About

Stable Keeper

Features
Read full description

Run your own stable, take in horses, and watch a run-down barn grow into a thriving estate — one card at a time. Owners keep showing up with horses that need a home. Accept their offer and that horse moves into a stall as a collectible card, all its own. Keep it fed, watered, turned out to pasture, and brushed, and it pays you to board it — even while the app is closed. Start hands-on, doing every chore yourself. As the coins roll in, hire help — a Feeder, a Waterer, a Wrangler, a Groom — and turn daily chores into idle income that keeps earning while you're away. The better you care for a horse, the more it earns and the higher its card climbs: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and the prized Holographic finish. Even a humble donkey can go Holographic with enough love. Spend your coins on bigger stables, more stalls, and landmark upgrades that transform the whole place — and watch your reputation grow until fancier breeds start showing up at your gate. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Collect every horse as its own evolving card • Care that pays — well-kept horses earn more • Cards level up through five finishes, ending in Holographic • Hire specialists to automate feeding, watering, pasture, and brushing • Earns coins offline — come back to a full piggy bank • Grow from a run-down barn to a sprawling estate • Build your reputation to attract better breeds • No ads, no subscriptions, no premium currency Lace up your boots and open the stable doors — your first horse is already on its way.
