New Mini Golf game on the way from Digital Chocolate

And that's magic! As Paul Daniels might say.

If you ask me, mini golf takes more skill than real golf. We'd see how much of a man Tiger Woods was if he had to sink putts with a clown-faced windmill in the way.

Digital Chocolate has released several mini golf mobile games, but its latest sounds like a step on. Mini Golf Magic, as you might guess from the title, has a bunch of features that aren't strictly realistic.

Like what? Like bouncing borders, fans, magnets, ice, teleports, mines – I'm sure they don't allow that in the real world – and hypno wheels, whatever they are.

The game even features a bonus shooting gallery, and a version of Breakout, while you'll be able to unlock bonus courses and items if you play skilfully enough.

Digital Chocolate also says the game will be trickier than the average mini golf game, which may or may not be a coded way of saying it's teeth-grindingly difficult. Hopefully not.

Like the publisher's previous crazy putting sims, Mini Golf Magic will come out in both 2D and 3D flavours, and is expected to touch down in mid-November.
