"Play with this amusing and addicting cartoon mini golf game. Become one of the best golfer on this planet! If you are tired of the classical mini golf games with the usual ball and the classic gameplay, try something new! Meet one of the most entertaining birds on the planet. Our flappy friend lives on an abandoned amusement island, where you can find any of the coolest mini golf tracks (courses) on earth. My bird has a huge passion for mini golf but there are no golf clubs (sticks) and balls to play with, he has reinvented the game concept. He blows up his clumsy body until he looks like a ball and uses a slingshot to move towards the hole. After the first shot the game play will change from slingshot modus to arrow modus with a power bar, for a more precise stroke. Advice: Remember that the first hit will be the most difficult, so do not put too much strength in it because it will simply make our fluffy friend, fly out of the track. Don't hit the bird into the sea - it doesn't like to be a subsurfer...

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Facemania at 77% against Bird Mini Golf's 20%. Facemania also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 17 months). Bird Mini Golf's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and in-app purchases (none vs 6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Bird Mini Golf holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Facemania has 157 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Facemania's written reviews are positive against 20% of Bird Mini Golf's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Facemania ships an update every 2 months, Bird Mini Golf every 17 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
