Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love mini golf but it would be fun to play this online with friends rather than just two people passing around the tablet back and forth to each other.
This app is really cool. Its like the best but the one thing thats off is the coins. The only thing you can do is really just buy the ads off so we think there should be an option to like buy coins and a shop and they add in the store skins for the ball trails and more golfing stuff so yeah thank you.
Ive played this game for a long time, and with the changes, its like playing with a basketball. The ball is so bouncy, and what used to be a hole in one is now the cup sending the ball bouncing away. Why ruin a good thing.
We dont like the fact that some landings are now blocked from view, like #18 on 1st course. So you have to hit an extra ball in order to land in a position to see the hole.
The latest update totally mad this app trash. Graphics and everything else has made this app no fun at all.
After you collect the 500 coins to get no ads, what can you do with the other coins that you collect. What you considered as an ace and what do you consider as a round.
Very addictive, fun to strategize for each course and get more hole in one Id like to see extra credit for under par.
Not a bad game at all. One aspect we like is you only get advertisements at the 9th hole and not after every hole.
Very easy to use play. Very addictive during down times.
To relax or play against a friend. Generous on the courses. Not ridiculously overdone. It is free. Theres also a pyramids course separate but free and its great about to play Tropical Resort course. Just hit more games for these two.
Many people are saying that it can save scores but if you want to save scores just screenshot it. The only other thing is that it needs more definition of the slope this would be easy just add shadows but that doesnt deserve a whole star lost over all it is a fun mostly ad free game that is easy and fun.
The ads are short and far between. It doesnt force you to pay real money to continue like a lot of games do. It could use a little more contrast on the 3 dots and how about 4 dots.
Ok hear us out on this. Most games nowadays are made only for the money. This game has the stuff. This game is made by someone who cares. The creator wants their players to enjoy it. We think this game is amazing. Think about it, whenever you see an ad its for a clickbait game thats only for the money. This game is clearly by someone who cares.
We played it for 12:30hrs12:1/2 its great for 8 years to 80yrs+ all ages multi player or single and Practice.
Really like the different choices of games. Our husband and we compete and it is so much fun. Cant beat him in real golf but we can beat him in mini golf here. He also beats us sometimes too. Fun competition. Also LOVE that theres not a bunch of ads. And all games are free.
In a time where we all need to be staying in place for Covid19, its fun and challenging. Can you beat our 6 under on 18 holes? The challenge is on, a great deal of fun and beats watching daytime tv!! Stay safe everyone.
Very realistic mini-courses and play.
You might get mad, but this game is pretty fun!! More people should know about it.
It is a great old school game. Exactly as advertised.
Great challenging courses. Would be good to change sound for each course.
Great game! Just needs more courses.
Great game, great graphics and super fun.
The only problem is that there is not any friend groups you can make.
Fun to play, cant save scores but who cares, not buying anyone a round at the clubhouse anyway.
We know you do this for money derived from advertising but so many and so long. Shorten them or fewer and get the 5th stat.
Hard to aim dots are too small to see at times. Other than that, its fun to play.
This is a very fun game! Very fun and all but one thing is that you can't save your scores. Even if your so proud of your scores! For example, if you got a hole in one 4 times in a row you will not be able to save it. If you want to save your scores, we recommend taking a screenshot. Some people don't know how to screenshot so they can't save it somewhere other then their mind. If it gets updated to save your scores then we would rate this 5 stars again.
One of the loops in course four we believe doesnt work. The records button doesnt work.
Thanks for the game. Our wife and we enjoy minigolf and liked playing this. A suggestion: could the three dots and the power button change to the color of the ball so it would be easier to understand who's turn it is? Thanks for the fun.
Controls are simple. Good distraction.
Its a good game, just needs some fixing.
The red dots used for direction of shots needs more contrast, especially on the dark green squares on the courses.
Very fun game. A few levels have glitches, one of them wont let you go through the loop which is supposed to be the best part.
Pretty good but just ever so slightly on the totally stupid side. Mini golf is for poop eaters.
For a free game this should be considered by anyone who likes mini golf. Graphics are good but not great. Choice of courses is good. Could use some music also. On the downside, and not only with this version of mini golf as with many others, better shading is needed to better define undulations. Also an ad free version would be nice, although the ads do not detract from this game. Lastly, a way to save your scores. All in all a solid 4 stars and with a little work a 5 star app.
If there were a way to buy the game outright and not have to watch ads, we would easily rate it 5 stars.
Little red aiming dots on a green turf not easy to see would like them white.
Its not a bad game but we wish you could see what side the hole is on so you can aim in the right direction, instead of guessing.
We like this game, but after 6 months, glitches have popped up. We keep getting a 1 stroke penalty for going out of bounds when the ball has not gone out of bounds. And one of the holes now is no longer flat, so the ball rolls all around the hole over and over instead of dropping in. It was fun for the first 5 months.
Everything good………except the power option. Why does it have to continually be moving so fast causing us to guess what power we are hitting the ball.
Having played a few of these, we gotta be tough. None Ive tried approach the look and feel of real mini-golf, and in that regard, the design of the holes here are fairly rudimentary, at the lower end of the real deal. That said, the graphics are good, the physics excellent and by and large, the important part, we had fun playing. And we agree with the suggestions that the power button belongs on the right and more courses are needed.
The game is ok. The devs could take some pointers from other successful mini-golf games. Physics are pretty good. Power is a bit sensitive. A few thoughts: The camera angle options are really bad. Who decided that anyone wants to follow the ball in reverse? Really a poor idea. It should be so the game automatically switches to an overhead view that is stationary so you can see how the ball played. We cant imagine that anyone really wants a balls eye view. Even the limited overhead view is lacking. The power button should be able to be set for either side. The majority of people in the world are right-handed. Really a pain having it on the left. The ball should be able to be positioned left and right prior to the first stroke. One minor aesthetic point: The grass looks like somebody spread cut grass all over. The mini-golf courses dont look like that. It doesnt affect game play, but looks strange.
We used to play this all the time to relax but now the annoying ads make it too stressful. If not for the ads we would give it a 5.
Some two par holes are impossible.
Would not recommend playing if you dont like to have in game sounds. Cant turn off annoying sounds.
The game itself is pretty good and challenging but youre unable to turn off the extremely annoying birds chirping unless you put your phone on vibrate, problem with that is if you forget to put the ringer back on you can miss important calls.
This is actually a great game. We played and played and earned the 500 coins we needed to remove ads and the adds are still happening. It has really killed the fun out of it. If this is how the app works, we dont plan to download any more of their games.
The 18 holes of putt putt is challenging and fun to play.
A little slow paced but overall a fun game and worth the download.
