Minigolf Clash

Minigolf Clash reminds us of a pastime where you're not really sure if it's been around long enough to be considered a true pastime. Playing professional golf is not for everyone, and for some, it can be downright dull and frustrating. But then Minigolf came by to make it much more fun and far less intense (though it can still be frustrating under certain circumstances). In this version, you knock a ball around to complete the course and head to the next one. The putter is the club of choice, and it's more about technique and the right touch. The course may be smaller, but it's not a straight shot to the hole, so keep your cool.

About Minigolf Clash

Minigolf games are popular for the same reason that real minigolf is popular: Because it's simple and fun. This game focuses entirely on the minigolf technique and gives you a clear view of the course so you can plan each of your shots and make a clear path to the goal. Just know that you lose points in the game every time you take a shot. Minigolf may be less severe, but you still need to try to travel the shortest distance from the start to the end. If you can do that, you'll end up as a minigolf master.

How to Play

Minigolf Clash is a 2D top-down sports game about playing minigolf and hitting the ball using only the mouse. To hit the ball, hold the Left Mouse Button over it, drag the cursor back to build power, and then release it in the opposite direction. The ball will travel according to the layout of the course. The goal is to get the ball into the hole at the end. The more strokes you take, the less your reward.

The main menu is where you can change different parts of your minigolf experience, like the course and the ball, using the rewards you earn. You can start playing the game and progressing through the courses when you've picked everything. Each course will allow a certain number of strokes to get a gold ranking. As you make more strokes, your ranking will decrease, and you'll earn fewer points. While hitting the ball, you can have it bounce off walls and other surfaces, while patches of things like sand will slow the ball down. Once you sink the ball in the hole, you'll complete the course and can try the next one.

Tips and Tricks

The thing about minigolf is that the ball is much more sensitive to power than you realize, but that might not come through clearly in the first shots. The closer you get to the hole, the more precise you must be to avoid overshooting. The smallest amount of power will still count as a solid tap, so be careful and scan over the course and then plan your route.
