Tutorial: How to start with Stables?

Stables is a unique horse racing game that combines the real-life performance of horses with a virtual racing experience to provide players, known as Racers, with thrilling emotions.

Create Your Account?

Stables turns every player into horses owners. Rather than linking your horses to a simple in-game account, the horses you own are hosted in a wallet, giving you the freedom to buy and sell them as you wish.

Here are the main steps to create your account on Stables:

1. Click on "Sign Up" at the top right on our website - https://www.playstables.io/
   ‍
2. Provide your email and accept the terms and conditions.
   ‍
3. Receive the verification code via email and enter it in the registration space to confirm your account.
   ‍
4. Once your account is created, all you have to do is connect your wallet. There are two common scenarios:
   ‍
     - If you are familiar with Web3, you need to connect with your Tezos wallet. Your wallet connection will identify you and grant access to your Stables account.
     - If the above doesn't make sense to you, we'll explain how to create a wallet in detail below.

Create/connect a Wallet

A wallet is a cryptocurrency portfolio. You absolutely need a wallet to own NFTs and therefore a Stable horse.

During the final step of the registration process, if you don't have a wallet, click on "Create a Wallet."

We'll show you how to create a Wallet quickly by suggesting two market-leading Wallet solutions (Kukai and Temple) that are compatible with the Tezos blockchain.

Buy a Stables Horse

Once your account is created and your wallet connected, you're ready to go!

Some Racers already have Stables horses in their wallet, so these horses will immediately appear in their space. If this isn't your case or if you want to buy more horses, it's possible.

If you want to buy a horse today, there's only one solution: go to the secondary market. It's a marketplace that brings together buyers and sellers.

In other words, you're going to have to explore the owners' market to choose your future horse. We explain in detail in this article: how to buy a horse on the secondary market.

How to Choose Your Horses?

In Stables, the game's strategic depth means that there are as many approaches as there are players. To help you develop your strategy and choose the horses that best fit it, we provide various resources:

• Our litepaper - this document shares an exhaustive vision of the project, helping you understand key aspects such as the rewards given to horses based on their performance.
• A Discord server - our community exchanges valuable advice to help you progress. We invite you to join and ask for opinions from other members to make informed choices.

Additionally, our community has created detailed databases on horse performance. These community-created tools are rich and allow you to learn about the rarity of horses and their progression in the game. You can access them through our Community Tools on our Discord.

How to Get S-Points?

In Stables, some races are free to help your horse progress, while others require payment of registration fees, which are then redistributed as rewards among the participants. These registration fees are recorded as S-Points, the in-game currency. The operation of rewards and the in-game currency are explained in our litepaper.

Buying S-Points couldn't be easier! Our store offers different packs to suit all stable sizes.

We hope these guidelines and tips will help you get started on Stables. Feel free to join us on Discord to engage with the team and our community of Racers. See you in the Equiverse!
