| OTSG Staff

A beautiful drive down the fairway is a satisfying feeling. And yet, beyond the trees, you spy an alternative. A short-cut to the green. Do you take the chance? Hit off-course on purpose in this golf-themed board game for 1 to 5 players. With some clever thinking, you’ll be able to turn bad luck into the perfect shot.

In 18 Holes, you’ll design and build the course, you’ll draft for clubs and you’ll compete on course to win. Every hole is an opportunity to outplay your opponents and reach the green first. Play solo or with two to five players either around the table or remote using our companion app.

Every game of 18 Holes plays on a new course. Design it together or go online to the 18 Holes Clubhouse and play a course created by another player. With 49 different double-sided tiles, course-adjustment tiles and eight different game modes (including solo and two player). 18 Holes lets you tailor the playing experience to suit your crowd.
