This game is ok. As far as golf games go, it's a little "wonky". Shots aren't precise but rather relative to your aim, power etc. As a beginner (1st 2 weeks), even with club upgrades it's impossible to reach one particular par 5 on the 3rd shot, as it takes 4 decent shots to reach the green. I need to play longer to know how good it is (or not). I have not yet played any tournaments, so am unsure of that aspect of the game. It's a good game if you don't have much exp with other golf games.

Not a fan of the compass needle aim mechanic. Golf Rival is one of the few if any games that uses the scale method for lack of a better description. Lacks so many ways to land a shot. Like most golf games it makes you play fixed games where you are the winner by default. NO ONE needs to learn how to play golf on their phone.

I have tried playing a number of golf games on Chromebook, and normally start out very well. However, I usually lose interest within a few weeks. This game can be fun, but what is frustrating is you can routinely outplay one of your competitors and lose the hole because your opponent chips a ball in the hole out of nowhere. Holes-in-one and Eagles are commonly made during the course of play, and are far too common. As an experienced golfer, I get frustrated when this happens.
