What the Golf? Review (GregB)
I enjoyed this game from start to finish. From the very start it's fun and kind of addicting and doesn't lose this momentum it gains at the beginning. I absolutely recommend this game, however I do have a few gripes with it.
The positive:
- Fun and addicting gameplay from start to finish (as I've said above)
- The game doesn't overstay its welcome. The campaign doesn't feel drawn out and keeps innovating throughout itself to keep things interesting
- The hub worlds are cool
- The themes of most of the sub-areas are cool
- The extra episodes are great
- Some puzzles can be solved in multiple ways
- The humor and references are good
- Easy to 100%
- Simple but effective art direction
- Runs well
The neutral:
- The "boss fights" were fine. They got the job done but they could've been more of a challenge i think
- Some challenges were really fun and difficult in a fair way, some were just either a bit bullshit or completely luck based and some were just kinda whatever
- The daily challenges are okay but I don't know what purpose they serve other than to pad out the game time for achievement hunters
- The gimicks can get rather predictible
- LGBT flags randomly appear in some maps. Thought this was worth a mention for some people, I don't care about this tbh
The negative:
- I don't think the game is worth it at full price. Buy it on sale
- There are advertisements for the studios newer game in this game
- I don't like date specific achievements, soI wasn't fond of the daily quest and thanksgiving related ones. Thankfully these can be completed any time if you change the date on your computer.
- The soundtrack gets very boring
I think this is a good game overall and the main campaign deserves a playthrough at least once.
