Sights & Sounds
- Surprisingly beautiful for a golf game. I highly recommend zooming out and looking at the level to appreciate the sweeping vistas of the post-apocalyptic world
- The music is stellar. I'm going to have "Two Astronauts" stuck in my head for a while
Story & Vibes
- The game contains some surprisingly deep lore about your golfer. Be sure to read the journal entries, pay attention to the blurbs at the beginning of each level, and read the post-credits comic to get a better idea of the story
- As you might expect, capitalism bringing out the end of the world results in some somber, reflective moments
- The political commentary is not subtle. That said, it is pretty amusing
Playability & Replayability
- The gameplay is somewhere in between a frustration game and a golf game. Some of the "platforming" can be tricky at times
- The game isn't all that hard. I only had to retry 7 of the game's 35 holes in order to make at least par on each
- I'll be back to clear out the rest of the achievements someday
Overall Impressions & Performance
- Great game for the Steam Deck
- Unless you're a trashcoin-munching Musk fanboy, you'll probably find the game's overall message poignant and its jokes pretty funny
Final Verdict
- 7/10. It's a fun little experience, but it is short (2-3 hours). Worth it on sale if you enjoy golf games, though
