Vertical Golf reimagines the game of golf by tasking players with hitting their ball upward through a series of increasingly difficult platforms. Instead of a flat course, you'll encounter vertical puzzles filled with moving obstacles, wind currents, and treacherous ledges. With simple pull-and-release mechanics, it offers an accessible but deep challenge for anyone looking for a unique twist on the classic sport.

Our Expert Score

78/100

Vertical Golf takes the traditional sport and flips it—literally. By turning golf into a vertical climbing challenge, the developers have created something that feels more like a platformer than a sports simulation. The 'one-more-try' factor is high here, as you carefully aim your shots to land on tiny floating islands high in the sky.

The clean, flat-art aesthetic is very pleasing, and the lack of a strict 'par' system on many levels allows for a more relaxed, exploratory vibe. However, the wind mechanics in later stages can be quite punishing. If you're looking for a fresh take on golf that favors precision and verticality over long-drive fairways, this is a solid pick.

You will usually restart from the last 'checkpoint' platform you successfully landed on, though it will add to your total shot count.

Poor gameplay. Developer should have had some other people try it out.

"All the best games are easy to learn and difficult to master. They should reward the first quarter and the hundredth.” Great concept and mechanic! Vertical Golf is one of those games that you keep going back to because you know you can do better than your last attempt — or so you think.

Insanely addictive

Awesome game, but beware because it is incredibly addicting!!! I picked it up this morning and haven't been able to put it down. Simple concept, easy to play, yet lots of fun and tons of holes. I love it!!
