Publisher's description of 3D Mini Golf

From Idigicon:

Grab your putter as you take on the weirdest and wackiest golf courses you've ever seen. Ramps, jumps, and a huge variety of obstacles stand between you hitting a birdie or par over a number of worldwide courses. In World Championship Mode, complete 180 holes--and win--to become the world champion. In Single Course, play up to 18 holes you create yourself in the editor. In Random Hole, practice without having to select a particular hole; the game will select from among the custom courses.

Editor's review of 3D Mini Golf

• ""

This mini-golf simulator isn't necessarily intuitive to play, but it has its pluses. If you're feeling competitve, 3D Mini Golf lets you play in tournaments with 19 other computerized players, but you also can practice by playing a single course or random holes. At first, we couldn't figure out exactly how to increase the power of our shot, as doing so requires some mouse manipulation. Also, since this game lacks built-in help files, we had to go to its Program Files folder to figure it all out. The 3D graphics seem run-of-the-mill, though the bizarre, large-headed cartoon players add an element of zaniness. The game's feature set is pretty decent; the most notable customization option is a level editor that lets you design your own holes. Unfortunately, you cannot reconfigure the controls to find an easier arrangement. Some users may find the three-use trial a bit short as well. Still, if you're a fan of mini-golf games, it won't hurt you to try this one.

  "not bad"

  by skizz on May 16, 2006

  Pros: graphics were alright. concept was good.

  Cons: gameplay was choppy, courses were not designed for making a shot within par. some shots the ball can't be seen to line up with hole.

  "BEWARE - Has spyware (Grokster)!"

  by brandenmisc on July 19, 2006

  Pros: Good graphics

  Cons: It has grokster (P2P) spyware that will need cleaning if you install this product. A bit of a surprise that CNET allows this kind of software to make it up here for download. Would advise against this download.

  "It was boring,and the video quality transcends disappointment."

  by masterofpuppets on March 29, 2005

  Cons: I don't recommend this product because it just plain and simply sucks.The gameplay its-self was boring,and in most courses you can't even see the hole! I strongly recommend you find something better(which is very easy to do).

  "Head is an obstacle"

  by minimax69 on October 24, 2007

  Pros: good course designs, they make you think a bit(break out the protractor)

  Cons: golfers heads are incredibly large, which would be fine if you could see what you are doing which you can't a third of the time. over par views, sometimes it's impossible to see where you are shooting. maybe that's part of the game. dunno. also, skimpy options menu. all in all, would be a good FREE game, but I can't see spending more than a couple bucks on it.
