    Good little game funny writing, not a bad sized adventure maybe about 10 hours. If you like simple sports games especially golf go for it.

    This is a gem of a game weither you love golf or not. Gameplay is the best part, the story is pretty entertaining as well. If you love 90's RPGs and 2010's indie games, this game is for you!

    A great little RPG with an interesting stat mechanic when you level up, the golf is reminiscent of Mario Golf for the 3DS. So if you are a fan of those you should definitely check out this game

    This is such a great game, it’s like Hot Shots Golf mixed with an RPG and it also has a great story line. I would recommend this game to anyone young or old, it’s extremely funny and rewarding and I love this type of game. The art style is retro but it’s great looking and uses the switch to its full advantage. This is a must own game if you enjoy arcade golf games or RPG games.

    This game consistent two of best things I enjoy, golf and role-playing games. The game is like a traditional rpg, but the combat is in a form of golfing.

    So much fun. Really an enjoyable game that has something in it for everyone. Dialogue is hilarious, fun rpg elements and task, and a surprisingly deep golf gameplay that is easy to pick up, and very challenging to master. Multiplayer is a blast. Been eyeing this game digital for a while but when best buy got the exclusive hard copy, it was a must buy.

    Charming indie Nintendo Switch RPG

    Golf Story is an excellent title, an indie RPG with very limited knowledge of sports games required. One of the surprise games that totally caught me off guard. I picked up a physical copy since it's published by Limited Run Games, and it's really great to see the partnership between Best Buy and this publisher start to blossom.

    I haven't had a chance to play as much as I would like, but the time I did put in shows that this is another gem that provides a unique experience on nintendo switch. Combining golf and rpg elements is a combination that I didn't think would work, but it seems any amount of work put into an idea can make it a hit.

    Glad I was able to get a physical copy of Golf Story for the Switch. Happened across this by chance. Did not even know Best Buy collaborated with Limited Run Games. Was very happy to have found this out. Will definitely be making future purchases if they do more collaborations with physical copies of games. As for the game. Golf Story is an RPG with Golf. Think Earthbound map layout and similar design with Stardew Valley like story/narrative. A unique game to be sure.

    This is a game that mixes RPG elements and golf to create a refreshing take on the RPG genre. If you have ever played a mario golf game, the gameplay is very similar to that and is very addicting as well. I definitely recommend this game especially if you played Mario Golf for game boy color.

    Classic 2D RPG style golf game. Reminds me of a standard nintento game from the original console in terms of graphics and gameplay. Fun play if you enjoy golf and old school RPG type games.
