Some speed and the right timing are crucial in a game like Dead Rails where survival is of utmost importance and a horse will help with exactly that. Here’s a quick guide that explains how to get a horse and ride it to escape enemies faster and get back to your train before you get swarmed.
How to Get a Horse in Dead Rails
Before heading out to the next station, get a Saddle from the General Store for $50 because this will help you tame a wild horse. And when you’re traveling on your train, you will see a bunch of horses in the desert. You can approach such a herd, and tame one by using the saddle on it. However, make sure the horse doesn’t run off when you try to get near. With some help from friends or a trusty wall that blocks the horse from running off, you can get your own horse in Dead Rails.
If you need a horse for a quick run, find a group of bandits, and take down the bandits without attacking the horse. It can be challenging if you don’t have enough weapons, so make sure you have purchased some of the best guns before embarking on your journey. If you’re short of in-game money, here are some ways to earn it quickly.
You can then collect the bandits to sell for money and ride the horse to get to another nearby location. To ride it, simply approach the horse and your character should be able to mount the horse for travel. You can also use your weapons while you’re on it.
That’s everything about getting a horse in Dead Rails. If you’d like to know how to obtain Holy Water, Crucifix, and the Vampire Knife that has the lifesteal ability, check out our linked guides to know more.
