"Scratch Golf" is a sports simulation game developed for the Sega Game Gear, providing golf enthusiasts and gamers alike with a portable golfing experience. Released in the early 1990s, the game takes full advantage of the Game Gear's color display to offer rich, vibrant graphics that simulate a variety of golf courses. Players can select from different golfers, each with unique strengths and weaknesses, adding a strategic layer to the game. The gameplay in "Scratch Golf" involves selecting the right clubs, adjusting the power and direction of shots, and reading the greens to make accurate putts, all aiming to complete each course with the lowest number of strokes possible.
One of the significant features of "Scratch Golf" is its accessibility combined with depth in game mechanics, appealing both to casual players and serious golf fans. The game includes several courses, each featuring distinctive layouts with varying levels of difficulty from bunkers, water hazards, and different elevations. The control scheme in "Scratch Golf" is straightforward yet requires skill to master, particularly in managing wind conditions and choosing the optimal strategy for navigating each hole. For its time, it stood out as a portable yet comprehensive golf simulation, predating more advanced 3D graphical games but providing a solid foundation in sports gaming on handheld devices. The game today is remembered fondly by fans of classic Sega Game Gear titles for its challenging gameplay and role in pioneering handheld sports gaming.
