Description

"Awesome Golf" is a sports simulation video game released for the Atari Lynx handheld console. Developed by Hand Made Software and published by Atari Corporation in 1991, this game offers golf enthusiasts an engaging experience with its detailed courses and varied gameplay options. Players can select from three different 18-hole courses: British, American, and Japanese, each offering unique challenges and environments that mimic the typical features associated with golf courses from these regions. With a top-down perspective, the game allows players to choose their clubs, adjust their swings, and compete against the game’s AI or against another player using the Lynx's ComLynx system, which provides a competitive multiplayer experience.

"Awesome Golf" incorporates various weather conditions and wind speeds that affect gameplay, requiring players to adapt their strategies. The game is also notable for its use of a power meter for determining the strength of shots, a common feature in golf video games but well-implemented here to suit the handheld format. Players can practice their swings or play a full round of golf, providing both casual and intensive gameplay options. Graphically, the game was praised for its detailed and clear representation of golf courses on the small screen of the Lynx. The game also includes a battery-backed feature to save progress, which was a significant technical achievement at the time for a handheld gaming system. Overall, "Awesome Golf" is admired for bringing a realistic and enjoyable golfing experience to the Atari Lynx, adding a valuable sports title to the platform's library.
