Have a burning desire to change the way you play golf? Then here’s a smashing way to lower your handicap. Mixing arcade styling with humorous irreverence, Dangerous Golf’s aim isn’t for the likes of a Par or Birdie – but to cause maximum damage over 100 holes and four rather… unusual locations.
Dangerous Golf is a game for people who yearn for destruction, however shallow.
Dangerous Golf successfully blends puzzle with sports
The game straddles different lines to arrive at a difficult-to-achieve nexus of primal fun.
Dangerous Golf is a bit of a letdown. There may be patches along the way that improve things, but as it stands, the game doesn't do justice to the premise and is ultimately frustrating and disappointing as a result.

It's a real shame that the performance here is subpar, because Dangerous Golf is fantastic fun, whether alone or with friends in the co-op and competitive modes. It has surprising depth and plenty of content; the solo and co-op tours combined provide a total of 197 levels to smash through. The satisfying gameplay is its greatest strength, however, with the short stages making it an ideal game to play when you've got a spare half-hour. Some may struggle with the controls, and its appeal may not last for too long – but it's definitely no bogey.
Dangerous Golf breaks new ground, walls and furniture for golf games, but its novelty doesn't last.
