75/100

Speedy Golf is a delightful throwback to the 'one-button' arcade sports era. It takes the complexities of golf and boils them down to a simple, three-tap mechanic that is remarkably easy to pick up but difficult to master. The inclusion of two full 18-hole courses provides a surprising amount of content for such a streamlined game.

The game's charm lies in its speed and accessibility. With 19 different avatars and a helpful caddy giving advice, it feels like a complete package rather than just a tech demo. The recent updates have improved the rendering and frame rate significantly, making the experience feel modern despite its classic roots. It’s a great 'coffee break' game that works just as well on an Apple TV as it does on an iPhone, offering pure, uncomplicated sporting fun.

Dinsun Review

Dinsun here. I don't mind a 'speed' twist on a classic sport, but Speedy Golf feels like it was put together in a weekend. The physics are 'bouncy' in a way that feels more like luck than skill, and the interface is dated. If you're 40 like me, you remember when arcade games had soul; this feels like a generic template. It’s functional, sure, but there are dozens of better golf titles on the App Store that offer better physics and more content for the same effort. Pass on this one unless you are absolutely desperate for a 30-second distraction.
