Ah, those times flicking through the many disks in the disk boxes...what shall I play today? So often those times were filled with playing Zany Golf.

Only 9 holes ? Well, I already fail at hole 2... So for me it's not the best mini golf game... I prefer "Hole-In-One"...

Seems to suffer with frame rate issues. And is quite hard, I never finished it.
But it's quite a comical game and will always give you a smile.

Good, but too short. There's not as much replay value as other minigolf games.

After the novelty value wore off, I realized all courses are interesting and pleasant to look at, but ultimately not a lot of fun to play. Since there's just nine of them, you will either give up in frustration after a short while or you will complete the whole game after a short while. Either way, you will leave disappointed.

Lots of fun. Check it out.

I loved the music--sounded like a calliope. The holes were challenging and even though there were only nine of them, we kept coming back to this game late into the night one summer. That last hole was absolutely dastardly, but not so much that it was impossible.
Wonderful game!

A weird, funny and original game, with a lot of neat touches. Few courses, okay, but every one of 'm is a small piece of art. Check it out!

Good and easy, hehe! I loved real mini-golf and this game was a good "simulator" of it. 8/10

Not much to it, but the course design is very clever and inventive and it does provide a decent challenge. Wears a little thin on your own after a while but it's a good laugh with more players involved.

Very nice minigolf game with some nice and creative courses and very nice graphics for the time. I'll never forget clicking like mad on the hamburger to get it to bounce high enough on the Hamburger Hole.

All right, it's a very good minigolf game, in the sense that the courses are all silly and inventive and stuff (and the music is quite funny too), and I played it a lot. But still, I never understood why so many golf games use this "stretched elastic" interface. It feels so un-clubby. It could very well be a weird snooker game on strange tables, or a marbles game... That's too bad. Why don't they ever make minigolf games that feel at least 1% like "leaderboard" putts, or something ?

Not many games like this on the old Amiga and this totally rocked! I loved playing this! Nice graphics and damn fine gameplay!

One of the first games that I've played on the Amiga. Very entertaining and very original since you can control certain parts of the course in some cases.

No realism? I though that in the USA, all the minigolf courses are like this. A nice game.

Jim, thanks for the warning about not learning anything from this. Because it's called 'Everythign You Wanted To Know About Gold, But No Fun' I expected to become a zero-handicap player from it......
This is great fun to play, although it's a shame there are only nine holes. While it's not the first crazy golf videogame, it's the best I can think of on any system.

The best golf game

Very, very weird, but truly funny nonetheless. A rare example of an original concept, an imaginative game design and a clever execution, all in the same package, even if the loading times were actually a bit annoying. A great effort from Sandcastle, definitely.

Great fun....but how slow was this to load!

My biggest complaint about this game has always been that it only has 9 holes!

A mix between Hole In One (crappy 2D golf game), Steve Davis Snooker (crappy 2D snooker game) & Pinball.
Whilst realism has gone out of the window this is a fun game to play for a few hours, don't expect to learn anything.
