Infinite Golf
SCORE: 74
Thank you Petite Games for giving Family Friendly Gaming a digital
download code for Infinite Golf on the Nintendo 3DS. This hand held
video game is selling for $1.99. There are two modes in Infinite Golf.
The first is Endless Mode. In Endless Mode players shoot endlessly at
each hole. You can rack up the score going through as many holes as you
decide to go through.
The second mode in Infinite Golf is Arcade Mode. In Arcade Mode players
have three balls. The goal is to beat as many levels as you can with
just those three balls. The better you do on each hole, the longer you
will be playing in Arcade Mode. Infinite Golf can be really fun in
Endless Mode, and really frustrating in Arcade Mode. Strike that, I got
frustrated in Endless Mode too.
Why would Infinite Golf frustrate me? The controls are the answer to
that question. How does Infinite Golf control? We swipe on the touch
screen. That means direction and speed are determined on how you swipe
on the touch screen. Families have to play Infinite Golf all on feel.
How do you feel the angle will work? How do you feel how large of a
swipe is needed?
Some of the courses in Infinite Golf drove me nearly insane. Like
straight up and down verticals where you ball gets stuck right by them.
I could go straight up and come straight down. I had to smack into the
wall hard enough to get myself away from it. I wasted numerous shots
learning how to get by certain spots in Infinite Golf. The indie
graphics did not bother me. Especially considering the price, and the
digital only nature of this 3DS video game.
I love the music in Infinite Golf. It settled me down when I was having
trouble with certain courses. Infinite Golf will only work on Nintendo
3DS XL devices. I tried it initially on an original Nintendo 3DS and it
would not work at all. I enjoyed my time with Infinite Golf on the
Nintendo 3DS. The levels felt like they randomly generated most of the
time. Which is cool, but at times the same kind of a level would appear.
