    I finished all the primary 9 levels of each world and only a handful of levels were satisfying to figure out, despite only using a web reference for one of them. Lots of guess and check work past the baby tutorial worlds, and once you finally do stumble upon the correct answer, many times you won’t even need to use all the shots you’re given.

    I finished all the primary 9 levels of each world and only a handful of levels were satisfying to figure out, despite only using a web reference for one of them. Lots of guess and check work past the baby tutorial worlds, and once you finally do stumble upon the correct answer, many times you won’t even need to use all the shots you’re given. I find that incredibly unsatisfying, like a jigsaw puzzle with a corner piece missing. The difficulty also wavers. World 7 is where things really started to get hard but World 8 for me was a cakewalk it took me like eight minutes besides the very last level. The presentation is clean and the music is pleasant but it cannot make up for the rest of it.    … Expand

    Golf Peaks isn’t that far removed from actual golf, given that people always rave about how great the sport is for being calm and zen and whatnot. While I can’t speak to that, never having been anywhere more than a mini-putt place, I can confirm that Golf Peaks is just as good for getting you into a zen puzzle zone, too.

    Golf Peaks is a gem of a puzzle game. Everything — its controls, presentation, and premise — indicates simplicity, but the ingenious puzzles won't let you breeze through this. It's an addictive enough title because of this, and while this is light on content, its relaxing nature means you won't mind too much. If you need a game that acts as a nice break from the longer and more stressful titles on the system, Golf Peaks is it.

    Golf Peaks is small in stature, easy to grasp, and quite elegant in design — so in essence, it’s the perfect puzzle game to play on the Switch, and it’s one that I recommend without hesitation.
