To restate the title of my review, let that sink in for a moment... I find most games on an iPhone to be petty, heavily micro-transactional, and aimed for dweebs, to be blunt. Trust me, my New Balance 409s aren’t too tight when I say that I totally dig this game. I can’t stress enough how lackluster golf is to me, and yet here I am, fist pumping after an Eagle on a Par 5. After much effort, I finally unlocked The Majors on the Scottish Classic course.... it’s gusty and slopes galore on not only the fairway, but the greens are a nightmare at first glance. Put some English on it, if you want a tip. I usually play much worse on a first-visit tournament, but there I was at the end of it all, holding a -14 scorecard to win the son of a gun. I’ve got the screenshot to prove it. I have never been so dialed in on a mobile game in my life, other than RuneScape, so redact what I said about dweebs... I might be a dweeb, making such a bold claim. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this game to anyone curious about it. My only request, is that the developers could somehow incorporate a private online party mode, maybe requiring a passcode to get in, so I could match against my friends and what have you. Just a thought, but nonetheless, killer game... BRAVO!

What’s the point in winning millions of dollars when everything costs less than $600k? Why is the American Open 100x more difficult than any other course? I went from a -22 in the Maestros on my first attempt to +10 at AO after many restarts. I don’t understand why there’s such a massive difficulty gap if there’s no club upgrades to somehow combat it. It’s legitimately impossible to birdie or even par some holes on there yet the simulated competition wins with a -8 so I can’t help but think RNG plays a role too with how good the competition is on top of the wind conditions. AO should be changed or at the very least the computer shouldn’t be able to finish with such an insane score. If you can’t get to the green on even one par 5 in 2 shots then how are you supposed to get under par at all? Every par 4 plays like a par 5 as it is. Are you only able to win if you somehow hole out every approach shot? Also if you have to choose between hitting the trees or letting the wind carry you off the fairway then you truly have no chance. I say the game is incomplete because this seems more like a first draft because of how unplayable the AO is. It also seems weird to have it in the same category as the others because it’s so wildly different in difficulty. If that’s the only course where you really need a whole new set of clubs created for just it then surely you’ve done something wrong on design.

I don’t think I’ve ever left a review before certainly not for a game. This game is absolutely excellent. Very satisfying. Familiar mechanics compared to other golf games I’ve played but with a cute and unique design. Just the right spot between challenging and relaxing. No bugs or serious lapses in design, seems thoroughly planned out (well, it can be hard to gauge tree height sometimes, but you get used to it ftmp). Not some petty cash grab or cheap app. Goes on and on with more content and gets enjoyably more challenging. I’ll be purchasing the expansion packs but want to unlock all the initial content “the hard way” first. If you don’t like any particularly obnoxious ads you can close the app and it saves where you are in whatever tour you’re on. Awesome, great job. Hope you keep making new content or a sequel some day. So I’ll absolutely be buying the expansions to support you guys and check out your other apps. Thanks for a good quality product.

This game is a good game and is at the right level of difficulty for me. Some frustration is needed when playing golf because it keeps you coming back to try and beat your score, however sometimes it gets a little too frustrating and makes me quit to another course. Some changes: 1. Fix the trees, when you’re going over trees to get to the green on various holes, it says you can make it but you end up snagged in the trees. A fix for this would be to tell where the ball would actually go by changing the way the shot preview looks, like if you’re going into a hill. Also, if you’re in the trees there should be a way to go under them to get out, like being able to hit a stinger. 2. Have accurate yardages next to the dots in the shot preview. Yardage markers would make it much easier to control where you want it to go. 3. Add special shots you could hit, like a stinger; low but fast to get out of trees or get a lot of roll out. Also something like a flop shot; very high and somewhat short with a little bit of backspin.Overall at the very least, implement these changes and this would turn into one of the best games of all time.
