Cursed to Golf is a roguelike about hitting balls with a stick. Went in expecting it to be 1-3 hours based on other reviews, but that's generally the time limit for when people give up. Used a keyboard/mouse. Thought this game was going to be a cute golf game - It's cute and there is golf - but there's a level of difficulty and auto-generated unfairness I wasn't expecting nor wished for that turned the game into something less fun. I think the problem lays in the fact that describing how to play is long, tedious, and does not tell you everything (including core gameplay mechanics). So it's less of a 'figure it out, learn as you go' experience and more of a chore. I accidentally started in the practice area and was wondering why I wasn't making any money or getting anywhere. Couldn't even sort out how to turn my guy around or change clubs. Then, eventually, I found how to properly start the game. Gave up after the long tutorial. Next day I tried again, thought I had figured it out, started having fun, then came up against a no win situation (thin vertical shaft ending in water with a small gap directly below me and only I'm assuming ricocheting to get through it. Then I learned about the cards. Third day, I was going to put it down, decided to pick it up one more time, did pretty good, beat the first boss, and lost interest in the next part. Have a feeling that's generally how I'm going to play this, always expecting to lose to weird unfairness curves. At the same time, I don't hate this game. It gives me hard Wii vibes. While I couldn't in the beginning, I can now see what the creators were trying to accomplish with the gameplay. At the same time, it's like they took an already core game and kept tacking on extra mechanics to it to make it niche and difficult, until it becomes a roguelite card game instead of a golf game. One with weird glitches and bugs that make it even more unfair (example: The ball went in sound and all and the game wouldn't register this until I hit it back out, then in again, wasting a par + card or two in the process). While I gave this game a thumbs up, a play session ago I wanted to give it a thumbs down. So think of this as a thumbs sideways. *Small note - If you want to play keyboard/mouse, do not do so with the controller plugged in because it will auto-decide you want to use controller and not give you any help with keyboard support or what keys you need to use. It'll also make the travel map between levels shift around like crazy and get in the way of other gameplay.

Great game that i got on sale for under $1. They no longer have available demo though. So hopefully my review can help you get any idea about the actual game. Gameplay ★★★★☆ Roguelike with ending. I'm thinking of this game as obstacle course. Think of those many cute golf game with super powers and obstacle. Cursed to golf is one of them, arranged neatly for modern gamer with classic taste. The game is about going through 18 holes of golf, where each hole is a set of obstacle playground. You will start with 1 permanent powerup called pins, and start with 7 disposable unique power. To do a shot, you press button from the sliding power gauge, then the angle. Within a set number of attempt, you have to finish the hole. If you don't you lose. After each level, you will be faced with possible route to choose. From bonus money, bonus power up card, or shop. There's a type of level called cursed hole, where you'll be challenged with random debuff. For example there was one time I couldn't use my driver club for 2 shot. After losing we can start over with another random permanent powerup and random 7 disposable powerup cards. Difficult to Win? ★★★★☆ Unlike most modern games, this game is tailored to the difficulty of games back in the 90s. It's meant to be hard, thus winning even the first hole already feels challenging. Despite being made for old school gamer, this game is packed with modern features especially those to make the process of playing becomes sensible enough to modern standards. My usual routine start by zooming out the whole map, planning my route, camera panning, then doing my shot. The power ups are fun. There's a rocket shot, where you can control the ball manually like a remote control. There's the U-turn where you can manually change the direction with a slow-mo pause. Aside from powerups, you can also spin the ball like billiards when it land. The track itself requires thoughtful planning, but the main star are the objects randomly put throughout the track. Some are traps, some are there to help. Overall, it's a combination of thoughtful route planning, choosing the right resource to help, and adjusting to each outcome to finish each level. Aesthetics ★★★☆☆ The music is so SEGAesque. And the art style despite the 16-bit tiles and color, it's made with ample resolution and ratio. SEGA era theme with modern execution. I can run the game with full res & FPS, but somehow applying my video setting requires toggling back and forth to apply. Doesn't matter for a one time thing. Other notes worthy of mention: - Dev seems small with only 2 title and another one upcoming to release this year. They're from Japan. - I got it on sale for under $1. - No available demo on steam. But for the pricing maybe it wouldn't be a problem to just buy the game and request refund if you really don't like it. - The tutorial does indeed take some time out of you if you really want to think of it negatively. But after giving it some thought, the tutorials were indeed necessary and compressed. It was all worth paying attention to, not draining, but perhaps a bit longer than my initial expectation for modern games. Recommended for those who: - Looking for best replay time on discounted small titles. - Admires game development especially those who likes to support smaller dev. - Puzzle or obstacle roguelite with no commitment. Fun to just play and ditch, might be even more fun to finish. Never buy if: - Looking for traditional or putt golf kind of gameplay. - Can't handle losing a game. - Want roguelite but not roguelike. ★☆☆☆☆ Bad ★★☆☆☆ Below expectation ★★★☆☆ About average, meets expectation ★★★★☆ Better than most ★★★★★ Amongst the best

It is a fun game, but was pretty difficult in my opinion, not really a casual pick up and play kind of game

This game is creative rougelite golf with retro soundtrack. The card powers modify the golf shots. Those cards are earned on the basis of luck. Hence, to earn all the achievements you will need some luck at the right hole level. You need luck at the right time. Finishing all the 18 holes will require you to sit through one complete 3-4 hour session..... I can tell you that one bad shot can lead to whole bad level. Thankfully, this game have restart hole feature which is not trivial... Press Quit to title, then continue... Abandon button completely close your run without saving.... Watch Out if you want to continue.

𝔻𝕦𝕕𝕖 𝕕𝕚𝕖𝕤 𝕨𝕙𝕚𝕝𝕖 𝕡𝕝𝕒𝕪𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝔾𝕠𝕝𝕗, 𝕟𝕠𝕨 𝕙𝕖'𝕤 𝕔𝕦𝕣𝕤𝕖𝕕 𝕥𝕠 𝕡𝕝𝕒𝕪 𝔾𝕠𝕝𝕗 𝕚𝕟 ℍ𝔼𝕃𝕃! Cursed to Golf is the kind of game that looks very straightforward at first glance; hit the ball, get it to the hole to clear the level. Sounds simple, right? Well, it's not, because to do that you'd have to take the longest path ever, twisting and turning as it unveils more mechanics, more tricks to put up your sleeve everytime you fail, and as it should be for this is the only ROGUELIKE game of Gold you'll ever find (probably) It's a very unique game to be sure. Pixel art mixed with a nonsensical story worthy of roguelike gaming, mixed in with Golf, at first it would sound really bizarre but it just works somehow. The transitions are smooth, there is a world map, and you're tasked to finish 18 holes to reach the end of the game, but every stage is procedurely generated and you'll have to pray for lady luck that yours is easier than the last. Some maps can be generated to have the hole right next to your feet, some would take you a couple of hours to finish, but the mechanics remain the same, you can flip your ball mid-air, or use a multitude of Skill Cards to cheat your way into the hole, but the guy is in hell so what does it matter? Everything is permitted in this realm. Because this is the only Golf game I've found that is such a unique experience, I'll give it 9/10 . Trust me, it's not as easy as it seems at first.
