PGA launches mobile golf game for kids made with Niantic Lightship

PGA announced a new mobile title today: PGA Jr League Safari Par-Tee, a golf game with animal avatars. It was created with Niantic’s Lightship tools. It’s currently available to download for free on iOS and Android.

The app, which is developed by Trigger, is a cartoonish golf sim aimed at kids and families. Players choose a cute animal to play as, and then hit a golf ball by dragging their finger across the swing to control the power and direction of their swing. It features a multiplayer component in which players can battle each other in 2v2 or 1v1. In addition to trying to get below par, the players have to deal with a variety of obstacles on their course.
