Play Overview
Desert Golfing (2017) is a super-simple sports game about playing golf in an endless desert. You play by aiming your shot with a single arrow to get the ball in (or closer to) the hole. It stands out for offering a challenge so simple that it becomes both moreish and meditative.
You play golf across an endless desert landscape. There is no end and always another hole. Play is simply a matter of setting the direction and length of an arrow to determine the trajectory and velocity of your ball. Then it's onto the next randomly generated hole. There's no score and no way to fail, so you can enjoy it on your own terms.
The result is a game that has become famous for how simple and silly it is. But in this simplicity, it offers something that always feels good to play one more hole.
