There is also an abundance of customisable options before hosting a game such as power-ups and collisions down to the number of shots or time per hole. Speaking of gameplay, Golf With Your Friends comprises of three different game modes – Classic, Hoops or Hockey. The sound effects while generic are more than enough to carry this game.

All of the songs are terrible and take you away from the gameplay so I implore you to do the right thing and turn it off. To add to our woes the audio is equally as terrible with a soundtrack that hints of pumping rock, annoying beats and generic run of the mill backing tracks. At least we can say that, thankfully, the ball model holds up as faithful recreation of its real-life counterpart. While the colours are vivid they can be overbearing and some of the background models are as rough as the Iron Donkey. Visually the game is a bit of a dud in all truthfulness but functional. The selection was recently expanded with a FREE content update in the form of The Deep, a brand new underwater course.

Courses will take you across the globe, from luscious greens to harsh desert wastelands and all the way into out of space – there’s even an Escapists themed course. Golf With Your Friends has nine themed courses to make your way through, each introducing unique elements that can equally help or hinder progress. The aim of the game is simple and unchanged, get the ball around the hole in the least amount of shots possible in order to be victorious. But does this simplistic party title get a hole in one or leave you clambering for the nineteenth hole? Let’s tee off!

Developed and published by the team over at Team17 in conjunction with Backlight Interactive Golf With Your Friends is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Golf With Your Friends is a high action party golf game that will drive you to the brink while donning a massive smile, almost throughout.
