I learned something about myself this week. I suck at mini-golf. But my three-and-a-half-year-old? She’s apparently the Tiger Woods of the pre-school set. 2K Play’s Carnival Games: MiniGolf takes the standard video golf game and adds in dinosaurs, candy canes and farm animals to create a whimsical and wacky adventure for you and your little putter.
Where does the mad mad mad golfin’ go down? At lands like “Prehistoric Times, Wild West, Amazon Jungle, Pirate's Cove, Fairytale Land, Egyptian Pyramids, and the Haunted Mansion.” During your game play, if you happen to get the hang of it, you can earn coins to trade in for ‘prizes’, like upgrades to your customized avatar, special clubs and unique golf balls.
The game accommodates single player or multiplayer (up to 4 Wii remotes at once) so you can enjoy some lone player action or go for a full on party. But we warned, this ain’t just your regular run of the mill mini-golf. Things fly, come out of nowhere and your competition even has the ability to distract you with their own Wii remote while you’re playing. Yeah, the game can get rough. It’s time for a rematch with my little preschooler, just proving that this game is good for the young and the old…like me.
You can pick up your clubs and hit it here for $29.99.
