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.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Game Spark's roguelike column covers Rogolf, a mini-golf roguelite where you test toy courses, complete missions per hole, and meet score thresholds or get fired.
