Its mini golf, with a twist! Can you get to the end of the course before you run out of shots? Five crazy golf courses containing hills, bunkers, warp fields, tricky switches, water hazards and ice stand between you and Shot Golf glory. How does it work? Putting has never been easier: Touch the screen, drag your finger back to aim and set the power, let go to fire. Each golf course contains nine holes designed to challenge even the toughest golfing pro. The Village course sets you up with simple greens, rolling hills and wooden obstacles standing between your golf ball and the holes. The Breach Trip course throws a good measure of sand into the mix - will the bunkers prevent you from putting to victory? Warp Party brings inter-dimensional travel into your golfing mix. Switch City puts some very real obstacles between your ball and the hole. Only some weird yellow switches will help you clear this course. The Water Alert course features the hardest holes in the game. There are water hazards, icy straights and the most challenging mini golf you'll find in this game. This is crazy golf at its best!
