Pros
Pro Two single player modes
There are two available single player modes in game that allow for the player to practice or just play on their own. The first mode is classic mode, which has a constantly ticking down timer. The second is arcade mode where the difficult changes more gradually and has lives instead of a timer.
Pro Simple, reaction-based gameplay
The gameplay consists of finding cubes of a specific color and tapping on them as fast as possible to make them disappear before all cubes change color and the process has to be repeated until all cubes disappear or the opponent wins.
Pro Versus local 2 player multiplayer mode
Omnicron has a local versus mode where two players face off on the same device trying to clear the screen.
Pro No menu
Desert Golfing is unique in that there is no menu to speak of, all there is, is one course after another.
Pro Each course is procedurally generated
Guaranteeing that the game will never get old, Desert Golfing is procedurally generated, meaning every single course is a new random experience.
Cons
Con Classic mode results in eventual loss
No matter how classic mode is played, the outcome will always be the same due to the fact that the increasing difficulty results in loss of time on a counter that is always ticking down.
Con Not much content
Omnicron is a basic game with only one play mode.
Con May start repeating some aspects after 3000 holes
Being that the game is so minimal there is most likely only so many variations that can be randomized before some particulars start to get repeated. Supposedly this may happen around the 3,000 holes mark.
