Walkabout Mini Golf VR Free Download Unfitgirl Now, more than ever is the time for games more grounded in reality to come to VR, and Walkabout Mini Golf drops you into a setting that is incredibly immersive and believable, despite the low-poly aesthetic. Feeling like you could find this course somewhere in the real world only makes experiencing it from the comfort and safety of your own home so much better. If you’ve enjoyed mini-golf before, you’ll enjoy it now too. Being able to play solo, challenge other online users, or invite up to five friends to play against, ensures Walkabout Mini Golf caters to all preferences. In this regard, it is notably different from other golf titles already available on the Quest – Pro Putt allows up to two players, Cloudlands 2 allows up to four. Additionally, the translation of virtual golf clubs to the touch controllers works really well and easily accommodates all players, with left-handed or right-handed options, as well as the shaft length adjusting to your hand’s proximity to the virtual ground. Throughout the game, any relevant information is displayed on your hand, and both menus and golf club handling can all be done using the one controller. Unlike real-world golf, teleportation is the only method of movement. The game can automatically reposition you to specific locations depending on the placement of the ball and whose turn it is. However, as with regular golf, playing seated isn’t easy due to the ball being directly at your feet upon teleporting for your turn. Players who prefer playing while seated will need to manually position themselves for every stroke and may struggle more when aiming their shots. Carefully aiming each stroke is crucial in mini-golf, and especially on these courses. Unfitgirl.COM SEXY GAMES

As well as four intricately constructed 18-hole courses, each course has a challenging night mode. These nighttime variants provide even more complex and unforgiving layouts. Developer Mighty Coconut makes the most of realistic physics to challenge players, but you will also be able to utilise those physics to find shortcuts through some designs if you have the skill. The best aspect of this Walkabout Mini Golf is that it really makes you believe that the courses you’re playing in could be digital recreations of real top-notch mini-golf courses. Their angular and cartoony style may not immerse you as much as other games like Real VR Fishing, but it keeps your attention on what’s important while maintaining a feeling of realism through quality lighting and well-layered sound design. Each course has its own theme and accompanying lighting, including lanterns, tiki torches and even varied sunlight depending on the weather or time of day. Appropriate use of shadows and reflections adds depth to the settings, making them more convincing despite their minimalistic appearance. Moreover, depending on the location of the course, environmental sound effects add yet another layer of immersion. This is done through elements such as crashing waves, water droplets, the crackle of fires and even sounds from cicadas, birds, and other animals. The ambience is just one aspect of the sound design though, with the interactions between your golf ball, golf club and various obstacles all registering like they would in real life. Sadly, one aspect that doesn’t translate well to VR is the front-heavy nature of the headset. With the vast majority of the gameplay spent leaning forward and looking down, the added weight of the Quest strains your neck muscles faster than it would in real life, or even in other games. If you’re a long-time golfer, this probably won’t affect you as much. Still, speaking as a novice, it was noticeable after every long session.

Walkabout Mini Golf also does little to describe the terms or rules of mini-golf, so I found myself looking up some words, despite the straightforward nature of the gameplay. Similarly, there is no designated tutorial, but the game does provide helpful notes on the controls and gameplay when going through the single-player mode. In regards to these popup notes and hints, the developer thought it best to keep all notifications centred in your field of view, most likely for the sake of clarity. Thankfully, once you’ve understood the basics, you can turn these popups off with a toggle on the scorecard. Although, there are still some popups that can’t be removed, and can get quite frustrating when the text box is blocking your shot. Furthermore, the scorecard that tracks your strokes doesn’t actively update the tally while opened and can’t be manually refreshed once the round ends. Unfortunately, no record of your scores in previous games is kept. This means that there is no way to check who won which game or to see if you’ve improved compared to previous attempts. Walkabout Mini Golf has been available on the Quest for some time now, with the game initially releasing back in 2020. With that in mind, you’re probably reading this and wondering why we’ve worked on a review for the game in 2022. Well, whilst Walkabout Mini Golf was an impressive game when it initially released, it has since seen countless additions and improvements that has elevated it to ‘must own’ status on the Quest. Whether you’re a fan of mini golf or not, this is one game you NEED to play – especially since most of the new content has come via free updates. I don’t really feel like I need to go through the premise of mini golf here, because let’s be honest: everybody knows how to play golf. Just In Time Incorporated

What I will say though is that Walkabout Mini Golf offers ten 18-hole courses (two of which are available as paid DLC) spread across multiple vibrant environments, a rich selection of different golf balls and putters to unlock, and multiplayer support for up to five players to compete in epic showdowns. The courses are some of the best that I’ve played in any mini golf game, with each locale bringing with it a creative selection of holes that will push your skills in a variety of ways. Some are straight forward and just require you to bounce the ball accurately between corners, whilst others are more creative and might see you attempting to bounce the ball off a rock across a river, sending it up a massive hill where you need to get the PERFECT amount of power not to have it surge back down, blasting it into the heart of a cowboy cut-out for a perfect shot, hitting it down a pipe in order to get the best chance at landing a hole in one, or even blasting it from atop a cliff onto the green in a ‘pitch and putt’ fashion. Of course, there are also plenty of obstacles to attempt to avoid hitting as you line up your shots… it wouldn’t be mini golf without those, right? That’s just a few examples of what to expect too, with all sorts of different scenarios to face as you tackle some of the game’s more complex but imaginative holes. Whilst the creativity of the holes you play across is great, each course also stands out thanks to their impressive visuals. Don’t get me wrong, Walkabout Mini Golf adopts a simple visual style where it clearly isn’t striving for realism, but the sheer amount of vibrancy and personality found across each course helps make them stand out. Whilst there was one course that I didn’t quite appreciate as much as the others (I’m talking about you, Arizona Modern), places such as the windmill-filled Quixote Valley, the soothing Cherry Blossom, the buccaneering Tourist Trap.

Or the eerie Original Gothic all looked wonderful. It feels all the more impressive seeing them in virtual reality, with the sense of scale of the courses making you feel like you’re right *there* in the midst of these wonderful lands. Playing golf feels great in the game, with the physics of your hits and the ball feeling both realistic and accessible. It doesn’t feel like it holds your hand too much to make each hole easy to land, but at the same time you’ll find yourself pulling off impressive long putts that you might not have been able to hit so accurately in real-life. I have suffered a few unusual wayward moments where the ball bounced off an object unnaturally, but for the most part everything is accurate and ensures that playing golf itself is satisfying. Believe me, there’s nothing more rewarding than nailing a hole in one, especially on one of the more difficult holes that really tests your skills. There’s more to the game than just PLAYING golf though, with plenty for players to unlock along the way. There are a ton of lost balls to be found, for example, with each course having eighteen to find (one for each hole). The lost balls themselves are a bit of a mixed bag, with some of the more exquisite and flashy designs joined by some plain and simple colours, but it’s certainly addictive to try and find them all. Each course also has a hard mode that players can unlock, which doesn’t only change up the course aesthetically (it typically takes place at night though some courses differ) but also genuinely makes them significantly more difficult. I was feeling pretty cocky after getting a -14 score in Seagull Stacks on my first attempt, but getting a +12 when playing it on hard mode certainly humbled me. These courses never feel unfair though – they just live up to their ‘hard’ name.  Floppy Knights Switch NSP

It’s also possible to unlock new putters on these hard courses, but not by playing golf. Instead, you’ll find a series of clues that’ll lead you to different spots across each course, with a mixture of written and visual clues offered until you reach the end and unlock a unique new putter. These were some of my FAVOURITE things to do across the whole game, with each treasure hunt carefully and thoughtfully designed to get your brain in gear and send you travelling across the entirety of each course. They’re really fun, especially when completed in multiplayer with friends, whilst the weird yet wonderful mixture of putters they reward you with add more personality to the game. There is both smooth and teleportation-based locomotion so the game suits both newbies and veterans to virtual reality, whilst players are also able to grow themselves to a massive size and look over the whole course as the action takes place (I might have made that sound weird, but it works really well in-game). A new update was also released that allows players to fly around each course whilst playing, which also sounds unconventional but is a wonderful way to scout out ahead of you, find lost balls, or simply watch your friends take their shots. One of the biggest new updates that has hit the game recently is the avatar system, which allows players to create their own little character to play golf with. It’s pretty robust too, with plenty of fun and silly ways to change up your appearance – my avatar surprisingly looks a lot like me, big eyebrows and all, albeit with a cool Viking helmet. It lends itself well to the multiplayer mode of Walkabout Mini Golf, which really is the best way to experience the game.

Extremely accurate physics feel just like the real thing.

Whilst it’s possible to play single player or in quick matches with random players, playing with up to four other friends in a private match is absolutely brilliant. We’ve got a small group together and put a ton of hours into the game already, and we’ve been having a blast thanks to the game’s perfect blend of competitive and social play. Whether you’re roasting each other for a bad shot, complimenting a good shot, trying to distract each other by shouting random noises (we’re a childing bunch), or even working together to find some lost balls, Walkabout Mini Golf is simply one of the best multiplayer experiences that I’ve had in virtual reality.  The cherry on top is the fact that it’s such good value for money. Whilst I try not to focus on the cost of games too much whilst reviewing, the £10.99 cost for the base eight courses (in normal and hard varieties), all of the lost balls, and the treasure hunts for new putters feels like an absolute bargain. The Shangri-La and Gardens of Babylon DLC courses are only £2.29 each too, so you won’t feel like you’re breaking the bank to get them (and they also bring with them two varieties as well as lost balls and treasure hunts). You’re getting so much bang for your buck here, with the replayability offered in multiplayer or simply trying to best your scores almost endless. It’s pretty difficult to come up with any real flaws for the game that stood out, with pretty much everything about Walkabout Mini Golf feeling great in-game. There were some of the aforementioned physics issues when hitting some objects in specific ways and I wasn’t a fan of one of the courses, but otherwise there isn’t a whole lot to complain about. If I was going to really nit-pick you could argue that some of the holes go on a bit longer than they need to with little skill needed from the player, but that’s part of mini golf (and where those risky big hits come into play). I just really, really, REALLY love playing the game.

Walkabout Mini Golf takes everything you love about the real-life game and makes it better. Putting is easy and natural, the physics are completely realistic, and a wide variety of courses provide the perfect challenge for hardcore golfers, and casual players alike. Each 18-hole course is carefully crafted to replicate the feeling of classic mini golf in a larger-than-life location. Interconnected holes encourage you to explore the entire course, search for lost balls and invent your own trick shots using anything and everything in the environment. Once you master a course, you’re only halfway there! Night Mode isn’t just cosmetic, every hole has been modified, and sometimes completely redesigned to provide an entirely new course. In the redesigned courses, there will be even harder challenges, new collectibles, and a completely different aesthetic than the regular courses.It’s better with friends! Full crossplay lets up to 8 players join a private room with voice chat no matter what platform they’re playing on. Join our Discord for regular tournaments, or host your own by simply entering the same room name as anyone you want to play with! Gameplay is as straightforward as you’d expect: swing the putter and get the ball in the hole. What you might not expect is how deep this simplicity goes due to the the excellent level design. Aside from the charming “theme park” visuals, each hole on every course I’ve played so far has something to it to make you think a little differently, and there are almost always multiple approaches to each hole. Do I angle it over the curving slope, try a straight shot through the rocks, or risk it all bouncing the ball off the course entirely to bypass a tricky section? Guessing the “intended” route through each hole is always an interesting thought experiment.

Or if you don’t feel like thinking too hard you can always go straight up the middle and hope for the best. (Sometimes it pays off.) Of special note is the effortless multiplayer integration. No long waits in lobbies, no tiresome searches, no matchmaking queues. Just make up a room name, tell your friends, press the button, and boom, you’re together. I enjoyed this solo for a bit but as in many games it really shines in multiplayer with friends. Whoever scored best on the previous hole has to go first on the current hole, so you can analyze their strategy before your turn. Or if you end up going first you can try a tricky shot, discuss ideas, and show your friends how it’s done … or lure them into making mistakes. It’s all great fun. Development is currently active and little improvements are still being added, such as an optional QOL feature in a recent update to save you from unintentional shots (if you’re not squeezing the controller, you can’t slip and tap your ball by accident). Also more DLC levels are under development right now. We can hope for a lot more creative content down the road. I love being in these lovingly designed courses. The game is superbly designed all around too… so easy and intuitive to play, so many nice little feats like a watch on your wrist, that also tells you the par of the course and whatnot. Couldn’t recommend more and very reasonably priced as well (I’d call it cheap even… especially for VR)! Plus if you don’t wanna spring for the extra courses (which you should do though, because they’re bloody gorgeous and also reasonably priced!), you can still play along on them with someone who did (though you can’t collect golfballs on them then, which is a thing you do, because the game is full of nice little things like that).
