actual game, it is VERY realistic! Just as with owning a real horse, winning a race is hard to do. There is a skill curve involved with this game, and you may lose some money in the process.

Best Horse Racing Game! *2024-09-20, version 1.0* I’ve tried out a large number of horse racing games, and nothing comes close to Photo Finish Live. They are partnered with the Kentucky Derby and NBC, and the team has worked on games like Madden and even the creator was the one who came up with the “Hit Stick”. It can be as easy or in depth as you want it to be, and all while you can earn real money. I did invest a lot of time and analysis, but my stable has earned me over $10k and it is increasing as I race and strengthen my bloodline more. This game is as real as it gets when it comes to a virtual horse racing economy. You can earn by racing, breeding, wagering, selling, and even get a cut of the other players racing fees by putting your CROWN you earn through racing on one of the tracks. Would 100% recommend if you are even the slightest interested. The community is also really strong and willing to help any new player! Just join the discord and start asking questions if you want any sort of help at any time with your stable! ### 5/5 — Very fun *2024-09-20, version 1.0* Fun and fair. There are lots of different directions to go in. The races are a blast to watch, the graphics looks great. I beamed my races with screen mirroring and it looked awesome on a big TV. Lots to figure out but I’m having a blast so far. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can’t Play Game *2026-03-30, version 1.0.4* I like the game but I can’t get past the create my stable screen so please fix this problem so people can play the game please. Thanks ### 1/5 — Fix it *2025-09-23, version 1.0.4* Game hardly can function for five seconds without me having to constantly leave and rejoin it, refreshing is a joke. I have to click things ten times for it to register once. ### 3/5 — Can’t even start *2026-03-16, version 1.0.4* I tried to create an account got all the way to my stable name. It creates stable and then it keeps popping up failed Capcha. I didn’t even have a Capcha to pass. Went to support and can’t even get past the support options when I click on them so idk if it’s Good Game or not but Looks Like A Great idea to me if I was able to play or at least attempt to. So my star rating is not going to be accurate. ### 3/5 — Good but not great *2025-08-07, version 1.0.4* Best horse racing game ever, but the app desperately needs an update to fix some bugs. ### 5/5 — el juego es muy bueno *2026-06-30, version 1.1.0* lástima que abandonaron el token crown ### 5/5 — Wow *2025-09-14, version 1.0.4* Dopest virtual horse racing game I’ve ever played.
