Golf Club Nostalgia

I just don't find it fun, I thought there was more in it in terms of game mechanics. I like the concept and the post apocalyptic setting, that's what attracted me, but after playing it for a few minutes I don't think I'm interested. I expected something where YOU control the character, like a platformer, and the golfing complements that, but you just aim vaguely with the extremely primitive system the game has and press the button to hit. That's WAY too basic to be an engaging game mechanic. I don't really normally listen to radio, I thought in this case it would add to the game atmosphere, but I'm not interested at all in listening to the "stories" they tell.. This game was an instant disappointment. I would even refund it, but I paid so little for it, I'll just leave it there in my library and consider the payment a little donation. Boring game, I don't get the fuzz about it.

While this game is quite good, some funny dialogues and good gameplay, I don't recommend this. It's minigolf game and that means trial and error. However, resetting a level is a chore in itself. There is literally 5-6 seconds of animation that plays and you have to press multiple buttons to freaking reset. Who thought this was a good idea? Because that person should not design games anymore. Another abandonware. Do not buy a this.

In a word: Frustrating. In so many ways. The number one frustration is the swing power, which feels incredibly unreliable. There must be different clubs, although that isn't communicated, because long shot go from overshooting to coming up short at the drop of a hat. It's at it's most unreliable when putting, where different surfaces have different friction. Trying to judge that difference is a crap shoot though. The frustrations continue elsewhere. The camera is annoying, following balls down into hazards when it is unnecessary. This results in a yo-yo effect if you're missing multiple shots. Many of the hazard provide no difference in challenge; water is the same as a pile of leaves, is the same as ooze, is the same as a squirrel, is the same as a gap between buildings. The perspective also makes some landing areas ambiguous or even obscured. The game is well aware of how frustrating it is, offering up a skip option. The game is quite good looking and for many players, narrative will be a big draw for the little story. It's a mixed bag in my opinion. The triple layer of radio play, written subtitle for each hole, and unlocking diaries made the delivery feel scattered. Of the three, the radio was the most satisfying, while the diaries had no allure. When I finished the game, the mini graphic novel is unlocked, which is a well rendered retelling of the story. It feels the most charming, without some of the truly depressing tones in the radio stories. It's not quite two hours. Plus, between unlimited shots and skipping, the game really doesn't hold you back from finishing. So it's not a big investment if you still want to try. It's just too bad, because with a couple better design decisions, it might have been far less frustrating.

A really well put together game. The environments and atmosphere were great, and the radio was a great touch that made me feel like i was in the game. A nice short experience that everyone should play.

amazingly addictive, great sound track and graphics. Wish it was a little longer.

Please for the love of god add checkpoints
