---------------------------------------------

Drive, hook and draw your way through two stunningly illustrated 18-hole courses using our unique style of game play. Heres a sneak “how-to” peak:

● Visualize your shot towards the cup. Just like the real thing, plan the simplest path that will get you on the green in the fewest number of strokes.
● Touch and hold the ball, and the fun begins! The clouds roll in, the fairway disappears, and then… you take your shot!
● Relying only on your memory and a steady finger, you must move the ball towards the cup while trying to avoid the shot-stopping trees and rocks, and penalty inducing water and sand traps. The hardest part is remembering where they are! Your shot can twist and turn in any way youd like - the laws of physics dont apply!
● Finally, take your finger off the screen, the clouds push back, and you are left to jubilation, or, gut-wrenching heart-ache. It’s that simple!

Heres more!

● Be social! Play up to 4-players at a time on the same device, or use Game Center to go one-on-one against friends and other golfers from around the world.
● Play Par Out Golf over and over again! The game is never the same twice and certainly not as easy as it sounds!
● Unlock new courses and earn badges the better you play!
● Use Game Center to quickly invite others to play. Be on the fairway with friends in seconds!
● Family friendly! Play with your kids. Teach them the game of golf. Or, they may teach YOU a thing or two.
● Earn bragging rights and crush your friends. Watch the Game Center leader-board and track scores from all over the world.
● Uncomplicated. Challenging. Addicting. Social. Just like the real thing!
● Based on the award-winning Par Out Golf: The Links at “Pen”Hurst Board Game. www.paroutgolf.com.

Pros and cons of Par Out Golf app for iPhone and iPad

Par Out Golf app good for

Had to take the time to write up a quick review of this game, a merger between golf and line-draw games. The graphics are very slick and smooth and anyone whos played (and enjoyed) a line-draw game such as flight control will feel right at home with the control. Taking into consideration golf factors such as wind speed/direction and hazards will hopefully ensure this easy to play game will remain difficult to completely master, though time will tell. The best compliment i can give is that i couldnt stop playing. This game deserves to be played, kudos to the devs for thinking outside the box for line-draw genre. Well done.

Original idea, good for all ages, reasonably priced. Makes good use of game center, allows for online head to head multiplayer matches vs strangers AND game center friends. Too many multiplayer games relying on local wi-fi so this is a nice addition. Also includes off line 2, 3 or 4 multiplayer. Looking forward to more courses and the potential to invite up to 3 friends to compete in online matches. A chat function would also be on my wish list. Great job Endless Wave!

Never played the board game version, but this is lots of fun. Its also another universal app that makes me wish I had an iPad. Slight issue with how it awards badges, but hopefully will be fixed soon.

A refreshing take on proven gameplay mechanics. Easy to pick up, hard to master and a lot of fun. Thanks!

Went into this game with no expectations and ended up playing over an hour...

Like the courses. Wish we could replay a hole, instead of going all the way back to the beginning.

Some bad moments

...but I dont understand why all has to turn white before drawing so that you cant see where to draw the ball?!Doesnt make sense to me!

Excellent game that is implemented flawlessly. My only complaint is with the 2d format and multi-directional spinning of the ball physics. A little more ambition and this could have been a terrific simulation. As it is, its still a nice game, albeit a bit repetitive.

Fun game, you get better and better at it all the time! Very Unique to golf "blindfolded"!

This is a great game of golf! Its probably the best video golf game other than the one that comes with the Wii. The cloud cover idea is genius.

Totally unique golf game. I love golf games, but I think this would be just as fun if I didnt like such games. One of the best of the over 100 games I have on the IPad!

This is a really good version for a golf game. The only thing I see is that there is not enough different golf courses. Additional courses would be great.
