Krazy Golf on you're Gizmondo is the basis of this game with 9 different 3D courses set inside a miniature house ala micro machines.

There's 3 main options that greet on the main menu;

Single player - compete through 3 cups (bronze, silver and gold) each containing the previous 3 courses from each cup, but to complete each cup you must shoot par or under on each hole.

Practice mode - which obviously is just that and will let you practice on any unlocked courses.

Multiplayer mode - which 2-4 players can compete on any unlocked holes on the same Gizmondo.

The graphics are a nice welcome addition to the Gizmondo, for a budget title you would expect nothing amazing, but these show that with a little effort some nice effects can be produced.

The course fly-by is smooth and frame-rate is never altered bar a steaming cup of coffee only slowed by particle steam.

There is few jaggies on some of the objects but nothing as bad as a Playstation 2 game! and certainly doesn't stand out unless you are looking for them, other than that no polygon pop-up or breaking and looks very slick and solid with furniture being shaded nicely, a few textures look blurry close up, but again I'm only nit picking now!

The whole game is presented in a very colourful way that strikes very well as being a Krazy golf game, the same can be said for the select screens, although simple, they are at least colourful and clear.

The music is a bit of letdown compared to other aspects in the game, in what can only be described as a 'jazz cum supermarket remix' maybe with a certain pinball level in Sonic The Hedgehog thrown in for ahem good measure, though luckily in the options menu you have the choice of altering sound levels, I choose to turn it completely off though!

In-game sound effects are few and far between, but the few that there is do the job well enough, the swing o' metre can be a little annoying but again turn it down to half on the volume and it shouldn't be a problem as with the ball hitting effect, as long as its audible then you at least know you have hit it!

To reflect, probably the worst part of the game, but since it's Krazy Golf nothing amazing is needed.

The game itself is surprisingly good fun, but at the same time its annoying and addictive, strange but true, trying to improve your shot count and learning ways to cut corners and even find a shortcut (hole 1, jump over the knife with 90% power;))

Unlocking the silver courses by completing the bronze level is easy enough and shouldn't take longer than a couple of days with most people, but it gets harder with trying to unlock the gold courses, and you're soon find yourself swearing out loud for doing a naff shot!

Playing the game itself is very simple to say the least, aiming your shot with the aid of a gigantic arrow in front of you!  To add power simply hold the button down until your desired amount of power is reached via a metre on the left of the screen, you have upto 12 shots to complete a hold, but after a little practice you should be getting 4-7 shots no problem.

• Addictive
• Nice Graphics

For a budget title I think it's a bargain and I recommended people go out and pick yourself up a copy, even for non golf fans it's basically a puzzle game with you trying to pot a ball into a hole!

It can be frustrating at times, though what game isn't nowadays?! but for under a tenner, the amount of fun from it is pretty good, certainly worth a look at this price.

• Annoying!
• Only 9 Courses
