Leave a Review Easy Come Easy Golf
Norman-esque meltdown
Gameplay ceased during the last week of October. My Apple TV app was loaded, offloaded, deleted, and reloaded. The game will not function. The tv goes gray, and the startup screen will not appear. I downloaded the app to my iPad so that my data would be retained. The game tries to function on that platform, but when navigating from feature to feature, the screen again turns gray and the app times out.
The app has not received an update in over a month. The promise of online head-to-head matchups has never paired me with a competitor. The last review (prior to mine) was early September.
ClapHanz has always been a class act, as far back as the early Hot Shots franchise. I get that there are only so many things you can update within one game, especially a cloud game where download capacity could be limited. But to find the game totally non-functioning and zero data within the review or developer notes is disappointing, and using a one-star review as my only means of reporting an issue feels outright unprofessional.Show lessadopt this
Fun game
This game is one of the better golf games around. Fun yet challenging and the characters are interesting and quite diverse. I would have given this game a 5 star, but it has one major flaw. The triple tap only works about 30% of the time. It is rather annoying . You will be going along, and then it quits working. You have to go out of the game and come back in and even that isn’t a guaranteed fix. You can go down a club, but you will always come up way short then you had hoped to. Other than that, love playing this game. Hope you can fix this, then I will give it a 5!Show lessanniesguy
Fine entertainment
I’m not really a big golf fan, but back in the day, I really enjoyed Hot Shots Golf on my PS1. I’ve been searching for something similar for the past few years for iOS, but nothing has really captured that same feeling. So, when I got an opportunity to try Apple Arcade for a month, I found this game. My wife got a new phone and we received a 3 month trial in addition to the single month I already had. That being said, as much as I like the game, I don’t like it enough to pay $5 / month to play it. I would pay $10-$15 to have the game, but there really isn’t anything else on the Arcade platform that interests me (except, maybe Ballistic Bash). My time to spend playing games is limited, so I can’t justify the monthly commitment.

Thank you for playing Easy Come Easy Golf! Our team are working hard to meet your expectations! We appreciate your continued support.Great Game!
I was having trouble with the touch screen controls, and the lack of 3-click shot meter with controller was a problem in earlier versions of the game, but now that I can use 3-click shot control I'm getting much better results. Thanks to the developer for listening to player feedback and for making a super fun game! I hope Clap Hanz will also make more console golf games in the future... This and the Everybody's Golf games are the perfect mix of sim / arcade and I hope there will eventually be another game that collects player-favorite courses and characters from the older games. I would buy that in a heartbeat.Show lessPaleGoat
Great game!
I really enjoy playing this game. The different playing modes offer a variety of ways to enjoy the characters and courses. You can play a quick round in Tour mode or World Tourney mode or settle in to build up golfer scores in Score Attack. You can also dabble in experiencing the frustration of real-life golf in Survival mode.
This game for me has been such a great stress relief because is offers me mini “vacations” from the hustle of daily life and does so 9 quick holes at a time. The characters are entertaining , the course designs are really impressive and the little quirks like vacuum cup or no-pins are fun.
I hope the game continues to grow and evolve.Show lessmpbmd779
Latest updates stink
This is a fun game, but the latest updates are a huge step backwards. Users should be able to completely turn off the (less fun) three tap option so you don’t accidentally choose it and have to restart the whole app to get out of it. Same goes for 18 hole play… it might be nice on occasion but the games take too long, and simply mirroring the course and forcing a whole second round with the same characters makes the longer game feel like a chore. Hope they give users the ability to opt out of these latest “features” ‘cause they make the game less funShow lessjg@pdx
Why change the entire swing control this late? 7/1/22
The game is fun - play it to kill time and rounds are quick. Now with the new swing controls, it more than doubles the time to play a round. Awful change. At least add the option to play either way.
Update: Didn’t see the flick option. Does feel more sensitive now, but so much easier to play. Appreciate the response.Show lessDamide1
Love this game!
Love the game and I’ve been playing it nonstop for months! Characters are fun and the game is fast paced enough you can pick up and play a round in 5 minutes.
Only complaint with the latest update is the new triple tap mode and how you turn it on. I prefer the classic flick control and the way you’ve laid out the buttons, my muscle memory taps the bottom right of the screen to play, throwing me into triple tap mode. I usually exit back to the home menu and start over, but it’s annoying. Would love it if triple tap mode was an option you could set overall instead of a per-round selection. At least able me to set a preferred mode and have a single start button!Show lessMrBurrito

Thank you for your valuable feedback! We will share it with our development team and take it into consideration going forward. We appreciate your continued support for Clap Hanz Golf.I love the game, but it needs more polish
I have played many of the old Hot Shots Golf games on PS2 - PS3 and Everybody’s Golf on PS4. They are by far my favorite golf games. Clap Hanz Golf feels like a close cousin to the Hot Shots games, but not quitef as polished as Everybody’s Golf. I get that this is on a new platform and maybe not 100% the same team, but there are odd missing elements, like the lack of an impact sound effect when you putt the ball, that just makes the putting feel floaty. Not sure if rights issues prevent the inclusion of the Hot Shots courses, but would love to see some of those in this game. The touch controls are pretty good, but can be tough to master precision. I almost wish we could use the old 3-tap meter from Hot Shots / Everybody’s Golf. Please consider adding the old meter as a control option in a future update. Honestly, if you made this game for other platforms, I would buy it full price. The characters are great and game mechanics are super solid. Keep up the great work!Show lessFun to play
This is a fun game to play, but I just can’t give it five stars being the aerospace engineer that I am. Any one not like me can ignore the rest of the review. Just play the game and enjoy.
Issues
1. The elevation shown is for the green, which is completely useless for 50% of the shots. It should show the elevation of the grid center.
2. There is no way a 5 mph wind bends the flight path as much as this program does.
3. The flag pole is modeled as a brick wall and the ball come off of it with the same amount of energy as when it was hit. That is not what happens. The flag pole is fiberglass and the further up it is hit the more it flexes and takes more energy out of the ball.
4. Match play is not according to the rules of golf. A winner is declared if the opponent cannot mathematically close the gap in the number of holes left to play. This game declares a winner if you are up by three holesShow lessDischacker
