Homestretch Bet - 2weeks Experiment Now Live

2weeks' first bite-sized, web-based experiment is Homestretch Bet, a horse racing game inspired by Texas Hold ‘Em.

Homestretch Bet is a bite-sized, unique PC gaming experiment that combines the thrill of horse racing with the strategy of Texas Hold 'Em.

2weeks creates experiments, which are rapid prototypes built to test new game concepts. 2weeks releases them publicly so you can try them out early and give feedback.

2weeks ships experiments when they're just far enough along to illustrate the idea for the game. This means assets will still be rough, and you may experience bugs and performance problems. This is part of the fun!

In the Homestretch Bet experiment, you’ll bet on your favorite horse based on their stats and the luck of the draw as the race unfolds. Each horse charges into the homestretch with unique boosts and energy levels, creating an exhilarating and unpredictable experience.
