Very well thought out and quick to play. I have been looking for a good golf game that has a fun solo mode and this is it!" / Bradley W. "What a great bunch of engineering. The stroke is cool. The clubs play true. As does the wind. Only sad part is nobody seems to know it exists. If you play golf in real life you'll enjoy this expressly for the controls and purity of play..." / Drew D. "Best golf game out there! It's the only not to be pay to win trash. No micro transaction, just courses to buy. No chests to unblock. Also more realistic, you can choose the clubs and you don't magically know where it will land, and you also don't play a stupid timing game to play. Just feels like golf. Kudos on making this game." / Tiago S. "Lots of fun and as challenging to play as actual golf. I'm enjoying the simplicity and colors of the polygon graphics..." / Richard D. "Brilliant game, probably the closest game to a simulation. No pay to win aspects and really bright future for mobile golf games" / Daniel D. +++ Get in touch +++ Discord: https://discord.gg/3NHxcTdT5B Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/golfdreamsofficial

Drag back, let it fly, and count your strokes. 2000 holes, one after another, across an endless course. No ads. No in-app purchases. No timers. Pay once, play offline. • One finger is the whole control scheme: drag back like a slingshot and let go. A short pull rolls a putt, a long pull lofts it high • Every hole is generated from classic course designs: island greens, Redans, Punchbowls, Biarritz swales, creeks, capes and doglegs • Par 2s, 3s, 4s and 5s: split fairways, blind tee shots, forced carries, rivers, ridges and valleys • Real yardages: the hole's length, your distance to the pin, and where your swing will land • Real lies: sand grabs the ball, rough holds it, greens run fast, and water costs a stroke • A real cup: putts lip out, drop in, or rattle the flagstick • Hole 468 is a famous island green, railroad ties and all • Wind from hole 11 on. Watch the flag and the grass, and aim off • Fly over each new hole before you tee off • Twenty worlds of 100 holes: parkland, links, desert, autumn, tropics, highlands, cherry blossom, canyon, alpine and savanna, by day and then by moonlight • Hole in one? The eagles fly out of the cup • Calm by design: a soft breeze, birdsong and a quiet pad, with realistic sound effects • Your one score is your total strokes. Sink hole 2000 and the sky fills with fireworks • Progress saves the moment each ball drops
