Golf Putt Putt: Mini Golf

89 balls, and the first that change how a hole plays. Later courses now get genuinely harder instead of starting over easy.

Pull back, let go, and watch it roll.

Golf Putt Putt is mini golf the way it should be on a phone: one thumb, no timers, no energy meters, and a course worth reading before you take the shot.

1000 HOLES ACROSS 56 COURSES Fifty-six courses, from Sunny Greens and Frostbite Falls to Castaway Cove and Orbit Nine. No two courses play the same: every one draws its own mix of hole shapes, from a plain green to a doughnut, an hourglass, a spiral keep and a cross. Start with a straight putt and finish with a championship hole that throws water, sand, a windmill and a sloped green at you at once.

WALK THE COURSE Between holes you don't tap a menu - your golfer walks the course map to the next tee, past the holes you've finished and the ones still locked. Every hole you clear fills in a little more of the map.

A REAL PUTTING GAME Drag back from the ball and release. A short guide shows your line and the first bounce, but not the whole path - the rest is you reading the green. Rails bank true, sand kills your roll, water costs you a stroke, and the cup will let a hot ball lip straight back out.

EVERY OBSTACLE YOU REMEMBER Windmills you have to time. Sliding blocks that patrol the cup. Bumpers that fire you across the green. Booster pads, portals that swallow the ball and spit it out somewhere else, dead rails that eat your pace, and sloped greens that pull your ball off line the whole way to the hole.

BEAT PAR, EARN STARS Three stars for under par, two for par, one for finishing. Par isn't guessed - every hole was measured by actually playing it, so beating it means something.

MAKE IT YOURS Eighty-nine ball skins, from a plain white ball to a beach ball, an eight ball, a galaxy, a rainbow and a full set of sports balls. A few of them are not cosmetic at all: special balls that cross water, ignore sand or hold their line on a slope. Earn them with coins or by collecting stars. They're all cosmetic - nobody putts better because they paid.

STUCK? TAKE A MULLIGAN Play a bad shot again instead of losing the hole. And if a hole really has you beaten, you can skip it and come back for the stars later.

No timers. No lives. No waiting. Just the next hole.
