Faithfully recreated old fashioned smelly, dingy, smoke filled betting shop complete with authentic 3D horse racing and commentary (using the latest in speech synthesis technology) and sounds.
Study the Sporting Life newspaper, place your bet and listen as the race is played out in realistic nail biting audio commentary. Why hasn't the commentator mentioned your nag yet? Will it swoop late? Is it tailed off? And will Grimsby Town finally get a win this Saturday? Will you eat tonight or take another miserable step towards starvation, disease and death?
Take a walk on the beach to gain a health boost or visit the pub in a Monopoly 'community chest' style card rewards system and play the fruit machine.
Includes Steam achievements and leaderboard.

Fun game, recommend if you like to bet w/o losing your shirt. It's the only horse racing game I found, has an announcer calling the race. Yes it's a computer voice, and sometimes it repeats the same statement over and over. Especially if a horse gets a big lead. The graphics are kinda 90's, but that's okay. The jukebox doesn't work. Besides who has OGG's anyways? Oh and it's the only game, also doesn't have you taking care of a horse. I don't wanna raise a horse, I wanna BET on them!
Wish the dev would come back, clean up the jukebox issue and some other bits. I
f you liked Arlington Horse racing on Mame, you'll love this.
This game is about gambling on horse races... with atmosphere of being a degenerate in 80s England. It has good, basic gambling mechanics with past performances and nice virtual races (although some deeper betting options like exactas would be nice). So yeah, buy this game if you want a horse race betting simulation on steam... that's what it is.
If you're looking for a game with flashy and state-of-the-art graphics, you will be disappointed.
But if you're looking for a fun and quirky game, this is right up your alley
Eat, Sleep, Bet, Repeat beautifully captures the spirit and essence of the dank, smoke-filled and crude 'betting parlors' of 1980s London, where you play a local ne'er-do-well using his government check to try and make a few quick bucks by betting on horse races and football games, just trying to survive until the next check arrives.
But don't forget you also have to eat as well, at the local Kebab deli, across the street from your dusty and dirty flat.
You can also get hammered and play the Fruit Machine at your local pub as well
Do you bet your total check on the long-shot, hoping for a nice payoff, or do you bet safe and simple?
Will you feast like a king or starve to death because you foolishly squandered your money?
Find out in Eat, Sleep, Bet, Repeat.
Overall a decent game for all us betheads,but basic, multiple betting is missin,no lucky 15s,yankee,etc etc,would be better with this.lovin the 80s feel,cool game,funny
I am really enjoying this game. It is an oddity. The game revolves around surviving day to day by betting on football and horse racing as an unemployed lout in a run down seaside town. The horse racing is the real focus and contains a detailed simulation. Since the 3D race sequence has been added (recently) this game is a much better proposition. Surviving is quite hard as your health reduces quickly. You can top up via the kebab house but if you lose your money in the betting shop it can often be a long wait to the next giro cheque leading to death and the end of the game. The game can not really be 'won' but has a certain charm that will no doubt appeal to a certain demographic.
Simple uncomplicated game . Quite enjoyable
Being as old as i am and i am old such memories arehere ,this is the only game i play as real life,I havesuggested some stuff to mark and i can only hope he does it but i think this needs work to be the greatest game on steam with SO7 of course, press on with this its best developed further,but i have played it and started again so many times it never fails to facinate me,especialy on saturdays
A funny and entertaining casual betting sim for gamblers and racing fans! New update is great!
Your only goal is to survive until your next welfare check comes. You have health, mood, food and drink meters that you have to maintain between paychecks. The goal is to stay afloat by betting on horse races and football matches. If you run out of money and starve you lose the game. You can go to the restaurant for food/drink, betting shop to bet and either the pub or beach draws a random event card that has a positive and/or negative effect.
There is some basic handicapping involved in picking winners. It uses the Starters Orders 7 engine which is a VERY in depth horse racing sim that has been in constant development for a long time. You get past performances and a few stats for each horse entered in the race and can look through them for clues that will help you find a winner. I play horses in real life and can tell you that some common things you would look for in an actual race will also help you with the game but you don't need to be a serious horse racing fan to enjoy it. There is no end game, a high score is your only goal. There is an online leaderboard.
If you're a racing degenerate like me you will get a kick out of this game!
Let's get this out of the way early doors. The game doesn't have a story or any real progression, other than your bank balance growing. There aren't any upgrades and it does feel quite simplistic. But what it lacks in depth it makes up for in nostalgia.
If you haven't ever been to the bookies during the 80s or 90s then you might want to avoid this one. However, if you remember a time before the casino machines took over the high street then strap yourself in.
While the game may not look much from the screenshots, it does a decent job of recreating the tv screens and racing papers that were an essential part of a saturday afternoon. The football section feels a bit tacked on to be honest but it does help add some variety.
The best part about the game is that you can just chill out, read through the form and pick a winner. You then get to listen to some basic commentary in the bookies and if you don't win you can drown your sorrows in the pub next door. The real challenge is trying to make your money last until your next giro gets cashed.
If you are looking for a deep immersive racing game then I would suggest Starters Orders. If you've had a long day at work and you just fancy trying your luck without the risk of losing any real money then this game is really relaxing and good simple fun.
A couple of suggestions for the dev. Greyhound DLC would be nice. A bit more of a tipping section in the newspaper with naps would be fun.
It's not for everyone but I like it. Trying to survive as an 80's delinquent by playing the horses and having random acts of weirdness on the beach is pretty amusing. They are using their starters orders game to play out the races. Apparently in the 80's bookie shops in England, punters bet on races with only an audio call of the race. I'm only guessing because I'm from the states... Wish they would use the announcer calls for their starters orders races but I digress... So yeah it's stupid, it's fun and weird but there is nothing like it. If you like horse racing, then you should give this a go because there just isn't much out there for us.
A very unique but simple 80's game that reflects gives a nice retro feeling and an old visual style. Most of the game is spent in the betting shop trying to win on the horses (and football once a week) to survive. On starting it feels a bit repetitive. And it is! But the game grew on me after a few quick sessions and the horse racing becomes quite engaging as time goes on. The pub and beach are just add-ons that serve to give you a possible funds boost should you run low on cash. That's about it really. It does have a nice 80's feel and I would recommend this with the proviso that you remember the 80's and old betting shops! LOL. It's just an odd game.
Anyway, in some way’s it feels like it has something to say around run down town centres and unemployment culture and the hopeless lives that used to (and probably still do) spend their day’s living this repetitive life. Maybe this game is some kind of cultural statement not normally seen in video games or maybe it’s just a simple game.
I read on the forums something about 'staring at a Lava lamp' but it feels more like a weird retro experience rather than a game if that makes sense. I suspect a large number of gamers just won't get it but I enjoy playing it albeit in brief sittings. I think it has a lot of potential to be developed and expanded with a story and extra locations.
A terrible game, absolutely no depth to it at all. should be 11p not £11.
I've never been driven to write any kind of review before, but the 13 euro price tag on this game is completely insane and has forced me into action. An incredibly basic piece of work, i was bored in minutes. I racked up 12 hours playing time because i fell asleep while at my laptop. I tried the game a second time but still it held no interest for me. I couldn't possibly, in good conscience, recommend this game to anyone and i'm gonna wait for more reviews to appear for it and see what other people think, but i'm pretty certain it won't go down well with most people. I'd maybe pay 2 or 3 euros for it, any more than that and it's a rip off.
Don't buy it.
