Electronic Arts is back on the green lawns of golf, offering a totally arcade title that will appeal to a wide audience certainly heterogeneous, not least because of the simplicity and immediacy of the bottom, but combined with a degree of a challenge really well-balanced and fulfilling since the early levels. King of the Course is a golf title that is far from the most classic Tiger Woods, to offer an experience that comes close to what has already been appreciated securities such as Flick Golf!.
The aim of the game as easily imaginable, is to throw the ball into the hole, but not necessarily. And the title does not only require to put the ball in the hole, but to make points by throwing the ball as close as possible to the center of a large target. In many areas of the game, the user will have three throws, and greens will be set up near a giant target, complete with concentric rings that bear a different score.
Much closer to the center you will be able to throw the ball. The more points will be awarded. In other situations the player will have to comply with the usual rules of golf, trying to stow away the ball in the hole, trying to comply with the PAR, ie the number of shots standards established for that particular race.
To achieve these goals will not have to face a hard and complex tutorials, because the game mechanics are totally arcade and easy to learn. A tap on the screen, more or less prolonged, will begin the launch phase, while featuring a slide forward will be able to perform the launch.
After throwing the ball, it will be possible, almost a duty, to intervene on the same trajectory, while in the air. When the ball is in flight the player can perform a rapid slide screen in any direction, giving the ball to a particular effect, and direct it to the big target.
If the core mechanics could approach the game with the aforementioned Flick Golf, is the context to differentiate the two products. This King of the Course provides more realistic graphics, and real fields allow you to scale: to wait for the player, there will be over 300 challenges on some of the best golf on the PGA TOUR in the world: such as TPC Sawgrass, St.
Andrews, Banff Springs, TPC Scottsdale and Pinehurst no. 2. Again, just to make a bit of realism, which is lacking in Flick Golf, you can play as real players like Bubba Watson, Ian Poulter, Jason Dufner, Dustin Johnson and Keegan Bradley.
