I’ve been looking for a golf game like this for a while. A simple arcade like game to share with friends that doesn’t take forever to play. Aside from a couple glitches where the ball will stop out of nowhere while rolling, almost like it hit a bump, there isn’t much I would change about this game. I love the added friends section! I think it would be cool to show the friends first attempt and their best attempt for that particular day. That would help with the not so honest friends who mysteriously get consistent hole in ones!As for the back half of my title, people complain too much, I’m talking to the people complaining about shot variability. Yeah it can be wild sometimes but that’s golf. After playing one hole, you learn to take more conservative shots. I still consistently get in the top 10% while taking those less risky shots. All it takes is a little more thought into what order to play the holes and realizing that your ball will land anywhere within the white circle at the end of your shot trajectory. The further the shot, the higher the chance is of it being wild. If you’re looking for a golf game that you can control every single aspect of what the ball does, this might not be the game for you. If you’re looking for a quick golf game to play with your friends, this is definitely it.

The game is amazing. I’ve played through around 600 of the campaign levels. They become a bit repetitive- some just flat out easy- but the 1v1 and campaign modes really keep me engaged. I’ve never really played the battle royale mode but I’m sure I will at some point and the daily classic is a fun way to start the day. That being said, a few minor fixes would go a long way. First and most importantly, the 1v1 mode does not have an inactivity timeout. This allows whoever you are playing to essentially out wait you to get a free win. Sometimes, opponents who are bound to lose wait tens of minutes or flat out leave the app and the game does nothing to punish / remedy. Fixing this would be amazing. Second of all, the physics with the wedge can be spotty at times making bounces extremely unpredictable. If this is intentional then it is what it is. Honestly it forces creative drives rather than chips. But, sometimes when a driver is incapable, a dead stop chip for no reason can really throw a wrench in strategy. Third, diversity in levels. Honestly this isn’t too pressing because the comp modes keep things competitive and the skill ceiling is very hight but it wouldn’t hurt. All in all amazing game. I would recommend it to everyone.

Love the concept and got a fair number of people playing. Downloaded the newest version with more accuracy (miss the cozy coffee cup icon), doesn’t fix the problems. I dont mind there’s some drift in the shot -IF- I get to have a sense of how. Wind direction flags in other golf games at least inform me how it’ll drift, so I have a chance of compensating, instead of it being a complete and arbitrary surprise each shot. I cant adjust my shot to get more accurate each time. Not fun to be not informed. // This pairs poorly with extreme bounce in your only long distance shot having tremendous bounce on tiny platforms and islands. Other golf games have a topspin/backspin to control bounce, if the goal is to make you land on a smaller/more accurate platform. Everyone ive shared it with complains about endless water shots resetting your position, with little to be done about it. // Give us some sense of how the ball will drift so we have a chance to adjust and plan our shot, and give us a way to control the bounce distance if the intention is to have lots of small platforms but only 3 clubs. I’d have no real complaints after that. Golf is fun for precision and planning, and the -unpredictable- drift and limited bounce control take away from that. Everyone ive shared it with voiced the same problems with it - wanting to get better at controlling their shot but having no ability to improve.

The game itself is pretty fun, one of those games you can play for just a few minutes and not get too invested. You get a course with 5 holes which you can go after in any order, going directly from one to the next. Challenges include way too much water and your ball getting stuck under trees. It runs a little ranking with your friends for each day's course. There is no way to play multiplayer with your friends, only random matches, so that's something that could be improved. The ads in this app are really, really obnoxious, and that has cost it a star. They're so bad, it should really be two. Everything you do involves watching one of those really loud ads you can't skip for a long time and then sends you to the App Store without permission which is gross. The recent update that added tour challenges has cost it a star because it took something fun and made it frustrating to the point that I've lost interest in playing. I had already played about 80 holes of tour mode, so I'm in much harder courses where it's incredibly hard to get 5 courses in a row, so I guess I get to miss out on all the freebies other people will get on the super easy ones.The game also offers the purchase of "gems" for real money, but they appear to have no use because all of the cosmetics it offers are only available for purchase with "gold" from multiplayer matches.
