About Miniature Golf

This is a computer game simulation of a miniature golf course. It attempts to refine your sense of timing and your perceptiveness in judging distance. As in a traditional miniature golf course, a variety of obstacles are placed in your path to the cup. Depending on the game that is selected, the course can be played solo, or a two player competition can be initiated.

Worth knowing

Early catalog cut. In May 1982 a reader asked Electronic Games why Star Ship, Space War and Miniature Golf were missing from Atari's catalog. The answer: "The games you mentioned have, alas, been pruned from the VCS line, along with Surround and Slot Machine. … The result of this videogame gardening is the first group of "collector's item" videogames."

Before you buy

Low risk; no reproductions are documented. Check which label you are looking at. The Atari Miniature Golf cart is common and cheap. Arcade Golf is the Sears Tele-Games release of the same game and costs more, particularly complete, so check that a Sears box and manual are actually included.
