Update 2.1 minor bug fix
Par 1 Golf is a clever, bite-sized take on the sport that focuses entirely on the 'short game.' By making every hole a Par 1, the game turns golf into a high-stakes puzzle where every single tap matters. It’s an excellent choice for 'waiting-room' gaming where you only have a minute or two to play.
The controls are simple and intuitive—a classic 'pull and release' mechanic that works perfectly for the precision required. The level design is where the game shines, featuring imaginative obstacles that force you to use the environment to bounce your ball into the cup. It’s colorful, charming, and surprisingly challenging. It avoids the bloat of more realistic sims and focuses on the core satisfaction of a perfect shot.
Simple and addictive one-shot gameplay
Hundreds of creative and challenging holes
Vibrant 3D graphics
Global leaderboards for the longest streaks
Sometimes a direct line is impossible. Look at the walls; they are often perfectly angled to let you bounce the ball into the hole. Pay attention to the power meter—too much force and the ball will pop right back out of the cup.
Completing a set of holes without misses unlocks themed courses like 'Island Paradise' or 'Urban Jungle,' each introducing new physics elements like wind or moving platforms.
If you miss the hole, you have to restart the current course or use a continue to keep your streak alive.
I want to play while listening to music, but the app cuts off my music upon opening, and I can't find a settings menu to turn off or turn down sounds, or allow music to play while the app is running. Please advise? Thank you. -William
