Game Spark's latest Roguelike/Roguelite Club column features Rogolf, a mini-golf roguelite from Seabird Interactive. Players work as toy testers, clearing randomly selected holes with mission conditions like coin collection or bounce limits. Scoring combines remaining strokes with multiplier points, and failing to meet a floor's score threshold results in being fired.
Game Spark's 50th Roguelike/Roguelite Club entry spotlights Rogolf, a mini-golf roguelite from Seabird Interactive. Players are hired as toy testers and must clear randomly generated holes that impose mission conditions beyond par-collecting coins, limiting wall bounces, or finishing within a time limit. Each floor has three holes, and the total score must meet a threshold or the player is fired. Scoring multiplies remaining strokes by coins collected on the course, resembling Balatro's multiplier system. Between floors, players buy coffee for buffs and cards from vending machines. The column notes that some mission combinations feel unreasonable, especially time-limited ones, but calls the game a good palate cleanser for occasional play.
