When it comes to pocket golf games, Everybody's Golf 2 on PSP rules the roost. But why fork out for that when you can have an almost identical golfing experience for £1.19? Let's Golf may be an early iPhone game, but it's still pleasing to look at and runs smoothly - particularly on 3GS.

The game features customisable, super-deformed characters, the usual 'trickle grid' style of putting mechanics and special effects when you nail the perfect shot. It's less realistic than other golf games, but that's probably why it's so good. Well worth a look, if only for quick ten minute bursts of sunshine.

Above: The holes are nice and big, but putting can be tricky
