Epic Games is giving away Rustler - Grand Theft Horse for free from January 22 to January 29. This game is like Grand Theft Auto but set in a medieval world. It's not just about stealing horses, though. Players can do all sorts of wild things, much like in GTA.
The game's design is very similar to the older GTA games. It's a top-down view, and the main character might remind some players of Jimmy Hopkins from Bully. Rustler is full of pop-culture references, but it doesn't always handle them as well as GTA does.
When Rustler first came out, it had a lot of bugs and technical problems. However, updates in 2021 and 2022 fixed many of these issues. So, if you're thinking about playing it now, it should be in much better shape.
Even though Rustler isn't as popular as GTA, it has a loyal fanbase. On Steam, it has a 79% positive review rating. That's better than the reviews for the GTA Definitive Edition Trilogy remasters, which have been quite divisive.
If you're a fan of open-world games or medieval settings, Rustler might be worth checking out. It's a fun game with a lot of freedom, and now you can try it for free. Just remember, it's not as polished as some other games, but it's still a good time.
