Could there really be golf on Mars?
For centuries, philosophers and mathematicians have gazed up at the night sky and wondered:

"Is there Golf On Mars?"

The year is 2866. Mars is 35% terraformed, finally enough to allow the playing of the game of.. Golf!

Golf across an infinite* rocky Martian surface. Discover golfing obstacles that make us Earthlings gasp in awe!

---

*Infinity is impossible to represent on any non-quantum computer. In actuality there are roughly 25,770,000,000 golf holes in this game.

In 2020, NASA will launch the Perseverance rover to search for life and golf on Mars. The journey there will take 200 days,
If you were to play one hole of Golf On Mars every 30 seconds during that journey, you would only be able to complete 0.002% of the game (576000 holes).

If you were a paleolithic hunter-gatherer gazing up at the Red planet one night during your traversal of the ice bridge connecting Russia to Alaska
at the last glacial maximum 24515 years ago and a time traveler brought an iPhone for you and your tribe to ritually play a hole of Golf On Mars every 30 seconds,
it would take until the present day to complete all the holes.

But this is not a realistic simulation.

For example, if the ball is 16 pixels wide on your screen then the typical hole will be 1200 pixels away.
Scaling this to the size of a real ball (1.68 inches), it's as if the hole is only 3.5 yards away!

A realistic 18 hole golf course where the fairways are 3.5 yards away would only require about 1300 square feet of land.
However, gravity on Mars is 38% that of Earth's gravity, so you could hit a ball 7 times farther, or roughly 1400 yards for a good player.
This 18 hole course then needs to be to 64000 square feet. You could cover the entire surface of Mars with 241 billion of these golf courses.

Therefore, you could easily fit all the holes in Golf On Mars on the surface of Mars.

Mars is par 3, so aim to finish in under 77 billion strokes.

It's fun but none of the levels shown in the screenshots I've gotten so far. On level 100 now and around level 90 everything just becomes spikey instead of the round edges. No water so far and no caves. A little disappointed

Sequel to desert golf: essential for every phone. Should be built in.

Great offline game to kill time

Generally I love this game but some holes are (I suspect) not reachable and they just aren't fun - 1894 for me in particular just seemed stupid. I'd rather have a "give up" option to take whatever stroke penalty to avoid the ridiculous 'take tiny shots to get "skip" to come up' dance You also need some instructions, it's not as discoverable as you seem to think it is

Fun and addictive game with one crippling and extremely irritating weakness: impossible holes! Holes underground! Completely inaccessible! So you waste 50 shots getting in and out (if you're lucky: I've waited 40 shots for the skip sign and had to start again).

The game is broken, it displays a complete orange screen, allows me to stroke, but no sound plays when released and you can't see the ball, because the entire screen is just orange.
