Sometimes Frustrating, Always Addictive
Aerodynamo
The game helps fill those few-minute voids with nothing to do. It’s a wonderful distraction. I find myself playing it at the strangest of times. Developer is very responsive as well.
A worthless, shallow timesink

Is your time valuable? Then I urge you to stay away from this ‘game’. Calling it a ‘game’ is a stretch. One dimensional gameplay. Minimalism taken to the unnecessary extreme. Asteroids has twice the gameplay complexity.
Why can’t I stop playing this game?

It’s so great. But it really needs an instant reset button or a fast-forward feature. Watching the ball slowly roll down a hill is a bit grating by the 97th hole.
Good game, but...

I’ve been playing this game for awile, Im on level 302 right now actually, but its getting a little boring. I think this game could use some more features like, maybe a puddle of water that slows down your ball with a little splash effect, or like a bottomless pit that sends your ball back to the beginning of the level. This game has a lot of potential and i’d love to see it evolve.
Mindless, glorious deserts

I came across a cloud, and shot the ball at it. Nothing happened to the cloud. I’m worried that I may have angered the gods and it may be another 700 holes before I see a cloud again. There really isn’t any better mobile game than this. The simplicity provides replayability. It is zen, and I can play it for 20 seconds waiting for a conference call to start up, or for a few minutes before bed. Those decrying lack of options, replay button, stars, and congratulations make me laugh. The entitlement generation that needs to be told that they are doing such a great job for just existing. These children could not survive on older game systems where you didn’t get an achievement popping up just for playing the first level of a game.
A beautiful rebuke to the state of the art

There are no achievements. The game doesn’t care if you get a hole in one or take 100 strokes for a hole. There is no tutorial, and no need for one. The holes have not been designed for a single solution, or even multiple solutions. The holes do not get harder. They do not introduce new hazards. You cannot acquire new skills, gears, collectibles, or power-ups. There is no story. There is no end. It is a toy for you to play with, a physical thing that is not trying to reward or punish or incentivize or otherwise engineer you. Just play with it. Enjoy the little sand splash and the click of hitting the ball. Of course you might feel happy when the ball goes in the hole, but that’s up to you and not the game. Have fun and enjoy being left in peace. I can’t be harassed by other games after this.
Made It To The End
Flooseman
Very calming game. Enjoyed it so much I went all the way to the end of the course - 33025. I would love to reset and start over but I do not see an option to do that. If you could add that option, that would be great.
Lame

There is no way to restart a hole or anything. It is clear the object is to go under par but without a way to restart it is just a really lam $2.00 game
Helped me through some stressful times

I just want to say thank you for this game! Desert Golfing has really helped me through some stressful times in my life. This game has been a much needed meditation. Has truly made my life better.
Not technically endless

I wish this was infinite because the game is wonderfully simple and the best time filler I have ever found. The sad reality (probably sad I put this much time into a cellphone game) is there is only 10,000 holes. Might delete and start over...
