"Golf in a series of platforming dungeons? As you battle to escape the underworld? (Or Golf Purgatory, which sounds just as bad.) Power-ups and weird obstacles and a never-ending series of neat gimmicks? Lovely pixelart? Cursed to Golf sounds absolutely wonderful." Eurogamer - The games we're looking forward to in 2022
"In Cursed to Golf you take on the role of a Golf Champion, trapped in Golf Purgatory after a lightning strike stops you dead in your tracks. To ascend back to the land of the living, you’ll need to play through 18 dungeon-like holes." Nintendo Life - 33 Indie Games We're Excited About On Switch In 2022
Play as The Cursed Golfer, trapped in Golf Purgatory after a freak accident takes you out as you’re about to take the winning shot of an international tournament! Legend says that playing through the devious courses across Golf Purgatory will get you back to the land of the living and, more importantly, to the trophy you were about to win. Each course is governed by a ghostly Legendary Caddie, who will tutor you in the mystical ways of golf to aid you on your quest for redemption and revival.
Cursed to Golf offers a fresh take on the golfing and roguelike subgenres. Make your way through a hole within the PAR Count or your curse will take you back to the beginning of the course! To add to the challenge, these courses don’t just have bunkers and rough spots but are also chock full of mad obstacles like high powered fans, spikes, TNT boxes, teleporters and a whole load more. It’s all par for the course in this twisted take on the classic game!
Being cursed to play golf forever in the eternity of Golf Purgatory has its benefits, too! Use Birdie-Eye to catch a view of the whole course and see what trials lie ahead. Par count running low? Luckily, gold and silver Shot Idols are peppered throughout the holes, smashing through them with a cinematic flourish will replenish your shots. Ace Cards will turn the odds back in your favour, channeling your otherworldly powers to manipulate the game in incredible ways. Scattershot, U-Turn, Rocketball, Mulligans are just some of 20 cards you have up your sleeve to turn the tide back in your favour!
Every shot counts!

Graphics and presentation and lovely and there is a good game buried in here but there is just soooooooo much junk and button presses between each section where you actually get to play the courses. I ended up quiting in frustration and uninstalling. Even with the settings set to 5x and auto FF transitions it was just too much delay when playing a course. Coupled with the guy that basically gives you war & peace between rounds, which takes forever, even if you're mashing the skip button. Cursed is right but not in the way they intended.
You think this would be silly or wouldnt work but is actually the opposite, it is addictive, the soundtrack and sfx are just top notch, art is amazing too. By the end it gets really, really hard. But with the right pins combinations it gets easier, im close to finish it in my 4th round.
