Once a fanatic who would crawl through broken glass to make sure I kept my daily streak alive, I now only remember to play Wordle maybe a few times a month. <\/p>\n<p>Hey, it happens. Five empty boxes can only remain appealing for so long.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;m always on the lookout for a new daily fix, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-games-like-wordle\/\">game like Wordle<\/a> that isn&#8217;t actually Wordle, and I&#8217;m happy to say I&#8217;ve found my latest morning go-to game. It&#8217;s not about words at all, unless you count a couple four-letter words like GOLF and PUTT. <\/p>\n<p>My new daily game is called <a href=\"https:\/\/putt.day\/\">putt.day<\/a>, and it&#8217;s a new hole of minigolf each and every day. You already know how to play, probably: click and drag behind the ball (or press and drag if you&#8217;re on mobile). The further you drag, the harder your shot will be. Drag anywhere else on the screen to look around, zoom in and out using the mouse wheel (or by pinching on mobile) and try to get your ball to the hole in as few shots as possible.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m terrible at it, and seemingly most of the PC Gamer staff is too, but the important thing is we&#8217;ve found something new to do with a couple minutes of our time every morning. You can share scores, Wordle-like, on social media or in chats, and you can replay a hole if you want to beat your own score.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no sign-in, though it&#8217;ll keep track of your streaks and scores as long as you don&#8217;t clear your browser data. There&#8217;s also an archive of past holes that goes back about two months if a single hole per day isn&#8217;t enough for you.<\/p>\n<p>Putt.day is made by <a href=\"https:\/\/ell.dev\/\">ell.dev<\/a>, using public domain minigolf models created by <a href=\"https:\/\/kenney.nl\/assets\/minigolf-kit\">Kenney<\/a>. Give it a try! I got 20 in today&#8217;s course, which is a par 12 (I told you I was terrible) but I&#8217;m sure you can do better.<\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height: 250px;\">\n<div class=\"kwizly-quiz kwizly-XmA0RX\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> <script src=\"https:\/\/kwizly.com\/embed\/XmA0RX.js\" async><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"e92baa23-d893-45cc-af03-65f4d5947842\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Steam sale dates\" data-dimension48=\"Steam sale dates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:550px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"dmLfcTEceHMYUpsciYxiDT\" name=\"steam rpgs\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/my-new-daily-game-is-like-wordle-but-for-minigolf.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/steam-sale-dates\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"e92baa23-d893-45cc-af03-65f4d5947842\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Steam sale dates\" data-dimension48=\"Steam sale dates\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>Steam sale dates<\/strong><\/a>: When&#8217;s the next event?<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/epic-games-store-free-games-list\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Epic Store free games<\/strong><\/a>: What&#8217;s free right now?<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-50-best-free-pc-games\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Free PC games<\/strong><\/a>: The best freebies you can grab<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/new-pc-games-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>2026 games<\/strong><\/a>: This year&#8217;s upcoming releases<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-free-games-on-steam\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Free Steam games<\/strong><\/a>: No purchase necessary<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/sports\/my-new-daily-game-is-like-wordle-but-for-minigolf\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve pretty much lapsed in my Wordle devotion.
