What’s It About?
To putt in MINI TOUCH GOLF, kids touch the ball, pull back their finger, aim toward the hole -- they can check their aim via a guide line on the screen -- and release. The game doesn't have a tutorial, so kids may need to practice a bit to get the hang of the motion, then it's always the same. There are 36 different holes with different themes -- some of which may be kind of spooky for younger players, including a haunted house level and one with a giant spooky clown. Levels increase in challenge through more obstacles and tighter corners.
Is It Any Good?
Mini Touch Golf is definitely fun to look at with a variety of themes. It's also fun to play -- if you have the patience to master the seemingly simple controls on this 36-hole mini golf app. The "pull back to go forward" opposite motion control, combined with the fact that if you don't touch the screen right next to the ball the viewable area changes, isn't forgiving for new or younger users whose fingers may not be ready for precision of this level for a mini golf game.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
