Review by GuestFeb 10th 2024

LIked it at start/ It's a really fun golf game. Then, like lots of people mention, you get paired against people with whom you simply cannot win. They have extraordinary clubs and balls and make extraordinary shots, and unless you spend extraordinary amounts of money, you won't. And suddenly your shots aren't going the saem distance as shots by other people. Sometimes you blow by you opponent, sometimes they blow by you-for the same shot, taken with the same power and ball, with the same club, in the same wind. Neither way is fair.

I know the owners are in it to make money, but they must make a boat load on ads. So why don't they divide players into 2 groups: one that buys equipment and one that simply erns by playing. The purchasers can't paly down into the earn it group, but the earn it gorup could paly up just to see how much easier the game is if you spend money. My guess is doing that will induce some players to spend, which will increae the owner's income.

It is fun to play, well was. Until you encounter players with clubs and other abilities way above yours, then you may just as well forfeit the game as a lost cause.

One step forward, two steps backwards, or more by the time you reach level 13 plus.

The wind is highly inconsistent and changes per strike with too many factors affecting the overall outcome. Makes it very frustrating.

The worst aspect is the cost of special balls and upgrades, 500 gems for 10 balls essential for the ridiculous tiebreaker shots yet it takes weeks to get a couple hundred gems. Clubs can be upgraded past past stage 12 as the cost is way too high and the card system takes a millennium to get enough cards to upgrade. All the freebies are fun to collect.

Overall, it's a money grabbing game in a money grabbing rich man's world. I don't pay so am eternally stuck in the one step forward, two steps backward stage 13. Eventually I will no doubt give up and delete it

This game app is only interested in sales , it has a obvious algorithm that decides wich player will win before you even tee off , the placement of ball for windage is very inconsistent at best , if you don't want to spend money I suggest you stay away from this game, the the game has alot of issues to be worked on but has potential if the makers stop being greedy for money

I can't believe I'm doing this again in the same da. GR is impossible to get ahead unless you spend a lot of money. I thought I spent quite a bit, but must be not be to their standards. I'm 67 years old, and I just want to carry at what they have done to this this gentleman's game and how google allow them to do this. Sad....Sad

Very inconsistent, tournaments have become boring and the prizes are crap

When you have a draw, why can't the wind conditions be equal. Not to have separate one's. This benefits one player not both. This game really sucks

Worst game I ever played. Unless you spend a ton of money, it is hard to stay competitive. The clock. Where is there a clock in golf. Are you kidding. Will be looking for a better game. This one is just money grabbing

I've played this game for a very long time and I love it but when I go in to Kingsland are the kingdom you have people in there that use cheat codes and then in your Arena you have people that have better equipment and they take over people starting out because they don't have the clubs that they do that is not fair I have spent a little bit of money on 40 kangaroo balls and never got them so I'm between or neither play mini golf King or State playing this one

The game is so unfair from changing wind speeds after selecting clubs, to always allow w the opponent to have a synchronized shot, to adjusting trajectory after shot is made...etc,etc,etc.......you either pay to play and win or you play for free and hardly win....the key is to try and outsmart the algorithm! Knowing this, play, have fun, don’t get frustrated.......it’s just a game......... !

Increase clock times for shots. There are no clocks in golf. You have to spend alot of money to upgrade. That could be done better

Review by GuestApr 7th 2021

What is frustrating is every rival, regardless of skill level, can chose any ball and I can't. The game doesn't tell you how to buy a ball. Finally, some rivals get more performance out of there hits even though they use the same ball, club and power as I do. Hmmm! I enjoy the game itself.

I put a review on 31/1/21 explaining the RIP off this game is. Well someone must read these reviews because today 3/2/21 I was playing and low and behold the amount of incredible EAGLES from so called opponents was phenomenal.

You have to pay big money to get anywhere.

Well.Andrew Jones one day the Karma bus will get you hard

Great game but an absolute rip off.

Have played hundreds of games and opponents seem to be pulling eagles out of their backsides.

Most of mine miss by a whisker.

Most of the time I wonder am I really playing against an opponent or AI.

More than likely because I haven't paid a cent and don't intend to.

Pay to play rip. Fun for awhile. Then your up against guys who have leveled up clubs so fast and have no chance of winning matches. Played over 5000 matches and have level 3 top club and go against a guy whos played less than a thousand games and some how has a level 6 or higher club. L O L. Waste of my time if i cant ever win. Lost intrest dont bother.

Was fun for a while but I feel they know I haven’t spent big money, shots that I made in the beginning, now with better clubs I am missing. Seem to wing up OB a lot because the club did do what it was supposed to. Ironically it would have always been rectified with more power. I.e. higher club value.... which can be fixed by spending $$$$$
