Golf Tactics

You just want to play a quiet round. There's a goose on the fairway.

Golf Tactics is a turn-based puzzle on a small golf hole. Every pest shows its next move before you swing. Land your ball next to a goose and it scoots one tile away. A dog does the opposite and chases the ball. Herd them off the edge or into the pond. Hitting one directly works better, but etiquette costs you a penalty stroke, and the Committee will write you a letter about it.

No luck and no physics. Every shot lands exactly where the preview says, so each hole is a small puzzle with a best line, and par tells you how close you came.

• 45 short holes: an 18-hole driving range that teaches one idea at a time, then three 9-hole courses
• Play one, two or three golfers at once
• Holes take 15 to 60 seconds; the hard ones take a few minutes
• Portrait, one thumb, made for phones

Stage: playable alpha. We are tuning the first minute based on playtests and want to know where you get stuck. The pencil button in the game sends feedback straight to us.
