" strike zone " ) to maintain the planned flight path. A miss this zone results in deviations of the planned strike, thus the " Pangya meeting " in the game essential. There are 15 golf courses of varying difficulty. At the beginning there were 12 golf courses; in Season 3, two and added in a Season 4. Another golf course is currently only playable in Japan, Thailand and Korea. The personal records of all courses add up to the overall course record, which is available usually in a kind of ranking.

Modes

There are different game modes, which differ mainly in between the competing number of players. Thus, individual play against up to four other individuals, or groups against other groups.
