You're the architect. This land could be a golf course — figure out how.

You arrive on a raw piece of land — hills, water, trees, open ground and tight corners — and it's on you to see what it could become. Where does the first tee sit? Does the green tuck into that hollow, or does the fairway bend around the water instead? Where do golfers warm up before they play, and where will they need to stop for food, drink, and bathroom breaks? You're standing on unbuilt land like the great golf architects of old, and now it's your turn to figure out how to turn it into somewhere people genuinely want to play a round of golf.

Read the land, then shape it

• Sculpt the terrain — raise hills, dig valleys, carve ponds and streams, and reshape the ground itself until the land supports the course you're picturing.

• Lay out each hole by hand — set the tee, choose the line to the green, and decide whether this is a short, tricky par 3 or a long par 5 that asks golfers to think their way down it.

• Paint fairway, rough, green, bunker, water and more right onto the terrain, with saved layouts you can save and stamp for quick designs.

• Plan the whole property, not just the holes — fit in a practice green, a driving range, the clubhouse amenities alongside the golf itself, and the trees and land around so the course feels like a real place.

• Chase a hole that's both beautiful and fun to play — every hole gets scored on its looks and its playability, so you can keep adjusting until it's genuinely cozy and interesting, not just pretty from above.

Then watch golfers actually play it

• Simulated golfers and shots — a full field of golfers plays your course using a genuine shot model, so clubs, wind, terrain, and skill all matter. Watch your holes get played the way you imagined — or completely differently.

• Let what you see shape what you build next — use the heatmap to notice where golfers land, where they struggle, and where a hazard you placed actually changes how they play the hole, then use that to plan the next one with more confidence.

• Wildlife wanders the property — ambient critters, and legendary hawks and coyotes that will make their home on a course you've kept in good shape.

• Photo mode for capturing the course at its best.

And run the place you built

• Grow across a region — buy more land, build a course on each plot, and manage a whole portfolio from one shared wallet.

• Reputation and green fees reward a course that's genuinely good to play, so getting the design right pays for itself.

• Members and staff — sign club members, hire greenskeepers to keep the course in shape overnight, and run a touring beverage cart around the property.

• Tournaments, plus a finances view so you can watch the business side come together alongside the golf.

• Sandbox mode with infinite money, if you'd rather just build.

More

• Play As — jump in and take the shots yourself, enjoying your own layout and your own rounds.

• Multiple languages and metric/imperial units.

• Watch the Broadcast sit back and tune in to a built in mode that follows golfers live with a team of commentators on the course.
