It follows the story of a ninja that for whatever reason has to play golf while being constantly attacked by the environment. You putt your ball and then have to beat the shit out of the enemies with your fists and ninja stars to get to your ball and putt it again, then you gotta fight a Zylon the Dragon at the end of each course. Courses are made up of either rolling hills, desert, ocean, or forest. The dragon will continue to get faster and faster until you can't hit him anymore, basically causing the game to be unbeatable.

You can eat carrots that grow in the ground too, which raise your eyesight stat making the games visuals more HD and your health bar go up. Your Dovahkinn Rank increases with each dragon you kill, allowing you to use more magic and heal while running.
