Edge MagazineDec 24, 2025Horses is a fascinating work, capable of moments that lodge in the memory, such as the late-game sequence when the projector's whirring finally stops and the tired clomp of footsteps registers to our ears like the sound of freedom. [Issue#419, p.122]

Dec 19, 2025Much of HORSES' notoriety stems from its 'forbidden' status, but beneath the controversy lies a valid, experimental narrative for adult audiences. It is a worthwhile provocation for those seeking something off-beat, succeeding as an uncomfortable and fleeting audiovisual piece.

Dec 14, 2025It’s not particularly effective at what it sets out to do. It is certainly a harrowing and memorable experience I won’t soon forget, and a standout in 2025 for its imagery alone, but not one destined for the limelight outside of the controversy. It’s ironic that a game tackling the hypocrisy of purity culture and dehumanization of “deviants” would end up in such people’s targets after the initial ban, but reality is stranger than fiction. Horses deserves to be played, but at times feels like a shock-value PETA game that tackles its tougher topics with the subtlety of a jackhammer. To hinge a studio’s success on this game would be risky even if it was on Steam, but I still hope that, to paraphrase the financier’s daughter in Horses, the people at Santa Ragione get to live the rest of their lives as game developers.
