About the game
This is a mini expansion for Minigolf Designer and requires the base game to play. Inside, you will find 5 double layered score sheets to replace the original ones and new gameplay additions: 4 new clients (two women and two men) to renew the client whim flavor and 24 new tiles, including tricky tiles with 3 red and 1 green edge. Here are how the new clients score: - Mrs Noreturn likes directional tiles (the tiles with a white arrow). Before, these tiles were just penalizing you if you placed them in the wrong direction, now Mrs Noreturn will actually reward you for each arrow in the right direction. - Mr Intheway gives points for a tile feature that was not exploited yet in the game: obstacles. - Mrs Camper likes the grass tiles, which will be perfect if you chose her with Mr Short, but will be more challenging with Mr Long. - Mr Perfect will satisfy perfectionist players, as he gives you points for each perfectly respected constraint (3 victory points for playability, 4 for the land constraint, 5 for the circuit constraint, and 6 for the par constraint). -- Publisher description
