Minigolf Mania provides you with several different 18-hole courses to play, chock full of hazards that you might find on a real course—windmills, tunnels and bumpers—along with a whole bunch of hazards you’re unlikely to see in the real world, such as moving force-fields, hot rivers of lava and icy fields. Minigolf Mania includes a tutorial mode that will get you up to speed with all the hazards and bonuses you’ll find on the courses. In addition to novelties like fields of lava or big stretches of ice on some courses, automatic teeter-totters and other strange objects, there are also things that can help you: Transporter beams that will send your ball flying to a different part of the course, for example, while “super stops” bring the ball to a grinding halt no matter how fast its momentum. You can also earn balls with special powers, such as the ability to withstand the heat of lava for a few moments. In addition, you can collect special balls that you can then use when you play the courses—some might bump upward if you click the mouse while they’re in motion, for example; others might be equipped with tire chains, so they roll more predictably on ice.
