Putter King For iPad Brings You Mini Golf From Japan [VIDEO]

putter-king

Putter King for iPad was just released yesterday. The game was designed by the Tokyo-based mini-golf company of the same name, with development and final artwork completed by Tasty Poison of South Africa. I gave the game a quick run-through, despite all my past mini-golf experiences.

The game features 24 holes that you can play, with three more holes coming as a future update after Putter King’s hole design contest. I enjoyed the Japan-themed holes, particularly the sumo arena and the conveyor belt sushi course. On the other hand, the Imperial Palace course left me fuming — I don’t really want to talk about that one, it was very traumatic…

Check out our demo video below, or if you’d like to try the game for yourself, you can pick it up in the app store for 99 cents. It’s available in both English and Japanese.
