Horse is a two player split screen game type.
Origin[]
The Horse game type is a variation of the popular "Game of S.K.A.T.E." However, it is based on the concept of combos instead of a continuous scoring.
Rules[]
- Player 1 sets a combo score. Player 2 has to beat it.
- If player 2 succeeds, the score bar is raised for player 1, in which the score set by player 2 has to be beaten. Otherwise, they get a letter, and the process restarts.
- The amount of time for a player to start a combo is limited (usually 10 seconds).
- Bailing at any time, even before starting a combo, will end the player's turn and either does not set a score or gets a letter.
- First to get the whole word by collecting all letters loses.
Trivia[]
- There is the ability to choose any word to play.
- When a player loses, a horse laugh can be heard in the background.
- There is basketball game called H-O-R-S-E which is similar in rules.
- It is the only multiplayer mode that alternates between players, meaning that the player's camera is similar to how it's played in single-player modes, making it easier to see the level layout differences in multiplayer modes.
