What Makes Forest Golf Planner Stand Out
Somewhere in suburbia is an unspoiled patch of greenery, a little slice of paradise… And starting today, it's your very own golf course!
No experience in golf or business? No problem! It's easy to get started building new fixtures and attracting your first customers.
Rise through the ranks, and you'll be able to expand your course to include new holes. Change the landscape and add unique decorations to make the course your own!
Every year, courses from across the country are ranked from worst to best – can you come out on top?
As time goes on, you'll get approached by teams of golfers looking for a place to hold their next tournament. Do a good job, and they might just stick around and become regular customers!
When it comes to creating something really engaging, challenge is the name of the game. A tricky hole can be just what your golfers need to improve their skills. Really satisfied customers may even sign up for club membership, and who knows what will happen if you fulfill all your members' special requests?
No golf course is complete without its clubhouse. Install gift shops, eateries, and more – you'll be running a large-scale operation before you know it. Create the perfect place for customers to relax after playing a few rounds. Maybe you'll attract new customers and make master golfers of them!
The sun is shining, the grass is green, and the fairway is calling. Get out there and build the course of your dreams. Fore!

Community Insight:
Been a big fan of theirs for years and years. This one is a ton of fun, especially if you are into golf.
Great, cute always Kairo quality gun.
What a great time we had playing this game! Well passed year 20 and Im still redesigning our course and hosting contests.
Great addicting game as most Kairo are! Im a golf fan so it was obvious and not sure if youd like it as much if not but we think so. Can be a bit off on what makes a successful layout but an overall hit.
Fun. When is the next game coming out.
Great game. The controls can be a little clunky but overall worth it.
Kairosoft delivered again! Fun little game where you can build and decorate a gift resort.
Been playing for quite a few days its hard to put down once the game picks up its pace. So well made and charming like all kairosofts games.
Kairosoft has rarely (and by rarely we mean maybe 1 or 2 of their games we have played so far we havent enjoyed enough for at least one playthrough) disappointed and this is another classic. This brings some great rpg elements along with course creation mechanics together and they hit it right down the fairway with this game! 18/10 game.
Such a fun game! Worth the price you pay. Very easy to learn and play through.
Its awesome and fun to change up courses and such. It would be cool to change names on here. Also our stats for how much money we are making is not updating. The shops and customers both say 0. Can you guys go through and fix a few of the small bugs. Will 5 star if it gets fixed.
We replayed this so many times its insane. Super game as always.
Wish the golfers played better or were smarter. They often do not play the holes the correct way, wish makes it less fun designing. It takes away creativity because the golfers are wildly inaccurate or do not play for the fairway.
It can be challenging at times but another very nice game from Kairosoft.
Wow where do we start. If you like 16 bit games then you cant go wrong with kairosoft. All of their games go above and beyond. Smooth gameplay, always something to do and never boring. 5 out of 5! Well done.
Ive played many kario games. All are fun. This was our least favorite though.
Would be cool if feature was added where you had your own player and could actually play course. Other than that, its a great game.
One of our more favorite Kairosoft games in a while because of how creative you can get with the courses, however the system to satisfy golfers was tough to work with. Eventually we just said screw it and started making courses that made us happy, despite the satisfaction ranking for them being low.
As a huge fan is Sushi Spinnery and Grand Prix Story, this game is awesome.
Like most, we are a Kairosoft game fanatic. Some of their games arent quite up our alleywhile others are unbelievably addicting and super fun. This particular one is pretty high up on our list of Kairosoft game favorites. We enjoy building and creating a variety of golf course holes. The decor/themes you unlock are pretty cool, even if youre not super crazy about golf. The freedom of creativity aspect is a HUGE factor in our rating. This game offers a decent amount of that! If you do/or have ever enjoyed working your way through a fun mini-golf course, youll for sure enjoy this. If youre a super big fan of golf, youll definitely enjoy it. If youre both, and a fan of Kairosoft games in generaldont hesitate.
Always love these games, this one is no exception.
This one is in our top five Kairosoft games. Ive played it 3 times. Never stop making high quality games with no pay2win.
This is a great game.a lot of things that makes KS games a blast. Building a course and managing it and everything is just fun over and over.
We love kairosoft games. Hope they keep being creative.
Kairosofts games have all been hitting their A game (pun intended) recently. This ones another classic thats super fun, cute, & addicting, even if youre not into golf irl.
We enjoyed the game. It had a classic kairosoft feel to it and was an enjoyable time killer. Keep up the good work.
Beat it on second try, definitely a lot of fun.
Have always enjoyed kairosoft games, and their sports games in particular. This was a great addition for golf fans.
So addicting. All the best aspects of a freemium game but its not freemium/pay to play at all. You just buy the game (its cheap) and thats it. It loads so easily too and doesnt drain your battery.
Different than their others but just as fun.
Finally something to scratch our Sid Meiers sim golf. Its not exactly the same but by far the closest Ive ever seen. This game is a good time.
With the actual gameplay, we have nothing to complain about. Great graphics, addicting game as usual by Kariosoft. Our only issue is that we used our two save files already but there isnt an option to delete a file. So Im only able to play this game twice through. We want to play this game again without having to uninstall the game.
We absolutely love kairosoft games we have played almost all of them and have them on PS4, Nintendo Switch, and our phone..and hands down this is our new favorite!!!! Ive been playing since 2013 and with each new game they continually get better and better we cant wait to see what comes next.
We really tried, but we could not get into this game. It was so slow, and we were so bored. We love Kairosoft games, but this did not work for us. We really wish you would have speedy mode unlocked from the beginning.
Ive always followed Kairosoft and played many many of their games even from their first English release of Game Dev, but as an avid golf fan and SimGolf fan, this one knocks it out of the park. Replayability, countless hours, extremely customizable, and exploitable in a good way. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who loves sim management games.
Jeez, Kairosoft. We just got to 5 star rank in the game and we just HAD to leave a review. We feel like this was the best simulator you made! If there is another good game coming out, Ill make sure to play it and leave another review! But this game, was Really good.
Im not really into golf but you dont have to be to enjoy this great game. Its as cute and fun as you could hope for. Great gameplay along with the adorable Kairosoft style graphics make this a winner! Its definitely worth getting.
Ive been religiously playing Kairosoft games for over a decade at this point, and some of their games have gotten countless hours of play time over multiple play throughs, while others have only gotten a few hours before we moved on. We can firmly say that this game is the former, and Ive already clocked at least 15 hours in the game, even though we only got it a few days ago. Out of the dozens of Kairosoft games we own, this one is already easily in our top 5, and may possibly crack our top 3. It just feels like it takes all the elements that we love about Kairosoft games and does all of them right, while also adding brand new mechanics, and has such a charm to it. Being able to have full control over the layout of the golf courses that the golfers play on is some of the most freedom Ive experienced in a Kairosoft game, and seeing the players enjoying or struggling with the holes Ive built is endlessly satisfying. The whole game feels like it flows very well, always making us want to add one more thing, host one more contest, adjust our design a bit more, train players, manage points, and before we know it another hour has passed from the point we said Id stop for the day. Only a handful of Kairosoft games have kept us up hours after we should have gone to sleep, but this one has already done it twice in under a week. If you like business building games, golfing, or are just looking for a proper, no ads, no in app purchases, no copy pasted mechanics, full-on real and enjoyable mobile game, you definitely need to pick this one up. Once again Kairosoft has shown that they are the last of a dying breed of proper game developers aiming to make a fun game on mobile that isnt trying to waste your time or extract money from you. This is absolutely a game worth playing, and Kairosoft is a company worth supporting. Easiest 5/5 stars Ive given in a long time.
Its awesome and fun to change up courses and such. It would be cool to change names on here. Also our stats for how much money we are making is not updating. The shops and customers both say 0. Can you guys go through and fix a few of the small bugs. Will 5 star if it gets fixed.
Definitely having more fun than we thought we would have! Its a fun little game but it has some issues, there are a couple times when Ive placed our holes and then gone back and tried to move them but either cant or it screws up and says when theyre 2 tiles apart its a par 4 200+ yards. The Fast setting should also be unlocked much sooner than after 16 years, Ive played quite a bit and it is taking forever to get there.
Iv been waiting for Sid Meiers Sim Golf reboot for a long time thinking it would never happen. This definitely fills that itch. Great game all around just wish you could change elevation. Maybe you can later in the game but regardless this is an excellent effort.
Super fun and relaxing to play. But beware of building massive holes. We dont think it tells you in game, but you dont have to use the massive allotments of land (you start with 3) for only one hole. You can split them up into multiple holes.
Im loving this new kairosoft game. It runs in a similar style as Shiny Ski Story. The pixel graphics are top notch. Very fun! We cant wait for the next one.
Longtime Kairosoft fan, played them all many times. This may be our new personal fav.
