The gameplay is described as simple and reminiscent of worms-style mechanics, but it suffers from a lack of explanation for key features like obstacles and wind speeds. While some find it fun and addictive, many criticize the repetitive nature and limited depth, leading to a quickly diminishing enjoyment. Additionally, the game is noted for its subpar golfing mechanics and a monotonous soundtrack.
“A simple worms-style gameplay, at a rock-bottom price.”
“Fun and addictive gameplay.”
“Fun and addictive gameplay.”
“The mechanics of obstacles, wind speeds, and ability skills are not explained.”
“There really isn't any actual gameplay to look forward to because, like I said, it's the same thing over and over and over again and it gets old way too fast.”
“This game doesn't have the best golfing mechanics or the best soundtrack (aka the same song looping over and over and over again) which is completely fine if you hate yourself.”
