Review: SimGolf

Who here likes golf? Me either. Can't stand it, hate it. But you know what?
I love Sid Meier's "Sim Golf." "Sim Golf" is one of the most engrossing
games I've ever played. With several modes of play and four levels of
difficulty this game could keep you playing for a long time.

In standard mode you start with an alotted amount of cash, purchase some
land, and begin your golf empire. You can pick from different settings such
as tropical and desert. Build your course, add buildings and landmarks,
increase your membership and accumulate the funds necessary to eventually
build a Championship Course. You can also create a golf pro to play,
practice, and compete with on your course.

In championship mode you can play a championship with either your saved pro
or one that has been created for play. You can also play in sandbox mode
which is like standard mode without the cash restraints.

This game is excellent. I highly suggest you go get it. It's worth the
money. The only bad thing about the game? It's highly addictive. Have fun!
