Golf On Mars App Reviews

A nice little game for those who like things to be part puzzle and part video game... Of course, "mostly" because golf is one of those games that can occassionaly make you crazy. The author has done a great job making a game that is filled with interesting little surprises as the game goes on. It is an endless game where the difficulty level ebbs and flows. It isn't a game where it doesn't get increasingly difficult such that it becomes impossible. Just a nice back-and-forth in challenges.

This game is an excellent twist on Desert Golfing. 90% of the time it’s basically the perfect podcast game Unfortunately the number of impossible levels tends to be annoying, especially since you must make 25 shots before being offered the [skip] option. At the very least you should be able to skip from the menu with a 25+ shot penalty. It’s annoying to be stuck on a level that’s clearly not doable, and to have to slowly take shots until you can skip.

Get the original. There are a number of literally impossible holes as well as others that become so with game play. (Rocks that move and block the hole.) Further, the holes are often off the screen and only become visible with movement of the ball to the right. A sometimes frustrating follow up to the brilliant original.

I enjoy playing this very much. However, the stroke count becomes meaningless when you have an impossible hole and have to try 25 strokes before you are allowed to skip. So I give 4 stars. Would you consider a ‘reset’ button so we don’t have to delete and reload the app?

Up to 3400. Okay time waster but whatever algorithm is used doesn’t change after 200 or so. Pretty lame.

I rally like this game for killing time. Doesn’t require too much concentration, just simple physics. The fun never ends—I’m on hole 4600. I really wish it showed an overall average strokes per hole.

Nobody else is talking about this? I’m not a hole skipper, and I’ve done all the holes fair and square... until 331. Is this possible to do? Has anyone done it? It was my first, and hopeful last, time using skip.

Don't listen to people when they call this game zen-like. This game is for masochists. I love it so much.

Thanks a bunch for this game. It’s so simple and fun. I enjoy turning off the score and playing without caring about my performance or how many strokes I take.

Zoom out and high score resets after game restarts. Please fix.

It's a good game, with enough new techniques to make it worth a buy. I'll warn you ahead of time that some of the holes will have you scratching your head in frustration.

In 700 holes so far I’ve found 3 impossible ones that you need to use the skip option that appears after 25 shots on one hole. It’s kind of frustrating, but other than that very good game.

I’m waiting to see a Tesla pass by in the sky! Ya gotta love Elon Musk.

After a few hundred holes, the game went full-screen orange making it completely unplayable. Until then, it was loads of fun, but I had to delete the game and start over. Annoying.

What a successor to Desert Golfing! The infinite mode knocks out the minor issue I had with the original game. Hope the developers update the previous game with that. The Mars gravity is fun to deal with. Enjoy!

Game is awesome all around. Truly great design. Really dig this game and it’s crazy how dang addictive it is! Can’t praise enough

Pretty sure there’s no way to sink this one. And even if you could violate the laws of physics and somehow do it, there’s no chance of making the next one (#180). What gives? Is this a bug?

A friend of mine, a Paleolithic hunter-gatherer, called me up on her iPhone to say she found the last hole to be much more satisfying than the ending of Lost. I find that hard to believe, but will take her word for it.

I wonder what’s out there, let’s find out.

It's good and like Desert Golfing it's a good thirty seconds game. Little additions aren't mind blowing but they don't have to be. Still very funny in concept.

Golf on Mars is a solid aesthetic improvement, while maintaining what was so special about Desert Golfing.

Stop reading all these reviews and buy the game already.

Any golf game where you get holes that literally can’t be done seems like it was developed and published too fast. Please solve this problem.

I am on hole 13 and my ball fell into an opening less than 1/4 inch wide and fairly deep. I’ve tried too many times to escape and can’t. Force quit and it helpfully remembered my progress. I can’t figure out how to play anymore.
