Skins Game

Description

A realistic golf game where you play up to 18-holes on one of three authentically recreated courses from Arizona, Illinois, or Florida. Skilled players can use the keypad to store secret codes.

The game had four modes of play. The Tournament mode allowed players to compete against others around the world for cash and prizes when the Midway Tournament Network was operational. The Competitive mode was realistic simulation with control for forward and back spin. The Extreme mode allowed the player to control the ball in air in addition to forward and back spin. The Hole In One contest allowed you to control the ball in the air and apply forward or back spin. You had three chances to get a hole in one to move to the next hole. All four modes include power ups such as Mulligans, Power Shots, Perfect Power Shots, Anti-Hazard Shots, and Grenade golf balls that would explode.
