    It’s unsatisfying and the controls don’t feel good and it just can’t hold up its frame rate.

    Dangerous Golf is a game you want to love, but it becomes increasingly difficult as you go: the unintuitive controls stop being cute and begin to become an annoyance; the objects you smash, which for a moment inspired joy, become an afterthought.

    The entire package of Dangerous Golf feels unfinished. Looking past the cool concept, nothing is exciting. The slow camera, the inconsistent controls, and bland mission structure combined with the fact that the game crashed numerous times during my playtime, led to much more frustration than there was enjoyment. The first few holes may have been fun, but Dangerous Golf quickly tumbles into a downward spiral of disappointment.

    The destruction doesn't have much of a satisfying crunch, exacerbated by the floaty ball controls when you're in peak destruction mode. The load times and egregious re-purposing of assets and areas kill any desire I have to get high scores on holes. And it doesn't even lean into its anachronistic, extreme-sport silliness thanks to its sterile Unreal 4 tech demo aesthetic and character-less "world tour." It's fun for a bit and then exhausts itself completely.

    While long load times aren't a huge deal in a game like Grand Theft Auto, they absolutely are one when you only get a maximum of about a minute of gameplay from each load. It's a small annoyance that builds to a huge one over time, and it highlights everything else that is wrong with Dangerous Golf.

Not sure why it is rated so low. Sure it is not as deep as some games that i have played but loving the breaking physics and sounds and trying to beat my mates scores. A good start from 3 fields if you ask me! Full Review »

    A fun enough game that will allow you to relax in the evening after a hard day, allowing you to break everything that the ball reaches

My big problem with this game is that it is mostly dumb luck if you do well. You have to really like watching stuff break to love this game because there isn't much strategy. Not for me. Full Review »
