Golf Clash Game Review

Hi there, everyone. Firstly I hope you are all well when you read this post. Welcome to the Golf Clash Game Review. We hope you enjoy it!

I also wanted to let you know that while we are in lockdown or while we’ve been working away at home I have done a little bit of research.

Download on the Google Play Store

I wanted to let you know about a game I recently played Golf Clash which is a fantastic app that I found on the Google Play Store. At Jumpstar Gaming we’re going to be looking at a few more games on the Google Play store soon.

There are so many of them and we really want to just dig deeper into doing more reviews like this. I found that Golf Clash was fantastic. The graphics quality is brilliant.

Golf Clash Opening Graphics

After downloading the game I was able to create an account through Facebook or Google and I used Google and joined the game and was given the option to play one vs one.

After practicing with the computer a few times and I’ve since logged in and played a few holes and found it to be an extremely good game.

Prize Money Description

Playing The Game

Golf Clash pairs you up with computer opponents or with live computer guests for each hole or mini-match. If you win on a hole you win prize money which gets you further along in your golfing journey. What’s also great is that you get to have rematches with these opponents if you want to.

Fee to enter game

Congratulations to Playdemic the creators of this game we’ll be keeping in touch with them and looking at other games that they’ve made I would suggest you try Golf Clash if you’re a golf fan and even if you have kids that play golf or just understand the beginnings of golf. This is a good game to get them thinking about the Fairway and the green and how many shots they’ll need to get to the green and learning about things like Par.

All in all this is a great game. I’m going to give it a 5 Star rating. 

I look forward to hearing from any of you if you have any comments. Please let me know if you want us to review any games that you have in mind.

Watch out for our next review.

Minecraft Review in Creative Mode

Hi there fellow gamer’s, I hope you are all well during these tough times under lockdown.
I’m guessing that a lot of you are cooped up at home and keeping safe where you should be. This week at Jumpstar Gaming Studios we have done a lot of work on Minecraft creative mode.
Leo Playz has put together his own world this week.. not bad for a 6 year old. He decided to create his own world and built a house in it.

Leo's House From the outside


Leo created this world on the Amazon Fire 7 Tablet. It’s amazing to me how the graphics capabilities on some tablets and phones are better than some PC’s. We will get into that point in more detail in some future reviews because I do think it is an important point to cover when it comes to gaming hardware options.
This time Leo’s house was put together mainly with glass which he got from his inventory. Leo explained to me that when comes to creative mode it’s a little easier to be creative as you don’t need to mine for certain materials. They are already in your inventory.

Character Shots

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Here you can see some screen-grabs of his character Obi-Wan Kenobi from different angles. I have also shown different perspectives of the house and screen shots from above taken in creative mode.

Working with the Environment

The beauty of creative mode gives the player the ability to fly and create the most amazing things. In the pictures below Leo has also built a railway track, an extremely high diving board and a nice pool to dive into.

Leo's Diving Board from below

Luckily when you are playing in Minecraft creative mode heights are no problem for anyone doing the diving. Leo built this diving board from emerald blocks in his creative mode inventory.

Leo's Swimming Pool

As you can see below the railway was nicely put together leading from one part of Leo’s world to the other. All of the parts of the railway are found in your inventory in creative mode.

Railway Track

Keep a look our for our next post on Minecraft which will be coming soon.

Jumpstar Gaming will also be starting our new YouTube Channel in the near future and we will let you know when it’s up.
Look out for our awesome competitions in the coming month where we will be doing some great give away’s. 

Chat soon Jumpstar fans. Keep it real and stay safe at home.

Minecraft Noob vs Minecraft Pro

Hello fellow Gamers welcome to the Minecraft Noob vs Minecraft pro series of posts. Today we are going to start a series of reviews on Mastering Minecraft and how to play the game.

With over 112 million active monthly players let’s see what the hype is about and why it is rated the BEST-SELLING VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME.

Minecraft Stevve outside his house

At first glance it has a very old school look and feel, taking you back to the original 8bit style graphics.. yikes I think I just gave away my age (rolling eye balls).

In Minecraft there are 2 playing modes, Creative and Survival.

Creative Mode

In Creative mode you can create to your hearts content and let your imagination run wild.

You can literally create your own worlds.

Survival Mode

In Survival mode you can be just as creative except you are not able to fly and you must focus on staying alive and healthy. This makes the game super exciting and awesome in a different way.

House Foundation
The Foundation of Steve’s House

Choosing a Character

Choose between Steve or Alex or if you have Minecoins you can create your own custom character. Steve is the default character and the star of the game.

What is the object of the game…?

The object is to create and survive. If you want to survive Diamond Armor will help and this means digging for diamonds which will make you both rich and keep you safe.

Walls at Night

Day and night

Build your house in the day and at night when the zombies and mobs come out the fun part is to stay alive. One of the first things you must do in survival mode is to build a house.

Final House
The Finished House

Need some creative ideas of how to build the ultimate survival house or base? Check out our latest creation below.

As you can see we have a house completed which was our goal. We can now be safe at night! Thank goodness. Watch out for our next post on Mastering Minecraft where you can learn more about how to succeed at the game.

All the best and keep on gaming.

What the Gamers Say!

I spoke to Adrian Playz (9) for his opinion.. on working in the city of Bloxburg.

“ So I first I first went to the Pizza Bakery place, but then I thought it was a bit of a hard job. So now I do the fishing job because all you need to do is just stand still and fish. It’s a really it’s a really really easy way to get get money and I think it’s easier that way.”

Oh the joys of Gaming…compared to the real world ..haha!

Take a look at the house below created by Adrian Playz one of our team while using the Jumpstar Gamer account. Scenes like this can be created by any gamer with some imagination! As it is an imagination game that relies on creativity in that way it’s a little like Minecraft.

Jumpstar Gaming Roblox Review#1

Hi there Gamers and welcome to the Jumpstar Gaming Roblox Review#1. This is the first post of many. We’ve taken a very good look at a Roblox and how Roblox is a great gaming system and so much more.

Roblox to started in 1989. It was started as a basic computer programming teaching system and from there has grown and developed into an amazing gaming organisation connecting the world through play.

Roblox is a series of games that allows kids and coders, creators and developers to make their own games and connect the world through gaming. Please look at some of the examples of the screen shots that we have put together. These were taken from some games that my children taught me how to play.

The Roblox Story

The story of Roblox began in 1989 with a simple block. The dev team programmed a 2d simulated physics lab called interactive physics, which later influenced their approach to building the groundwork for Roblox students across the world use the interactive physics to see how two cars would crash or build destructible houses. It was astonishing for the developers to see what these kids and teenagers were designing and needed to replicate that capability on a much larger scale.

The founders began building the core components that would become the basis for the imagination platform Roblox quickly began bringing the world together through the power of play harnessing players and creators of different ages and backgrounds from all around the world connected by shared experiences from China to Brazil to America and Africa the world began to create as one and friendships were built as well as a new form of entertainment.

Roblox world is growing faster than ever before creators are creating new genres deeper narratives and more diverse experiences that are opening entertainment paths into worlds of play never thought possible. Roblox are enabling the creation of more human forms that allow for greater self-expression and unleashing the limits of the imagination to enable anyone to be who they want to be in the game. We’re a platform for a new generation one at a time. Roblox are “The Architects of Play”.

For the Parents

From my point of view Roblox is an amazing platform, highly creative and great fun. If you are a parent, I would advise you monitor your child’s play and which games they are playing and who they are playing with. Make sure that they are only playing with their friends or friends of friends.

All in all, Roblox gets a Five Star Rating from Jumpstar Gaming. Take a look at the Roblox website:
