Miniputt — Review
Genre: strategy
Get ready to sink those putts and break the bank! I just spent an hour playing Mini-Putt, and I'm hooked. This game is all about strategy and precision, with a dash of luck. You're tasked with navigating a ball through an obstacle course, trying to land it in the hole in as few strokes as possible. Sounds simple, but trust me, it's not. Each level presents a new challenge, with twists and turns that'll keep you on your toes. The core loop is ridiculously fun, and I found myself replaying levels over and over to shave off precious seconds. It's all about finding the right balance between risk and reward – do you take a safe route, or go for broke and try to land a tricky shot? The game's design encourages you to experiment and try new things, which is exactly what makes it so addictive. Controls are smooth and responsive, whether you're playing on keyboard, touch, or controller. Here's a quick tip: use the arrow keys to adjust your aim, and the space bar to release the ball. On mobile, just tap to aim and release to shoot. On controller, use the left stick to aim and the A button to release. As you progress through the levels, you'll unlock new challenges and obstacles. The scoring system is simple – the fewer strokes you take, the higher your score. But it's not just about beating your own high score – you'll also want to compete with friends and try to beat their best times. Quick tips: take your time, and don't be afraid to retry. Experiment with different routes and shots to find the one that works best for you. And if you're playing on desktop, make sure to run the game in full screen mode – it makes a big difference in readability. Verdict: Mini-Putt is a ridiculously fun and addictive game that's perfect for high-score chasers and strategy fans. Give it a try, and see how low you can get your score!
