The humor in the game is appreciated for its lightheartedness, particularly with amusing elements like the "funny golf ball" that adds a playful touch. However, some players feel that certain achievements, such as reaching one billion, are overly ambitious and detract from the overall comedic experience.
“The funny golf ball keeps the pain away.”
“It could definitely use some achievements like 'get 1 hole in one' or 'get 5 holes in one', but my main gripe is that one billion, while funny, is simply not possible during the course of normal play.”

Replayability in this game is influenced by a divide in the community, with hardcore golfers favoring the challenging desert courses, while others appreciate the more accessible gameplay on Mars. The introduction of new mechanics and customizable options enhances the overall experience, making it appealing for varied playstyles.
“It's the sequel to the best golfing game of all time, with added mechanics such as spin, camera movement, and options to make the game more playable.”
“The community seems to be split between the more hardcore golfers who obviously will prefer desert golfing over the more forgiving (and, more playable, in my opinion) golf on Mars.”
“It's the sequel to the best golfing game of all time, with added mechanics such as spin and camera movement, but it lacks the replayability that made the original so engaging.”
“While the new mechanics are interesting, they don't significantly enhance the replay value of the game.”
