# Mini Golf 3D vs Fresh Golf

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mini Golf 3D at none against Fresh Golf's 1. Mini Golf 3D also leads on ratings volume (794 vs 6). Fresh Golf's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 9 months). On price, rating, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fresh Golf sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Mini Golf 3D asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Mini Golf 3D against 4.2 for Fresh Golf. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mini Golf 3D has 794 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Mini Golf 3D ships an update every 9 months, Fresh Golf every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on November 2, 2026.
