Game starts slow. Once you get powerful enough to own towns, it takes too long to do so.
Once you get black samurai(which i stumbled upon rather early...) every other unit just falls over. Once you get to that point the game becomes:
Go to town
click a scroll or 2
win!
I got the first 2 badges. The longest put was PURE luck. The gold on every round was pretty annoying, but you can always abort your first shot over and over until you learn how to get a good opener. After you did this enough you can get the golds.
Also the unlockable hole in one meter is complere BS. On some levels its slightly off, and on others its not even close....
I got platinum on the first round, but I'm done with this broken game.
