Mini Golf Stars: Arena Battle‪!‬ 4+

Good game but...

Need to fix the bugs. Hitting a ball into a wall or thinking you are and the ball goes through the wall is very frustrating. There’s one hole with a big orange circle in the middle. At first I tried moving my aim to go around it, but figured out all I gotta do is hit it straight at the circle wall and the ball disappears and goes through it and the entire stretch of the hole then reappears and goes in the hole. Other holes if you hit the ball at full strength from a distance it goes through the wall, not jumping or bouncing up and bam, you’re out of bounds. How about not being able to see your ball or line due to structures? Be nice to see where I’m hitting lol. Other than those issues, this game is a great way to pass time.

Glitches and my money is gone

I played this game religiously for the last two months. Started playing for real $$ about 3-4 weeks ago and enjoyed playing. For over a week now, each and every time I start a match the system glitches. Reached out to support 8 times and received 8 responses asking me to identify the match # or my opponent but the matches never got past a freeze screen and I had no way to provide what the tech agents were asking for. I was told to trick the system by using a volume button pattern and even after I did this, copied and pasted it to an external email, no fix but my actual $$ was gone because they charge 10% of the match price when you “tied”. It was my favorite app of the year now I believe it’s just a scam. Just for the aggregation they should refund my entire deposit. Asked for a phone cal to explain the glitch but they are not offering “phone support” at this time. Play the game and have fun for “Z” tickets but DO NOT give them your money if you want to “Win”. The company profits 20% per match. Multiply this SMALL fee time 1,000’s and you can all do the math. Hope you have a better experience than me. I’m very unhappy. ...all over $2.00 prompted me to write this. Never written a review like this in my life. Good luck.

Developer Response ,

Hello DDDDDoott,

Sorry for the issues. You can reach out to our support team and get a refund on any lost funds. We had a server issue that has since been fixed but we know we have some players out of money. The email is support@skillz.com.

Fun! Buuuut...

The game is really fun, now! I had downloaded it a while back and it was kinda lacking in variety. It was a little boring with no real difficulty. Now, it’s fairly difficult and pretty fun! The only real complaints I have is that it’s a little glitchy. If you hit too hard, the ball will phase through the walls, and the way the scoring is is a little too demanding. Mistakes happen in golf and I think they should be left in, instead of forcing the player to retry a hole. ESPECIALLY if it’s a really difficult one. Sure, you have the option to skip the hole, but you have to watch a 30 second ad. I also think the game could be more fun with a course option, where it’s 9 or 18 holes, like a real mini golf course. Other than these things, the game is pretty fun! For now, the game gets a 3/5. If these things are changed, I’ll give it a 5/5. :)

TL;DR the game is fun with a few minor bugs and things like scoring that could use some tweaking. :)
