Who fucking designed this? It feels so goddamn antiquated for 1993 - and it has a little bit of charm for that, but like, it's barely playable at all. It uses this utterly confounding control system where instead of a fully-simulated 3D view, it uses a top-down view, and then gives you a view of the top-down map and a small 3D viewport when you make your shots. It's also a tiered menu, where instead of assigning buttons or toggles to each point of data you'd want to control, you go through them with steps: Clubs, direction, impact point on ball, then shot power. There is no convenient or logical correlation between any of the information it provides to you. Course design is abysmal, completely littered with random islands and unnatural 45-degree edges on the fairways and other terrain. And yes, like you'd expect, the putting is inexcusably broken. The whole package feels like it was made by someone who simultaneously never played golf or a golfing video game, and was simply told to make something kinda like PGA Tour.

The sole good thing this game does is that swinging ONLY checks your power level; your shots are always 100% accurate, and if you want a curve on your ball, you simply select draw/fade on the impact point screen. It's a neat ease-of-access design choice, but it's completely meaningless in the sea of every other bad decision this game makes.

Do not play Chi Chi's Pro Challenge Golf.
