HAL's Hole in One Golf is a golf video game developed and published by HAL Laboratory for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1991.
The game is essentially a standard 18-hole golf video game, which is played from a top-down perspective. Players can compete in stroke play with up to four players, or match play against a friend or the computer, in which case the player is in a competitive match against Hal.[6] Players can enter up to four characters (letters and numbers) for their name. When playing against the computer, the player will play against an opponent that uses metal clubs, which hit farther than the standard wooden clubs. Wind speeds are shown in meters per second. Water hazards notifications appear in big gray letters.
In addition to stroke and match play, players can obtain passwords that allow spectacular shots to be re-enacted as if they were the spectator (eagles, holes in one, and double eagles). Beginners can learn gameplay strategies from watching expert players while they use their hard-earned passwords. Mode 7 effects permits the usage of elevation in certain camera angles.
