Nick Faldo Plays The Open

Fore! And Nick Faldo Plays The Open swings into action on the Royal St. George's Golf Course for the 114th Open.

Using keyboard or joystick, you control a fully-animated golfer, his club choice, swing strength and direction over 900 fully-scrolling screens of this famous course.

A plan view of the course lets you see the outcome of every shot.

To help plan your next shot, a wider view of the course can be had. Or you can ask your caddy's advice. "Driver," you demand. "Are you sure?" replies the caddy. "Yes," you say. "OK," he relents.

Power and direction of the shot are chosen by an icon-driven command system. The shot is controlled by the joystick - moving it forward and left, for example, will slice the ball to the left.

Wind, weather and deep bunkers all conspire to destroy your chances in the Open.

Nick Faldo Plays The Open is also available for the Commodore 64.
