Summary: A Good Serious Review
Review: This game is very fun. When you first get it I would suggest leaving it on the first night to get a lot of money because each item is obscenely expensive. Also, I recommend the island course.

Review: This game starts out pretty cool with all the different courses you can create. after a while, however, it gets hard to think of new holes, and like all tycoon games, money managing is hard. It's a good challenge, and very addictive.

Summary: Head across the street for something better...
Review: This title came out about the same time Sim Golf appeared. I went with the latter, but always wondered what this game was about. Years later, with the revival version, I decided to find out. Needless to say, I was not impressed.

The main focus of the game is money and how to make it off of the course. That would have been great, if there were pre-made holes you would add on to the course rather than being forced to make half-baked ones. Just drop in a design, starting with a cheap but boring one, and move up to copies of the greater holes in golf, which cost more or require more status to earn. Would have been fine.

The only thing you can do with course construction is lay out fairways, tees, and greens according to a limited set of options. Hazards amount to bunkers and ponds. There is no real way to use the terrain that is present when you start a game, because it won't let you build a fairway over existing terrain features. It will also level out a sculpted terrain at times.

If you can turn a blind eye to this, you are left with a basic business sim. In short, the whole thing about this being a golf business sim is essentially meaningless.

If a remake is ever made, consulting even the most rudementary book on golf course architecture might be a good idea rather than just pushing some idea of what a course is supposed to be like on the player.

Summary: Golf Resort Tycoon, not for laptops!
Review: We tried this program on both a DELL and a COMPAQ laptop. The mouse control was miserable on both computers making course construction very difficult. The game video was extremely poor on the COMPAQ HPA screen and not really good on the DELL TFT screen. The setup video was bright and clear. The instructions are very poor.
