Disk Golf Masters is developed by Spinoff Games and published by Bonus Stage Publishing. However, the game was actually tossed my way by Bram of Gametaste, so thank everyone involved in getting me a copy of this one.
Full disclosure, one many of you will have noticed, I don’t cover a lot of sports games. It isn’t that I don’t like sports; I have played most major sports on a team at some level, except hockey. I was even a professional wrestler for a while. So when Bram offered me Disk Golf Masters I said sure, I will take the easiest sport ever of throwing a frisbee.
So I played the tutorial and discovered that it isn’t easy to throw a frisbee in a video game, grabbed my daughters and ran outside to prove this game was lying to me and discovered that despite that at the age of 41 still having the ability to throw an 70mph knuckball pretty accuratly, I in fact can not throw a frisbee to a small chil across the street.
I still managed to throw 2 under par in my first round. I unlocked a few things and went back for round two with newfound confidence. This was very misplaced, as my second round went much worse. While you can’t really bounce your disk off other people, you can hit it off trees, or toss it off a cliff. Don’t worry the game won’t make you throw it from the bottom of the cliff.
Round 3 got a bit better, as with anything practice does make perfect, and the game gives you plenty of reason to keep playing. There is plenty to unlock, and with multiplayer, it is a great game to relax with friends and just have fun. Much like golf, you can play it anyway you want. Sitting in discord having some beers on a rainy day cracking jokes would be my prefered way to enjoy this one, but I can definetly see this being the kind of game the competitive scene would love. One last thing to note: the game does tell you to play with a controller, and my xbox series controller worked flawlessly. If you like sports games, this one is hard to beat for $25. It is a 9/10 experience, and when it leaves early access is sure to be even better. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
