The gameplay is characterized as an arcade-style golf experience rather than a simulation, featuring a limited swing mechanic that restricts distance options to either very short or very long shots. Additionally, players have noted an unrealistic dampening effect on the golf ball, which can lead to unexpected stops mid-air.
“It's not a sim; it's an arcade-style golf game. While some mechanics are more realistic than in other golf games, others are not. For example, you cannot really choose a speed to swing your club; it either goes 5 meters in front of you or 100-200 meters away—there's no in between. There's also an arbitrary dampener on the golf ball; it will only go to a certain speed and then slow down. If you don't believe me, hit the ball hard with a putter, and you'll see it come to a dead stop mid-air and drop.”
