About the game

What is Mars Open: Tabletop Golf?

Colonizing is hard work! Relax with a rousing round of golf on the Mars back-nine! Can you land your specially-engineered golf ball between the rocky hazards on the wind-swept Martian plateau? Can you drive over treacherous terrain and sink your shot in fewer flicks than your opponents? You'll be surprised how much golf on Mars plays like the classic Earth game, and with dozens of hole arrangements there is no shortage of exciting new challenges. Suit up, grab your clubs, and flick for a crater-hole-in-one! Mars Open: Tabletop Golf is a dexterity golf game. On your turn, flick your golf ball card over obstacles and toward the crater hole box. Your goal is to land your ball in the box in as few strokes as possible. After all players have finished the hole, reassemble the obstacles into the next hole and tee off again. The winner is the player with the lowest score after nine (or eighteen) holes.
