Personal review

My biggest complaint with this game are the graphics, which are unworthy of the PC-Engine's graphical capabilites and takes lots of time to build up after each shot. This takes away all dynamic from the game. Gameplay mechanics are average, only one course with 18 holes are not very much and at the time of release there were already a couple of better top-down golf games for the PC-Engine on the market. Why they decided to port an average golf game from homecomputers to the PC-Engine is a bit beyond me.

Official description

"I designed my golf game with one goal in mind - to create the most realistic simulation of championship golf in the world. Tee to green, it offers the most breathtaking scenery available. And I've made sure that there's variety and challenge built into every hole. It's my mind of golf - uncompromising. And I know you'll enjoy it as much as I do."
