Golf Star™ Positive Reviews
Could be greatAs other have said the game is really inconsistent. You could shoot 10 shots exactly the same with the same conditions and get 10 different results. The scoring in the match play could use some work as well. If you hit a perfect shot on the green within a yard of the hole then make a birdie. The other player could chip in or make a longer put for the same birdie and get a higher point total to beat you. There should be some consideration for the better first shot. Also if you are level 1 you compete against players that are level 100 which you have no chance against. It would be nice to play similar levels in the match play.
The tournaments are few and far between and to get money and points to level up you really have to wait several days between. I just wish it was easier to earn money to equip better gear. You have to wait for tournaments and it’s hard to keep an interest just playing goodwill matches. Overall a fun game but would be amazing with a few tweaks..Golf 1098538Version: 8.0.6
Great game, feedback providedFirst, I want to say the concept is awesome and I enjoy playing this game when I have time to kill. I have provided more feedback just to spout ideas for improvement!
Positive:
-Amazing concept
-A lot of fun
-Competitive and challenging
-A lot to do already
Feedback:
-The game, as others have mentioned, seems very inconsistent with the result of your swing.
-Opponents in campaign mode are IMPOSSIBLE to beat. Playing the second course, my opponents always shoot 8 under par which seems impossible to beat with low level clubs, bags, and covers.
-Takes way too long to get good gear
-It feels like stats fluctuate too much when changing clubs, bags, and covers out. It would be nice if I could add one club to gaining 5 yards of power and not lose 30% of my control!
-Putting feels inconsistent, but that could be because I am not the best at the game
-Instead of the bar on the bottom, maybe create an option for swiping to swing or having the option to make the bar vertical or horizontal
-The game sporadically has periods of crashing continuously, making it impossible to play
Wishful:
-It would be nice to have more courses, as well as playing options to get more currency/items because the time to get those items seems elongated for pleasure.
-Unlock different swings
-Create an outfit
Thank you for a great game, I look forward to the improvements, and playing in the future!.Cori999Version: 8.2.0
Great game without spending your cash!I really enjoy this game. I saw the comments about no consistency. That person needs to understand that each club and each shot has conditions that will change the outcome of the shot.
This is not the most realistic game but those tend to be a little annoying and less casually playable. This game has a great balance of realism while still being a video game. You cannot change the direction of the ball in the air, which is one of the features I did not like about Tiger Woods back in the day.
There are in app purchases but they don’t really make sense because you can earn the same amount as what you would purchase in a few days. My only suggestion would be if you want to make purchasing easier, make sure that it’s worth it. $10 for 1000 gold? So I can get one outfit? But because the rewards are so good for the daily challenges tournaments and everything else, You really don’t need to make any purchases..Ch4rlieBrownVersion: 7.0.2
Fantastic Golf Game All Around, but...It is probably my favorite golf game on the App Store and I’ve tried them all! love the campaign mode and the way you are able to customize the characters and stats. Beautiful artwork/graphics as well. My ONLY issue (and I don’t know if this is happening to other people) is that EVERY TIME I open the game, additional data needs to be downloaded. It is the same amount every time and takes up to 2 minutes to start up. It may not seem like a lot, but when you are sitting there and waiting for the additional data to download it makes me want to close out the app and start up another game. If this can be fixed, or if this is only happening to me, please let me know! But again, I love the game and would recommend it to anyone who likes golf games on mobile..Gilmore happieVersion: 8.6.0
GlitchyThis game is fun but aggravating. First and foremost, the game can be glitchy, especially on an iOS device. Right in the middle of live match the game can freeze and crash, requiring a fresh restart. If you’re not quick to realize the problem, you can’t restart fast enough to win your live match. Secondly, there are physics engine and coding issues. Shot inconsistency is a problem. Hitting a high shot, to an elevated green, into the wind, the ball should not travel 20 yds farther than under more neutral conditions. The putting guides can sometimes be way off. Adjust your putt to the left, hit it a little soft (which in real life would cause the putt to break more) and the putt misses to the right, more than the original putting guide showed, before the adjustment.
Read all the reviews. The same issues are still prevalent. If you can live with the glitches and inconsistencies…go for it..Jswann2Version: 9.5.4
Enjoyable PlayBeen playing this game for a few years and it continues to entertain me. I agree with others that the physics don't always make sense with ball travel but so be it. I don't agree with those that say you have to spend $. I'm at level 88 and never spent a dime. Granted those who spend money may advance faster but if I got to the top that quick I would be bored! The challenge is all in getting to the top. I do wish I could pull some ultimate gear more often. Tend to just see club covers in ultimate. Only issue as of late is game crashing after powering up things or using transcendence on items. Otherwise I'll play and play and hopefully updates will stay within my iPad 4's availability!! Not sure playing on my phone would be as fun..Knife brushVersion: 6.2.2
Golf StarGreat game fun to play , not complicated. I would like to reset my character and begin the game over. I enjoy the game very much. Playing some practice rounds would be equally more fun. Putting is very difficult a verse angle of the putt would help and better topography would help with the putting. I cannot sign into the hub account, can you assist me. Also the character are do not reflect an older golfer like me , consider older characters. I would like to say I am
unhappy with no response no action on the review please address my concern about creating believable avatars. I also would like to have a different way of controlling the swing as in
Tiger Wood 2012 or Real Golf 2011.
I still would like older avatar for we elder gamers, just to add realism. The tour mode looks great I will know better as I continue to play. On the green I would like different views to read the putts better. Please consider changing the swing modes to make it similar to tiger wods type or the real golf type.
I still would like you to consider adding older avatar to the game and also have a reverse view of the putt when lining up the pittas most golf ears do when putting.

EASILY the BEST Golf game out there..This is by far the best golf game you can get. I’ve been using it for nearly 2 years and am still advancing and still going.
You can earn Gold and Green cash easily by competing in various events, so it is no way a cash grab or an app that forces you to “pay to play.” There is no energy that can run out or anything like that. I will say that purchasing the “VIP” membership (i recommend getting it) will help you Level Up faster, but it isn't necessary.
You can play in multi-player tournaments, join Guilds and challenge other Guilds, play One-On-One matches, and so much more. Like I said, i’ve been playing this for 2 years, spent very little money on it, and still thoroughly enjoy it..BizzmoneybVersion: 5.1.2
Golf StarBeen playing this game for years it is super fun and will occupy your time like no other. Since GolfStar replies to reviews PLEASE fix this... During tournament play, when putting, that ridiculous yellow warning text pops up DIRECTLY over the ball so you can’t see your shot... IT IS INFURIATING!! Why is even there, let alone over the ball?? Also during any other play “even putting” the screen goes through a bunch of crazy camera angles tracking the ball. It is VERY confusing because you can’t see the trajectory of your shot and have no idea what you did or how you could improve... crazy camera angles should be a option you can turn on or off. Good game otherwise.RadsockVersion: 6.2.2
Recent issuesI’ve been playing for about 2 months now and I’ve never encountered any issues until this past week. When I play any game mode on tee off and on the fairway your able to see the path of where the ball will go before taking your shot but as of recently the balls path has disappeared and I can’t see where my shot is aiming and a little white screen appears and goes away quickly on the bottom right corner. I hope this is an issue for many others and not just me. Is this an issue with the game itself or is this something that I can fix myself or will I have to wait for the next update to come out to fix this issue?.GfdfhjifVersion: 9.3.2
Not suitable for live play.Pretty fun app mostly. Many different ways to play and enjoy the game. Some matches are against the computer and others are live, head-to-head against other players around the world.
Problem is the app regularly disconnects from the server in the middle of the match. No biggie when playing against the computer cause the app returns you to the game where you got dumped out.
EXCEEDINGLY FRUSTRATING when you are in a head-to-head game because by the time you’re logged back in you’ve lost the hole and, likely, the match!
Still, there is a lot of fun with all its game challenges and prizes; enough fun that I play nearly every day.
I liken it to a craps table: so many different ways to play and you can partake in one or (if you’ve got the time) in all of them..DangonzzVersion: 9.1.1
Ignore bad reviewsYou can feel free to ignore all the bad reviews this game has - just frustrated people who haven’t figured out this is actually a relatively complex golf game that only seems easy to play.
You have to adjust not only for wind speed, but also angle of lie, angle of landing area, and type of landing area.
Loving this game. I am F2P and you can get enough premium currency within a few weeks to buy the permanent VIP membership. Unlike most of the golf games out there, this one isn’t a barrier to F2P players like me thru timed loot boxes. It also doesn’t have the requirement of most golf games out there to bet your currency to play multiplayer mode. The option is available, but there are lots of other modes and tournaments you can play totally for free to build up your bank, and also daily ad watching rewards that are actually very lucrative.
After having played many of the other mobile golf games, I am so happy to have finally found a fair game for F2P gamers. It makes me want to throw them some money in the future as I am actually having fun..NekofjungVersion: 7.1.4
ReconnectMost of the time there’s an update needed which requires multiple downloads. But once the game is ready there are 10-15 reconnects needed. I’m sure everyone says it’s not my wifi however. I play multiple game apps and never experience this reconnecting with any of them. Before deleting Golf Stars for the 4th time I deleted all my other games and even some of my streaming apps to be sure it wasn’t my phone. Immediately after reinstalling and the 200+ downloads. I received my first and several more reconnect messages following after 10 min into the game. Best golf game I’ve ever played, when I played..Bryanor36Version: 9.4.5
22 days lost 5 years a scamI have played this game for way too long like 4+ years too long... if you don’t pay cash... you don’t win and honestly there’s actually nothing to win.. it’s a never ending game of no winning..
The crazy thing is you don’t win anything ever... ever ever...
The personal reward is no reward, except a extremely slow leveling up process
The leader board is fake
.Sure you can get some clubs, but there is no actual gold there’s actually never a win you could come in second forever but there’s really absolutely not a true victory...
No matter how much you play,
it just doesn’t really matter there’s really no reward playing this game is endless. With their current business model which has changed to generate coins and take more money it has gotten worse I can honestly say I’m deleting this and Apple should investigate the fraud that the game is.. save hours of relentless time thinking there’s a purpose there is not... protect the user Apple.. Don’t spend your money.Joshua GrifflerVersion: 8.7.1
Not bad but not greatThis is by no means a bad golfing game, it’s just nowhere near the best golfing game app. If the mechanics are less realistic (which is this games biggest problem) you would like to at least see realistic characters. It’s just silly how quickly the ball comes to a stop off of the tee. Even if you crush the ball and it lands in the fairway on flat or even slightly declined hill the ball stops like it just hit the bunker. There are games with much more realistic mechanics and physics that also have more realistic looking people. If you’re wanting a golfing game with both then get Golf King, it absolutely blows this game out of the water..Jameson619Version: 8.1.0
Good gameGraphics are great and game is challenging.
Been playing for a long time and have enjoyed it until recently. It now appears to me that if you are not spending your $$ on a regular basis, your game will suffer. It's most obvious in the match challenge games since there are a lot of points awarded subjectively with no rhyme or reason. Also they recently added a must win match challenge in the daily missions so they can have more control of who clears all steps and can get all rewards for that mission. It used to be a great game but it has gone downhill in the last few months. Too bad..BOGEY1705Version: 7.0.3
Will not work after new updateI am just letting you know that since the update it will not go to the main screen, it repeatedly loads and then says no connection. I tried both my Sprint service and my wifi connection still the same problem. Maybe its an error on my side just wanted to let you guys know. Otherwise the game is very fun to play and I hope to get into it soon! My phone is the Iphone XS Max if that helps as well..AZR3N3GAD3Version: 7.1.0
Can't buy packagesThis is a great game and I play it all the time. A few weeks ago I bought a package with hearts and stars. The transaction went through with no problem. But now I'm trying to upgrade and buy a different package and it is telling me I have insufficient funds. I have more than enough money in my account but it still tells me insufficient funds. Can you please fix this??? I specifically put money in for this package and I don't want to lose it!!!

Most Recent UpdateI have written reviews previously and I appreciate that the Golf Star team reads and responds to suggestions. This time my concern centers around the most recent update I downloaded. Ever since that change anytime I attempt to power-up and/or combine equipment the game crashes??? All other features appear to be working fine. Most daily missions involve a power-up or combination so I would like to take advantage of the associated rewards. Any help is appreciated..FreehahahafreeVersion: 5.1.2
My Go ToI’m not a gamer. I play golf about three times a month. I play GolfStar more, way more. It’s not necessary to enjoy to spend more than ... $10 to acquire the skills to become better.
If you want to drive farther than humanly possible, they will glad help you purchase the needed equipment. Did I mention clothing can also be acquired. It’s just like golf in that respect, money makes the player but it’s not necessary to have fun..SanFranStanVersion: 9.1.0
Update gone wrong!I updated this game a couple of days ago. Was enjoying playing the game but after the update, I can not get it to open. I have deleted and reinstalled 3 times. I turned my phone off and restarted about 3 times. Game still does NOTHING!!
Please fix this problem so I can enjoy playing this game again and then I will change my 1 star to 5 stars 😟
Issue resolved. I love the game. The only con I have is takes awhile to load..Text to textVersion: 5.2.1
Watch ads = no rewardBeen playing this game for quite some time, but recently the daily rewards for watching ads seems to not work. AFTER you watch the ad, the game freezes and the only option you have is to close the game. You can try again and it might work, might not. Very frustrating. I’m not the only one seeing this issue.
Might just be me, but with each update, the game gets more glitchy and the ratings go down..Gilley45Version: 9.3.2
Good but needs workLikes - game play, game modes, ways to get stats, ways to improve equipment.
Dislikes - downloads(724mgs EVERY SINGLE TIME I OPEN APP and I open almost daily), selling equipment(should be able to sell more than one at a time), loading(always loading...).
Problem - Golf star national pro, Golf star world pro and Golf star master pro are all milestones I have completed but for some reason they show not completed on the milestone list. Sometimes these milestone notifications show up right when I open the game and say they’ve been obtained but then I go straight into a additional download screen and am never able to accept the milestone.
Question - how do I duff a shot? Lots of people diff shots on the putting greens instead of actually putting. I did it once but can’t remember how. Just think it’s cool and would like to know.
Thanks!.NeilthedealVersion: 5.1.2
Can I get an avatar that looks like me?I love this game and have been playing it for years. I would give five stars but for one reason: I’d like to have an avatar that resembles me. I am a darker shade of skin color than possible on the game and have a bald head. It may seem trivial, but this is specifically why I have never made any in app purchases. I will happily play for free, but why should I give money to a game that doesn’t recognize people who look like me?.BigDaddyShaneVersion: 6.1.0

Immediately times out in multiplayerThe game is GREAT, don’t get me wrong but when it comes to multiplayer for some reason I can tee-off perfectly and so can the other player, but when it comes to my next shot it IMMEDIATELY gives me a stroke/time out penalty like milaseconds into my second shot, the other players never seem to have trouble so I’m not sure what’s going on. Other then that GREAT game but sadly the multiplayer just doesn’t work for me and hasn’t worked at all since I started playing... sad 🥲 please fix this guys.DorrknoubVersion: 9.4.3
Fun Game But GlitchedGreat physics, good graphics and user interface. Lots of good features. The shot type feature is a bonus.
But I can't play Match Challenge. After my first shot it says I ran out of time to do my next shot due to internet connection, before I even got a chance to try to shoot. And my internet never actually disconnected. Then the app restarts..Works on iphone but not ipadVersion: 9.2.0

Golf Star™ Negative Reviews
Disappointing gameI really try to like this game it has some great features. BUT the one huge glaring problem is the total inconsistency on the wind factor and how there is now way to gage a 2 mile an hour wind. I can hit the same exact shot on the exact same hole and one shot will go over the green and the next shot will be short. It drives you nuts as soon as you think you have figured out what effect the wind should have such as in real life on the ball you hit it goes nowhere near where it should. I will copy what someone else said, before you even hit your shot the game has already decided where your ball is going to land. Fix this single problem and it’s a 5 Star game as it plays right now after about 4-6 holes you want to turn it off due to the inconsistency. Update again after several game updates you guys can still not figure the wind out 3 mile an hour wind at my back I hit a full club and come up short of the green. Back out of game go back in play the same hole again with a 3 mile an hour wind in my face hit less then full power on same club hit way over green. Can you see how inconsistent this game is and you want people to spend money on it! You will never get a dime of my money, and anyone who spends money on this game it throwing it away..Hoze928Version: 6.0.1
Latest update ruined the gameI’ve been playing this game for 6 years. Up until the latest version update in January it was really fun. Now they’ve ruined it. The winds can now get up to 7 mph and you have to adjust way off the course to compensate. They offer a “watch” to reduce the winds but it’s effect is minimal. Plus you have to spend tons of stars to power it up. Most items you could previously purchase with earned star you now have to buy with real cash. They force you to play match games or you are set back to a beginner no matter how long you’ve played. My scores went from -13 to -6 because of the wind. People are leaving the game in droves. The game is playable until you hit level 50 which doesn’t take long and then the 6 tees and up to 7 mph winds kick in. It’s all a money grab to try to get you to buy consumables and power the mostly ineffective watch. I understand the company needs to make money but financial reports say they make $70k a day from this game. So it’s purely greed what they’ve done. New player? Don’t bother. It will be fun for about a month and then the 600 yard big hitters and cheats will make you lose constantly and feel like a piece of crap.Pinky114Version: 8.0.5
Stuck with it for 3 yrs,loved it,now unplayable!!!Absolutely loved this game & trust me I have played them all. Now after finally getting to level 109, very close to 110, & money spent you ruined everything. Won’t spend another $ until you remove the hurricane force winds. Not going to spend $ to upgrade a watch to combat the wind! What the heck does a watch have to do with wind control anyway? Not to mention the other changes that took away the things it took so much time, & money, to earn. Please get back to what this game was about, Golfing with people from around the world & keep it fun. Didn’t mind spending a little money once in a while. But until the greed in put on a leash I will spend no more. I’m not the only one who feels this way I know. Most of whom I played with are no longer playing either. So good luck & I’ll be watching & hoping for a change. Because if not I will be deleting soon. I hate it because I REALLY enjoyed this game. I’ll shut up now after this last thought for the developers. “What part of zero( 0 ) do u want ?” Greed will get you every time!.Manicone 54Version: 8.0.3
Believe the negative reviews!!Believe the reviews everyone, every upgrade in the past year has made this game worse and worse. Their sole focus is finding ways to force us to make in-app purchases. So yes, believe the 98% negatives lately, the 2 good ones were probably from developers or employees of com2us, whose sole function is to get in our wallets as opposed to providing an enjoyable and competitive game. That’s even if this review gets posted, this will be my 4th in the past weeks and other guild members have also left negative reviews which also weren’t published. Great job Com2Us, you had a good thing but continue ruin it and show your customers that all you’re concerned about is taking our money. Never mind the thousands of players who’ve dumped you in the past few weeks, and more daily even as I type this. lol Way to go guys! But on the plus side, now I’ll have more time to spend with the grandkids since I’m no longer playing. 😊 😊 😊.Uuphoric1Version: 8.0.0
DO NOT PLAYWasted years on this "video clip" game. Your acquired stats versus your opponents predetermines every shot result. You are in effect simply starting a video clip always assured to end on green edges and other eerie bad breaks so higher stat player wins. This game asks you to play so "others" can have fun. Total waste. Update: just played tournament and used 9 consecutive putting guides and missed EVERY putt! And they want you to BUY these! The game can be ok if you under no circumstance spend money. The only way to correct corruption in programming intent (if-then loops are where you discover the INTENTION of the game) is by playing for free ONLY. They give enough freebies away to have useless combustibles. It hurts with the future potential of the game to spend money. Eventually all corrupt corps cave to the bottom line. Oh and to the gatekeeper with the “sorry for the inconvenience. Please contact GolfStar to help make game better” STICK IT UP YOUR *SS!.Robernest2Version: 6.1.0
Great Graphics, realistic play, perfect for cheatersI’ve been playing this game since it first came out, and I really enjoyed it until recent changes made it so obvious to cheat that the fun and competitiveness is gone. Leagues and seasons are ridiculous when you are constantly facing players who have unfair advantages. Nobody hits the ball 500 yds within 5’ of the pin - so while course play is realistic, player skills are not.
Perhaps having legacy “pro” leagues for cheaters and gamers, and competition and recreational leagues for players interested in realistic game play and competition would bring more players back. Or the option to leave a game where the competitor is obviously gaming you would be good too There’s simply ZERO fun without real competition and skill..Dorkfish VVersion: 9.0.2
Inconsistent gameAs you can already see From my title, this is a very inconsistent game like many people have said before before you hit the ball and the game already knows where it’s going to go, whether you had a terrible shot it turns out to be good or if you had a great shot but it it turns out to be bad. There is not enough choices in the game for what to do! I know that I am not the only person that feels this way but I think that this company has a lot of experience in making games so I think that everybody would love to for you guys to make a phenomenal golf game that has your mind always occupied and never bored! Not only could the person that gets the game have a fun time playing it but you guys can make a lot of money off it to. please consider what I’m saying bye!.UscbrettpVersion: 7.1.0
PossibilitiesI was under the impression that the idea of a computer game was for the player to have fun and enjoy themselves. I understand that the creators need to make money off their game. Having said that I am wondering why they created golf star in which the player [me] loses about 90% of the time. Your computers player hardly ever miss a putt and everytime I get birdie they get eagle or when I get eagle they get an albatross. They also award a Halve the Hole to the computer. Now I dont mind losing but I expect to win once in awhile. Even sometimes I win and they don’t give me the prize. Now if you creators were in my shoes, would you continue to play? If you guys decide to make it more fair or even, I bet you get more customers..PinlonerVersion: 9.4.5
Fun for a few hoursThe graphics and game play is really it’s strong suit. At low levels it is really fun. Let’s be truthful. This is a pay to win game. You have to spend a lot of real money to compete. There are to many boosts to your drive and putt guides etc. that you really must have to play against other players at mid levels. When a mid level (60) can put boosting tee’s and balls down with a power boost drink and drive 450 yard green to beat you in the 1 vs 1 Challenge (which the game puts as a requirement to do your daily missions) it drives you to buy stars.
Then there are all the gambling “lucky” boxes that players buy and buy to get the top equipment and power ups.
But hey you will have fun the first 30 levels..RonC512Version: 7.0.3
So far so goodI like this game and would normally give it a higher rating. I took a couple year break from playing and decided to download again recently.
My issue and why I’m giving it two stars is because the match challenge feature is not working properly. When I start a match challenge I can’t proceed past my first tee shot. After I hit my first tee shot, it gives me a stroke penalty due to timing out. It gives me a stroke penalty after each turn for “timing out” then says the match will restart when I am connected to wi-fi. My internet is fine.
I enjoy the game overall but it’s disappointing I can’t fully enjoy the match challenge feature, hence the two star rating..D'MoVersion: 8.4.0
High winds ruining the gameBeen playing for three years. Spent hundreds. The recent upgrade added high winds. The winds are so bad that you have to aim completely off the course just to hope to land near the fairway. It’s all so golfstar can force you to buy a product that reduces the wind effect. This company does not care about users it wants to make money. Gameplay used to be fun but the winds ruined it. They also changed the way users rank which effects the level of rewards you get. It’s all to force you to buy your way up in level and spend consumables to play a challenge you don’t want to play any way. Don’t waste your time. Golfstar will take your money. And it’s no fun playing with hurricane force winds. Total garbage..Scrucom2usVersion: 8.0.3
Not the same game as beforeSo many glitches, I get disconnected often and when I reload, I am automatically moved to the next hole, given a poor score for previous hole. This affects World Champion ranking and guild battles. The zero wind watch has totally ruined this game, COM is all about money and don’t care about players who have helped contribute and build this game. Their mentality is what have you done for me lately, no matter how much you have spent before. There are much more realistic golf games out there, players consistently shoot -20 to -25 over nine holes, I mean, how realistic is that. The more you spend the bigger the advantage but be ready to spend well over $2000 to get to that level..AsianplayaVersion: 9.1.0
Used to be a nice game...Over the years the programmers did much to improve tis game. However, when they added the ability to eliminate wind with the ‘absolute wind down’ feature, the game became one of extremes, players who once excelled when making strong tee shots and good putts are getting destroyed by course mappers who make a hole in one on nearly every hole. New players have no chance at all.
Some of the game modes(guild battles, customized near pin etc.) are so broken that they are no longer playable for any but the ‘0 watch’ mappers.
Potential new players would be better served by looking for a different game to spend their time and money....Ht1951Version: 8.7.1
They’ve ruined the gameIgnore that the game is free. It’s not. I understand that as a company does have to make a living. But as of the last update, they’ve taken it beyond reasonable with playability and various format changes that have totally made a fun game unidentifiable. And in the process, also created collateral issues that have impacted other things like the guides and trajectories. The last update made sense on the surface of what they revealed. Unfortunately they left a lot out. After playing for 3 years, including paying for several things (which I felt only fair) they’ve taken it too far. Best of luck to the developers as you’ve already lost untold supporters. Today you lost another..BDGthe1stVersion: 8.0.3
Every update something is brokenThis game updates every week always trying to fix something. Every time there is major update, features stop working. After this last update, many many guild players could not play their preferred course because it became inaccessible. I have never seen a game have so many errors after updates. Also, their in-game purchases are a complete rip-off … so expensive for anything worth while ($50-$100). Other good games I have played has much more reasonable pricing ($5-$10). I guess there are many stupid people out there ready to throw their money away..BetterValueVersion: 9.1.0

Keeps on saying failed to open reinstall, then you loose all your data that you have! Very disappointing! Need better results.
Will not let me play as a guest will not even open with out a login. This just started need help. Do love this game!.FruststedVersion: 7.1.4
Wishing servers were maintained?This game is one of my favorite all time games on my iPhone. Been playing it for over 3 years, but recently(as in this week) I have been completely unable to even access it, as it goes to the loading page and completely stops, along with an appearing “script mismatch” error that shows up after 5 minutes. I understand they are working to try and fix the error, and I appreciate the game play I have enjoyed for so long. But this almost feels like I need to find another game to move on to. Hopefully this gets resolved in very short order..TommyBoy34378Version: 6.0.0
Like a nazi hate rallyUnreal for weeks now the chat room has been has been a string of repeated racial slurs. Either the game makers are powerless to stop this or the just don’t care. You can see how low the rating of this game has become and they don’t listen to the feedback. They screwed up the wind, no consistency and no body wants the stupid caddie compass either. Oh and so much fun you work for days to earn a costume only to get a notice you have that costume. 5 times in a row? Really when I have at least 12 outfits available. I will be looking for a different game and deleting this one. SHAME ON YOU FOR LETTING THE HATE SPEECH GO UNCHECKED!.Shame 33445Version: 8.0.6
Beware!Be careful with making any purchases with this app. They have a major issue with “failed purchases”. The fact that one of their main customer service topics is “Failed Purchases” shows that this is a regular thing for them. After having 4 consecutive failed purchases my apple account was charged for all 4 failed purchases. I reached out to HIVE and they basically keep making you resend the same information/screenshots to them. They are not interested in resolving. They want to take your money and keep you running in circles hoping you will disappear. Reported to apple..UCFGerrVersion: 8.4.0
EhhhI just started playing and I don’t like it so far. Putting is the dumbest thing ever. It puts the red line for suggested power, I stop it there maybe a little after the line and my person doesn’t even make it half way there, next put i stop it way past the red line, the ball go’s flying past the whole. The company needs to work on their games. They don’t have many good games that are actually enjoyable to play without being cheated on by the computer.
moral of the story... don’t play this game, there are plenty of other good golf games to download that are way better than this one..Cooper is awesome!!!!!Version: 8.2.0
Too much going on with the HUDThis game looks nice, however it lacks in usability. The controls are not intuitive and difficult to navigate. Narration is not easily cleared off the screen and aligning the shot basically gives you one chance and then you’re stuck taking that shot. Generally it’s a very crowded screen although the graphics are decent. Finger placement is an issue as well and triggering and unwanted action seems to happen way too often. Also the physics don’t seem to be all that realistic. The ball generally does not roll all that far after a tee off..Jeff DeWitteVersion: 6.2.0
Live play problemsI have sent repeated reports on this problem over the last 3 months and all I get back is a 1:1 request which I filled out 2 or 3 times and that their staff has referred to the developers. I am tired of getting disconnected during live play and having to reboot the game.
In fairness the game was enjoyable until this problem surfaced and as I can see that I’m not the only one experiencing this occurrence.
I would say that your development staff is ignoring the problem or are not capable of finding a resolution.
I would recommend that anyone starting to play this game be prudent in spending any money on in app purchases..SiiyapVersion: 7.1.2
Too buggyGood graphics and fun if you can deal with the excessive bugs. There needs to be more quality control and testing before releasing games - this isn’t ready for prime time. Constantly dropping the connection. Plus I bought the “Free Pass” for 600 stars and didn’t get it, at least not that I can find, so now I’m under 100 stars with nothing to show. There’s no real explanation on how the game works, and when it goes through it’s summary after a round you feel like you’re watching a slot machine.
I’m glad I didn’t spend any real money on the game....JohnStrongArtsVersion: 5.3.1
DisappointingEverything with this game could be great. Unfortunately there are way too many flaws that keep this from being a 5 star game. A perfect shot from the rough with a 5wood should not only fly 80yards. A bunker shot with a perfect lye should not be as difficult as a shot that is deep. Then once you get to more advanced course, idea of having to hit around fallen trees on fairway, or the window of ancient ruins to get on a green is dumb. Unfortunately the flaw of the game become way more frustrating than the little enjoyment of this game..MrforjerVersion: 9.4.3
Connection Problems Everytime.The game itself is okay, but the constant problems with the game needing to connect to servers to start is very frustrating. It often crashes at the failed attempts to get the game running. They have even built a message that if you continue to have problems reinstall the game. I have reinstalled and keep getting the problem. You would think they would address that by having the game being able to run without connecting instead of telling you to reinstall.
As an update I ended up deleting the game altogether. Too frustrating..Kaimax18Version: 6.2.2
Ad watching is out of orderLoooong time player, generally a decent game. The ad watching bonuses are a problem. Many times you watch an only to have the game freeze up AFTER the ad is over. Leave the game, come back and you get nothing. I’ve lost hundreds of stars and countless other treasures to this issue. I doubt it’s a scam since not being rewarded makes me less likely to watch additional ads. If you’re considering this game just be aware, these types of problems are not unusal. They eventually get fixed but it can take a loooong time..MF...erVersion: 9.3.1
Not used for while… now will NOT PLAYNot used for a while, downloaded updates and now crashed completely
Another waste of money.Goldeneagle47Version: 9.5.3
Money grabGolf star, like other Com2us gaming applications have changed over the years to a complete grab for money. In addition their responses from customer service just lead to other questions being asked until eventually you give up asking.
They ask for $140 cdn, to purchase stars, the stars for that money wouldn’t get anything significant. You use stars to purchase guides and aids etc and they don’t last long before you need to spend more money.
Everything with the game costs money and can easily lead the $1000s as the game is highly addictive.
Beware!!!!.DavidMcK1690Version: 9.5.1

Glitches like madSomething wrong with this game. When the other players are taking their shot it tells you you didn’t shoot in time and gives you a penalty stroke. Then about 10 seconds late (while other player is still shooting) it tells you that you timed out 3 times and restarts the app completely. Good game if you could actually play it. Developers need to figure this issue out before it’s actually a playable game..NanananananicknaneVersion: 9.1.1
Garbage appDon't get hooked into this money sucking game, they will torture you beyond comprehension.SpockontopVersion: 9.0.2
Cash GrabAfter playing for 8 years all they seem to do is find ways to make people pay for “in product drinks/tools etc.” they fix glitches only to create new glitches elsewhere. I changed my email address and you can’t change that preference under your profile... after giving them tons of info about my player, past invoices with the Apple store etc. they still haven’t resolved the email issue... you’d think the idiots would send an email to the old account and once kicked back would realize it’s a dead account. So after 8 years and wasted $, CON2US(less) can take a flying leap!
FYI, I sent two 28kb screen shots of my invoices from Apple and they said they couldn’t download them because the files are “too big”... must have brilliant IT personel..GotGasKanataVersion: 9.0.1

Needs workI like the game. I have been playing it for many years. However, the recent updates have been trash. They’ve made things complicated, they’ve added very few new courses over time and now, EVERY single time I open the game, I need to “download additional data/information”, even though I did the exact same download the day before (1 out of 151...). Very annoying, not to mention a complete waste of data/space on my device. I’d hate to delete the game and get rid of all of my progress but I’m seriously considering it. Not worth the time spent waiting on updates to load. UPDATE (June 27th 2020)... after the latest “update”, the game won’t even load/open. Complete waste. Fix it please!!.OutOfIdeas12345Version: 8.2.0

Version 8.0.6Since updating to this version the game is slow to load, screenplay is jumpy / jerky and it regularly closes down and kicks you out. Prior to this update it worked fine. It was a 5 star game until now!.Is anyone listening?Version: 8.0.6
Was a good gameI used to really like this game, now it keeps telling me I timed out and kicks me out of matches. I have tried different devices and connections... same result. So sad, I am now going to delete the game and will find another golf game..Mailman2.0Version: 8.0.5
DeterioratingIt used to be a lot more fun but every update has reduced player enjoyment and increased costs. If you’re not ready to spend a lot of money, don’t expect to advance. “Updates” are their way of taking away any improvements you’ve invested in.

Another Dud Golf GameIf you don’t mind waiting 30-40 seconds every time you want to play a game I guess this game would be okay. I just want to play golf not screw around with rewards and upgrades. It’s real stupid to start the game with a driver that won’t hit more than 220 yards. Needs major improvements. WGT is a thousand times better but hard to play on an iPhone..Colin315Version: 6.1.0

Liked it - the whole club growth thing ruined itReally liked it at first. Didn’t at all get the club combination and “transcendence” bs... got to like level 45. Was playing daily. Tried combing clubs, all of a sudden I am back to square one. Went from 350 yard drives to 250 yard drives, no control. Would have played this for a very long time (and spent at least $50 on it in a few weeks) now I’m not going to start over to get new clubs... I can’t even compete in events with the ones I have..SDMB123Version: 6.0.1
