Our take on Golf Gambit
The trap system adds variety and player interaction, but it also gives up the predictability of traditional mini-golf. Even the shortest route can change when hazards, shortcuts, and moving obstacles affect the course.
What is Golf Gambit?
Golf Gambit is a mini-golf game where players reach each hole using as few shots as possible while dealing with hazards placed on the course.
Traps include lasers, ramps, tornadoes, explosive barrels, moving obstacles, and shortcuts that can alter a round. Multiplayer supports up to 8 players. A traditional mode removes the traps for a more conventional mini-golf format. Early Access includes 20 traps and 3 locations, while the vendor describes plans for more than 40 traps and additional locations at full launch. Players can also adjust game rules and settings to change how rounds play.
