ONLINE GOLF GAME PACKING 'EM IN
Skillground's UTourGolf went Beta live in September and is doing brisk business
With excellent graphics and plenty of realistic head-to-head and tournament action for fun or real money prizes, Skillground's online venture UTourGolf is doing brisk business, it appears, with almost 900 players active on the site when InfoPowa checked it out this week following favourable player reports on Internet message boards.
Skillground launched the game in Beta format back in September 2007 (see previous Online-Casinos.com/InfoPowa report) and announced a new challenge option, handicap play, mini-games and player created tourneys two months later. It's essentially a full-on out-of-the-box multiplayer PC game that can be played for free or for money with the prospect of competing for and winning prizes.
Michael Haines, Managing Director of Skillground owner Groove Games claims the product combines skill with strategy and nerve to create a unique online experience in a popular sport."
"Like real golf, you never play a game exactly the same way. That's what's so appealing about it. The variables are always changing, like weather and wind conditions, pin and tee placements, green speed and the length of the rough" he says.
SkillGround has a proprietary and completely open skill ranking system designed to ensure that players can compete in a fair environment. They can go head-to-head or take part in tiered tournaments, from Rookie to Legend using UTour Golf's automatic skill matching feature. The game launched with three golf courses inspired by major locations around the world and offers multiple game rules including traditional stroke play and Stableford Plus, with further locations planned.
