3D Ultra™ Minigolf Adventures
Words cannot describe how powerful and emotionally moving this game is. In point of fact, I would say that 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures sets a new standard not only for the videogame industry, but also for all art in any medium. The work of William Shakespeare wilts in comparison to the raw energy that radiates from this majestic creation.
Fools might say that 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures is “glitchy”, “broken”, or worse yet “borderline unplayable”. Those people are unwashed heathens whose puny minds simply cannot comprehend the intricacies of high art. Academics are able to correctly see Wanako Games' mind-bending piece illustrates the simple truth that, since human beings are inherently flawed creatures, all things that they create will in turn be inherently flawed. Take, for example, the “Outer Space” courses. Whenever I attempt to play on any of these courses, my computer begins to dry heave like a bloated walrus attempting to give birth to a tractor-trailer. Fools might see this as a flaw, but those academics who can understand what Wanako Games is attempting to achieve here can begin to appreciate the majesty of such a feature. Space is often called the final frontier, and by making the game near impossible to play on any of the Outer Space courses, Wanako underscores human limitations. When the you attempt to push the limits of humanity Wanako breaks your computer and forces you to confront the fact that there are certain things human beings cannot do. Thus, Wanako furthers the theme of the inherent failings of humanity. While another game might seek to blindly empower the player, 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures is far more intentioned and careful in its gameplay.

Very basic mini-golf game, with only 36 unique holes in the career, with the first 18 being unlocked in the first leg of the career, the second 18 in the second leg, and the third and final leg of the career makes you go through all 36 in one sitting. There’s an additional 18 tiki-island-themed holes that have their own campaign, suggesting that they may have originally been part of some DLC or something and are incorporated into the base game for free now. The only reason I’ve spent ~7.4 hours in the game was because of how clunky putting, the most fundamental part of golf, is here: in order to get the ball to go much of anywhere, you need at least 40% power; however, anything over 60% power will probably send the ball out-of-bounds, and it’s very tricky to hit that happy medium. There’s a custom-hole-creator, but it’s super-basic, with no online-sharing capabilities. There are four personae, two males (a punk rocker with no mouth and a high-school footballer with no eyes) and two rather-sexualised females, both with their navels showing, so I can’t really recommend this one for the kiddos, either. Best to save your money and pray that one of Steam’s Early Access mini-golf games ever come out for full release…

Mulligans Golf Game
Mulligans Golf Game is a Local Multiplayer (split screen), wacky, arcade golfing game. Gameplay is a combination of open world freedom and old school console split screen arcade style play surrounding a simplified yet challenging golfing experience. It is not a Sim but is designed to provide the scenarios and emotions that come when playing real golf. Players choose from the available pool of legendary characters and pre-built maps, playing solo, attempting to set new personal bests, going for course records (local and global leaderboards), or grabbing some friends and challenging each other to see who is the best!
What is there to do?
Play local matches competing against yourself. Personal Records (per character) and Local Leaderboards (per map) are maintained. Global Steam leaderboards are also implemented so you can compete against others for the top spot!
Local Multiplayer has up to 4 players with Steam’s Remote Play enabled. So if you don’t have someone local to play against, invite a friend over the airwaves! Play matches against each other and make in game wagers on who is going to do better (long drives, closes to the pin, and best score). Also, checkout the driving range for a few different game modes and see who can get the better score. Or just run around throwing golf balls at one another.
Taking a Swing
As a player, you are given all the tools you need, but must make the decision on what kind of shot (normal, punch, flop, chip), how to shape it (fade, straight, draw), and how hard to hit it. The game will not tell you any more than recommending a club to use. So lineup and take a few practice swings to determine your plan of attack. Practice swings will update the estimated shot trajectory, allowing you to determine if your current approach is going to work. Then it is up to you to replicate your practice swing once addressing the ball. And if you mess it up, hopefully you have one of your Mulligans available to redo it.
Current features include:
-
Preset Legendary Characters
-
Pre-built maps
-
Stroke and Skin match play
-
Wagers
-
Driving Range and Practice Greens for improvement (map specific)
-
Local Leaderboards, Character PBs (per course), Global Steam Leaderboards.

PGA TOUR 2K21
Coming from The Golf Club 2019. While the game was extremely rough on the edges, especially on the presentation being awful, I still loved the game for one reason : The gameplay. It felt amazing and I fell in love with it despite all the other shortcoming.
When I saw PGA Tour 2k21 out, I expected to be completely let down, the usual EA tactic of releasing the same game with barely if any change at all. Luckily I was wrong on this regard. A ton of gripes I had with TGC2019 was corrected, such as partial swings being impractical, the green grid partially covering the green, no spin control on the ball and no customizable clubs/stats. Yes the game is basically TGC2019 V.2 but, to be honest for a moment here, you can’t really add anything too substantial to a sport game that relies on being realistic beside polish. I do agree on the fact that full price for this game is a tad expensive : You do need to enjoy realistic golf to make the price tag feel right.

Full disclosure, I bought the Deluxe Edition when it was on sale for about 30 bucks and I had a $25 Steam gift card, so this game was as close to free as I could get without someone gifting it to me.
Would I recommend this at full price to anyone for the Deluxe Edition? No.
Would I recommend this to someone getting it at a steep discount? Absolutely.
Now, on to the review.
You’ll read a lot of negative comments about the commentary, and all of it is true. It’s repetitive, rarely describes what’s actually happening, recaps will seem like they’re from an entirely different match, etc. This is spot on critique. There is a lot of jank in the way the commentary will put together random phrases to try and simulate actual play by play and color commentary. But sometimes, that jank is golden.

Perfect Round Disc Golf
If you like disc golf, this game will hook you up. The courses are beautiful. The discs fly realistically. Gameplay is fun, easy to learn, yet challenging enough to make you continuously want more. More skill gains, course unlocks, character unlocks, and more! Your first round, you may be turned off by the “goofy game characters”. In response, the author added regular humans, but the game characters are unquestionably more fun to play! And now with easily attainable new Skins, the game characters have even more character! NO Pay to Play, all game unlocks are FREE to earn! This adds an interesting video game aspect to an already great golf sim.

One Man development “team”. Rough Around the edges, extremely playable.
While there are some minor flaws, from reading up many of them are on the road map to be addressed. Personally the biggest “flaw” Ive found are the downhill flight physics; a disc can keep going for 1200 feet almost as if the disc is “falling down a hill” if that makes sense. Again, an early access title still in development.
I feel as if this game captures disc golf almost perfectly. I havent been able to play for a year and a half, when previously it was 3x a week, so this game is filling a hole for me.

Worms Crazy Golf
Background: I’m a casual fan of Worms game, love everything about it. I’ve played golf maybe 10 times or so in real life. I picked up the game on a humble bundle.
This is one sweet game. You have 4 18 hole courses to play in a 2d platform style. You choose your club from a driver, iron, wedge or putter, each behave differently and choose your angle and how much power to swing it.
You have a few different objectives, you need at least a Par to progress, although later with powerups its common to get hole in ones. You will need a great mix of strategy, powerups, planning, and luck to get it right.

Worms Crazy Golf is, as the title suggests, a golf game in Team17’s Worms universe. It is not a serious golf game, like for instance Tiger Woods PGA Tour or Links, but a more wacky 2D golfer keeping with the series comical tone and graphical style. Supposedly it is a sequel to the 2004 mobile game Worms Golf, but who cares, right? The object of the game is to complete each hole on par or below par with its par number. If you fail to do so you have to play the hole again. There are three courses (four with the added mini expansion Carnival Course) that contain 18 holes each. Once in awhile you get to play extra challenge levels where the object can be to keep the ball in motion for a certain time or to pop all balloons, etc. These challenges are quite fun and can be a good break from the normal levels.

100ft Robot Golf
This felt more like an anime with interactive bits than a game. At several points matches are ended early with the match finishing in the cutscene. How you do in the matches has no bearing on the story, either, and you’re constantly forced to change character. Each character has a different special ability, but in several cases I couldn’t work out what they did, and it was never explained. I’m sure the anime part is enjoyable if you’re familiar with anime, but I’m not- I just wanted to play golf with 100 foot robots.

Wanted to write something longer, but haven’t played too much and wanted to keep it the review digestable.
I recommend this game with the stipulation that you buy it for $15 or less and enjoy the McElroy’s or cheesy humor meant to mimic the style of 80s/90s anime involving mech pilots, as well have having some friends to play with.
The gameplay is standard enough (it’s golf), only now you’re in mechs and can destroy buildings and try to hinder each other from making shots. Controls are mapped well and feel varying between mechs but are a bit cryptic, since they aren’t really explained anywhere so it’s more trial and error when you first pilot a new one. Special weapons feel nice as well, though, again, they aren’t explained too well. Physics might be a bit too floaty, though we do golf on the Moon and under the sea, so I suppose those are the reasons for it.

Speedy Golf
Speedy Golf is simply a blast! I generally don’t like golf games but this one is different. It’s fast paced, fun, and a bit silly.
I’ve had so many fun nights jumping into this with friends.
It’s one of those games where it’s easy to learn but difficult to become an expert. I’ve really enjoyed learning strategies to improve my online leaderboards.
I’m also a big fan of coop games. Speedy Golf has a Leap Frog mode that adds a really engaging coop mechanic to golfing.
10/10 hands down great game.

Get a group of friends together, and try out Leap Frog mode. It’s a form of scotch doubles, or alternating shots every turn. It’s absolutely hilarious when you fill a room with 8 players split into 4 teams of 2.
This game will entertain both golf and racing fans alike! The golf feels great, and the online setup puts most online racing games to shame. Online leaderboards means you can compare your skill to players all around the world - load up their ghost and race directly against them to improve your time!
