Miniature Golf on the Atari 2600 is an early sports simulation video game released in 1979, with gameplay centered around a simplified version of golf. Designed for one or two players, the game features a top-down perspective where players aim to putt a square pixelated ball into a hole across a variety of small, obstacle-laden courses. The objective is to finish each course in as few strokes as possible. This minimalist representation captures the essence of putting with rudimentary graphics and basic controls, reflecting the limitations of early home gaming systems of its time. Its genre is sports, specifically golf simulation.
