The game’s core mechanics are straightforward—it’s all about judging the power meter and wind direction， with no cluttering progression systems or pay-to-win elements to get in the way. You open the game， select a level， take your swing， sink the ball， and move on to the next level. This ‘one swing， one round’ rhythm is perfect for those spare moments—play a couple of shots whilst waiting for the bus， or power through a few levels during your lunch break， with no pressure whatsoever. The physics simulation is fairly solid. The wind isn’t just for show； the difference between crosswinds， headwinds and tailwinds is very noticeable. Although the ‘sweet spot’ on the power gauge is narrow， once you’ve got the hang of it， your success rate will steadily improve—it’s not the sort of design that relies purely on luck. You have five shots per level， but if the ball goes out of bounds or lands in the water， it’s game over. The starting point is sometimes a long way from the finish， and you have to inch your way there shot by shot； there’s basically no hope of getting a hole-in-one. Sometimes the finish is very close to the fence， and a slight tremor of the hand can easily send the ball out of bounds – moments like that really get your blood pressure soaring. Furthermore， the content is a bit sparse. I cleared all the levels in less than an hour or two； if there were more levels， the replay value would be much better.
