Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
The game has been great during the years but in the last few months we havent been able to get on due to some kind of server issue. Please get this fixed ASAP.
Good game. We could see how players would spend money on it. Not us.
We have been playing for years now and we need a new update keep things intriguing.
Hi. We love this game and how much progress Ive done. But we would like to reset all of our data. Do you know how to do it? If so, can we do it ourselves, or do you the developer have to do it? Please do not reset our data yet. We just want to know if it is possible to do so.
We just dont like how you cant go back on your map.
Fun game but you can blow through the main upgrades pretty quick if you use the prestige function regularly. Tour events are kind of repetitive. We purchased the no ad function, too bad you cant use that on the special events.
Every time we start to get rolling, making money, unlocking tee boxes, ETC. The game crashes and says we have desynchronized from the server and it deletes everything we just did and gives us our money back.
We wanted to thank you for a wonderful game. Unfortunately the app no longer works as it continues to show lack of internet connection. Definitely not the case.
Once we got the amount of tee levels that we can afford above 2,147,483,647, we cannot use the Buy Max function, as it just defaults to x1. Unplayable now, as there is no way to buy several Billion tee levels 100 at a time. Dont bother downloading until this is fixed. You will not be able to progress in the game anymore because the devs didnt program the buy max option properly. We have explained to the devs what we believe is the cause of the issue, and they dont seem interested in fixing this game-breaking bug. Was fun until this happened. Edit: Its been several years since we ran into this issue (Tuesday, March 17, 2020), and no fix has arrived.
We purchased a 12.99 package today and didnt get one of the extras we were supposed to receive. Its waiting to see if they will fix this ir not. Buyers beware.
Game will not load. Says it needs internet connection. IPad is connected to the internet.
This game doesnt load often. Needs to be updated if they are going to keep this game out there.
Constantly have problems logging into this app.
This is good.. But Im irritated that the video ads dont work. It says to check connectivity or restart app or video not available. Losing a lot of money not viewing ads.. Fix this please.
Would be five stars if the ad boost would actually play. Wont work on cellular data or WiFi.
We wish this game would work like used to we cant play events correctly cause ads dont work to help grow our profits wow oh wow Ill try to play with out the ads but without spending money we probably wont get very far shame shame.
This game was fun until a week or so when all the bonus videos stopped working. Despite contact with the developers and following all their recommendations, nothing has worked. They just keep repeating the same recommendations with nothing new to suggest. They have even stopped responding to their support text threads. Not sure if waste our time with this one.
We keep getting a message that the video wont play because we have no internet connection, but we do.Very frustrating. Tried turning our IPad off then on. Tried uninstalling several times. Thenout of nowhere it starts working correctly then it stops again. Any help to fix this.
Ads have stopped playing to get bonuses.
Downloaded the latest update an now videos wont play to collect cash. Videos still wont play after 5 days of update, if not fixed in 2 days Im deleting the app!! We like the game but not like this.
If you have issues the response is appalling and you will have issues and ads mostly consist of make money games which are fake if we could give it a negative star rating we would fun game if it would play correctly.
Love this game. Latest update broke the ad bonus. Adds a challenge to get through events at a decent pace.
Game was good until last update 2 days ago… Now we are unable to to get and AD bonuses, tractor bonus, and 3x bonus all cause ads are unable to play…. Please FIX.
We wanted to thank you for a wonderful game. It looks like its time is about to end. We have noticed a sharp decline in the amount of ads even available to advance things. This was a fantastic game! Please continue your efforts in making great apps.
We love it so much because you can get a lot of money and it is fun.
It was nice, No ads, NO NOTHING, just golfing and upgrading.
Awesome game, very addictive and highly recommend.
OMG Ive been looking for a new idle game for a long time like a long-long time but this ones actually fun and addictive so shoutout to the developers who made this awesome app.
We were about to transcend with 1 platinum trophy or prestige with 1billion trophies!Then our game reset us completely!!! We didnt tap the prestige button or the transcend button either!!! All our hard work is gone!!! Please fix this, this is one of our last games that we have fun on, Id hate to see this game start getting worse, other games we have been playing started having updates that ruined the game or just where bad games, but this is really fun! And we hate to see it go down the road to ruin. So please fix this problem please. Also we feel like there are some problems with events, as soon as events start someone somehow has like 12000 cash 10 minutes in and by the end of the day they already have like 12.59 D!!! That doesnt seem fair but they used there diamond balls which can be purchased which we feel is cheating! They have like 12.59 D and second place has like 985 q and third has like 500 q thats not fair too players that cant afford to pay for the balls.
The ads are stupid long and the SAME one every time. We only play when doing other things so the ads dont get watched.
So dumb, watch a net flicks instead.
This was one of our favorite games… Then something changed. We always watch the ads… Help us and them out. But something changed recently were its near impossible to close an ad, no matter how much you push the x in the corner. Every other game still works normal, so its not our iPad. We hate trying to click to exit the ad for 3-4 minutes, its ridiculous.
Now our game will not load….. Was a good game to play but now its buggy.
When we finalize the eight-player change, the for a new theme and not is possible back to the old eight golfer player configured. Don't like… Sorry. We want to have a home icon and get the possibilities to continue playing with the first theme o any theme, not only move forward.
There isnt much more to say. We enjoy it. The only thing we dont understand is why none of our golfers ever get better at hitting the ball even though we have leveled up a lot.
Addictive. The only issue we have is when we watch an ad to gain cash bonus time, or to get the bonus cash from hitting the tractor, we can close it. We understand you have to wait until the ad is finished, which we do, but then theres no way to get back to the game. We have to completely restart the app. Once we log back in we havent received the bonuses from watching said ads.
This game was great until the last iOS update. Now every time we play it freezes and we have to quit and log back in. Awful, we liked the game a lot but now considering deleting it. Dont download.
Our app keeps resetting itself and stating us back off with $0.. We keep getting a message saying you have become desynchronized with our servers. The game will now restart. Why am we getting this message & can we please fix if.
After building up earnings of over a billion for the first time, we watched our total suddenly drop to $145 million. We made no purchases or upgrades, the funds just disappeared. We dont know if this is a common thing or not, but we certainly dont think Ill bother with this game any further.
Game wont even open ever since the last update. Get a black screen for a second or two and then it crashes.
Game crashes since update…cant enjoy the new features, assuming Im going to lose all the cash we have stored up because we cant watch the ads and cash out… Literally cannot play the game anymore since the game updated…Fix or no? There should be adequate compensation for this.
Very addictive game lots of options and challange.
THIS Game IS AWSOME NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
Great app funny fun and low maintenance Only thing is EVERYTIME our golfers hit the guy picking up balls and goes to the app when the game comes back the screen is like frozen or locked up and we have to reset t the game and close the app Other than that no issues thanks.
The game is fun, big issue right now is whenever we go back to the ads Ive saved for the bonuses the game freezes after the ad and have to close and re-open.
We downloaded this game recently and it frequently freezes our screen where we cannot click on anything forcing us to shut down the app and open again to get it to work. Very frustrating.
We really like this game at the start, but we purchased the ad's boost that eliminated the watching the ad's and then they changed the game that to get the new pro's in the game you had to go to a different event and everything you purchased (ad boost, etc…) doesn't work anymore until the event is over. Also, you can only get up to 20 keys at a time and only 10 will count towards your level ups. We have written the developers twice and they say that's how the game is setup, so if you have a lot of time to sit around play the new events to get the new pro's, then it's fun but when you purchase these things to not have to sit through constantly and you can't use them, then it stinks.
Ads that automatically take you to the app store page. Downright scummy.
Fun game but frequent advertisements hang game when completed requiring restart. Home next update corrects.
As a fairly consistent player, you just have to accept the game for what it is. Ive purchased the ad pass awhile ago, as said before it doesnt transfer to the events. Legitimately makes no sense, definitely isnt about keeping the game competitive as stated in the devs responses. You will never gain the new event characters without paying cash, just know this and accept it.
