Mini golf you can send in a chat

Mini golf is the friendliest sport there is: no lessons, no clubs to carry, just a ball, a putter and a course full of walls, bumpers, sand and water. On BeatMe the course travels as a link. Pick 3 or 9 holes, play your round, and send the beatme.link link: your friend plays exactly the same holes and tries to beat your score.

Every course is drawn from 18 handmade holes: straight warm-ups, doglegs, bumper alleys, sand traps, a bridge over the water, slopes that bend your putt and a few walls you have to play round. Each putt is checked on our server, so the score on the card is the score that was played.

How to play Mini Golf

Start and pick your course

Type your name and choose 3 holes (a quick round) or 9 holes. Up to four players can join the same course.

Pull back and let go

Touch the course anywhere and pull back, like a slingshot: the dotted line shows where the ball goes, its length shows the power. Let go to putt. On a computer, drag with the mouse, or aim with the arrow keys and press Space.

Mind the hazards

Walls and bumpers bounce the ball, sand slows it down, slopes push it sideways. Water costs a stroke and puts the ball back where it was.

Fewest strokes wins

After 6 strokes on a hole the ball is picked up and the hole counts 7. When everyone has played every hole, the lowest total wins.

The holes

  • Bumpers are pink and bouncy: aim off them on purpose.
  • Sand brakes the ball hard, so give it more power through a bunker, or go around.
  • Water costs a penalty stroke. The ball comes back to where you putted from.
  • Slopes are the darker green with arrows: they push the ball the way the arrows point.
  • Par is the number of strokes a good round needs: 2, 3 or, on the hardest hole, 4.

Tips for fewer strokes

  • Use the walls. On a dogleg, a bank shot off the far wall is often the shortest way to the cup.
  • Not too hard. A ball that is too fast rolls over the cup. Near the hole, a soft putt drops.
  • Lay up past the water. One safe putt beats a risky one that costs two strokes.
  • Same holes, same bounces. The course behaves exactly the same for everyone, so after the round, watch the replay to see how your friend did it.

Mini Golf FAQ

Can I play mini golf online with a friend for free?

Yes. Start a game on this page, send the link and your friend plays in their browser. It is free, with no app and no account.

Do we have to play at the same time?

No. You can play your round right away and send the link afterwards; your friend plays the same holes whenever they like and sees the score to beat. The link stays open for 48 hours after the last putt.

Do both players get the same course?

Yes. Everyone in a game gets the same holes in the same order, and the ball rolls exactly the same way for everyone: the same putt always gives the same result.

Can three or four people play?

Yes. Pick 3 or 4 players when you start and send the link to your group. Everyone plays their own round, and the places go by total strokes.

How do I putt on a phone or a computer?

On a phone or tablet, touch the course anywhere, pull back and let go. On a computer, drag with the mouse the same way, or aim with the arrow keys (up and down for the power) and press Space or Enter.

Can I see how my friend played a hole?

Not while you are still playing: you only see their strokes per hole, so nobody can copy a line. Once everyone has finished, the replay shows every putt.

What happens if the ball goes in the water?

The putt counts, plus one penalty stroke, and the ball goes back to where you putted from.
