Coming Soon: Version Nine Hole Golf for Smartphone OS

Event of the week! OmniG Soft, creators of a number of excellent simulators, including the best at the moment aviasimulator MiniDog Fight, released an excellent golf course, which can rightly be called the best on the market. The game hits from the first minutes - hit a stick and ... camera follows the ball before his touchdown, while you are watching is not the standard animation, but the real picture, changing depending on the strength and type of stroke, type of selected clubs, as well as the surface, which was placed kick. The ball falls, bounces off the ground, flies on ... All the most realistic and well developed. So, golf 9-hole course. Putter strikes the ball goes to the so-called launch pad "Tee» (tee) via the "fairway» (fairway) and the equilibrium »(rough) in the hole, located in a zone of" putting green »(putting green). All areas are different type of surface. In addition to "green" you expect the obstacles - water hazard or bunker. Depending on the area you need different clubs for a strike. In Nine Hole Golf, however, the club selected automatically.

The essence of the game is to go through holes in the minimum number of strokes. In contrast to the classic golf course, where to complete the game to go 18 holes, here round consists of playing 9 holes. For each well defined nominal (par), usually well he is from 3 to 5 strokes. According to statistics, only one of thousands of players can meet in the denomination. Nevertheless, I managed it. I'm not inclined to think that I was elected in a golf course (see movie "The Matrix"), rather, the developers made sure to make the game more enjoyable. For every stroke charged one point, in addition, for hitting into the bunker or water, as well as for the ball from the field (out of the bounds), you dobavlyutsya penalty points.Eventually get to subtract from the nominal dialed the number of points. The smaller the better. The interface is convenient, you can see the distance to the hole, the position of your ball, consider the field from different angles, choose a club and hit the touch of a stylus. Through the settings menu can set the animation quality of treatment, turn off the sound, set the speed of the wind. By the way, unlike other games, everything is as close as possible to the real laws of physics. So, depending on the spread, respectively, changing wind direction - in other games, no matter how the vertical, the wind always blows on you. Stunning, realistic animation. Take into account all the way up the lift dust dislodging the ball from sand bunker, clouds rushing overhead, flags fluttering in the wind direction ... This level of detail in the sports games for Pocket PC was not yet.

You can play on three different fields of your choice. Well done players - they are emotional: hitting into the bunker, with annoyance stamp, happy with a good hit and bounce off the excitement, missed in the denomination. Six of them, you can choose to look. Depending on the player also changes the impact force. Have the opportunity to compete with each other on a single device. However, it will have to buy the game - I'm afraid the time provided in the demo, it is unlikely you will both get to the first hole.

NEW: Miniature Pool

Printable Miniature Pool for Pocket PC

Quite in keeping with today's review. Before us - golf. Sorry, billiards. Hm. One second. I think it is fair to say that we have two in one - a mini-golf with billiard balls. Set of tables with a variety of obstacles inherent in golf - hills, sand and water barriers, various types of surfaces and artificial obstacles, varying depending on the match. In game three of them - "Bilyardozavisimost", "Tropicana" and "industry". If the first two are only natural obstacles, the industrial added as electromagnetic fields, pull balls, containers of acid, moving doors, pipes, spewing clouds of steam, which changes the direction of the ball ... To drive the ball into the wells has proven far from challenging and quite fun - in addition to vyschityvaniya trajectory and impact force, as in billiards and golf, it is important to choose the right moment to strike and take into account far more factors.
