Nano Golf: Hole In One

While I love Nano Golf and it has brought me much joy, after having completed all achievements, I feel a bit empty. Besides trying to get crazy scores on bomb, there’s isn’t really much to do, and for an arcade style game, having an end is a problem. What I’m suggesting is not necessarily to make the game play longer but to simply add more opportunity for variation and extend its lifespan a bit. I wish it were easier to select a random ball. I know this is already a feature but you can only do it some of the time and it’s really luck of the draw if you end up getting to randomize your ball. So that’s it, I think the game would benefit from an easily accessible random ball option. Thank you.

Nano Golf is a great time killer game. Often times you can just spend a whole bus ride navigating through the different courses. The controls are very easy to use, though you do run into the problem of the game wanting to cancel your shot when you go for certain shots. The different courses are varied and offer a good level of difficulty. There is a certain element of strategy that goes into every shot, such as finding the right angle and speed. The best feature is the number of balls you can unlock. It is very easy to unlock each ball, as you can unlock every ball simply through a few hours of play. Each ball offers its own aesthetic, as the music and backgrounds will change depending on the ball you use. Some differences in the balls is just aesthetic, such as how the basketball makes a standard basketball noise when bouncing off walls. Other balls completely change up the game play, such as the Puttomatic ball which acts like a cannon. The variety in the balls makes sure the game always feels fresh and new.

I like this game a lot. It’s a great time waster and it seems fun and fair. I also love how each ball changes the background as well as the music. Some even add gameplay tweaks which is great. Unfortunately I think I have been experiencing a glitch with this game that is preventing me from unlocking the bomb and new puttomatic balls (the two balls that you unlock by beating a certain number of levels in a row). I have a high score of 56 points and I have gotten over 15 points multiple times but I still haven’t unlocked either of these balls. I’m very confused about this and I wish I could unlock these balls. Other than that issue this is a fun, great game!
