Minigolf online game gains popularity as online entertainment

In today’s uncertain climate, it no longer surprising that many people have turned to online gaming to provide some sort of relief.

Even before the start of the coronavirus pandemic, the online gaming industry has been on the rise but now, with more and more people searching for ways to pass time and socialise safely from the comfort of their homes, online gaming has witnessed a huge influx of new gamers.

The accessibility of most online games has transformed most casual players into highly dedicated ones, taking advantage of the time spent in isolation and the convenience provided by these gaming platforms. In fact, many game studios and publishers, alongside video streaming platforms, have taken advantage of this situation by creating more immersive and engaging gaming services, making it easier for first-time gamers to invest more of their newly found time into it.

One of such games that have grown in popularity during the pandemic is Minigolf World. At a time where most professional sports events have been cancelled and access to recreational centres restricted, this game allows users to enjoy a game of golf from the comfort of their home.  

This arcade mini-golf game starts off quite easily and gets challenging as your progress, but the controls are very straightforward for even amateur gamers. All you need to do while playing the game is either click or touch the screen to start the shot process, then pull back the ball to set the shot strength and direction.

There are different strategies that you can employ to progress in this 18-hole game and there are different points associated with different points level. The game saves your progress in your local web browser, so you don’t have to worry about starting all over again if you need to take a nap or spend some time away from your screen.

Now, online games provide an accessible, entertaining and relaxing alternative at a time where many are dealing with a lot of stress due to the effects of the pandemic.
