Description: Welcome to Cloudlands: VR Minigolf mobile edition! Cloudlands: VR Minigolf is a virtual reality minigolf experience like you’ve never experienced before. Cloudlands uses an intuitive control mapping between the virtual putter and your Samsung GearVR or Oculus Go controller to make swinging feel natural, just like swinging a real putter. Expect real-life golf skills to translate into the virtual world (oh no!). Don’t worry though. It’s minigolf! Everyone can have fun and play.

Review: I put my hand on my heart and tell you that I was shocked just how responsive this game really is with the Gear VR motion controller. Sure, it isn’t anywhere near as good as playing it with the Vive, but just on the Gear VR it’s loads of fun and feels fantastic to play which makes it strangely immersive as well. Sure it’s far from flawless and its basic graphics might put some people off. But playing this with a few friends is where Cloudlands: VR Minigolf really comes into its own. I will say that it doesn’t have a whole lot to offer the single player experience, so do make sure you and a few friends buy it to get the maximum return on the price.
