WALKABOUT MINI GOLF: MEOW WOLF

OUT NOW!

The newest location of Meow Wolf is everywhere… thanks to a collaboration with two studios of artists and weirdos. Walkabout Mini Golf: Meow Wolf is open on December 7 if you are. Here, players will be invited to putt through portals of possibility to score and explore a wondrous, kaleidoscopic, experimental world of fun-filled play. The course is the 23rd for Walkabout Mini Golf players and the first entirely virtual experience for Meow Wolf—a company that redefines the paradigm of art and storytelling to make a positive difference in the world via IRL locations around the U.S.

Our friend and co-founder of Meow Wolf, Caity Kennedy wrote a little about the inspiration: “Numina is a benevolent, multiversal being that interprets mini golf and virtual reality as just another set of beings, physics and spaces to play within. This expansive space provides a spectrum of new ways to create and play in near limitless expressions and I am curious to see how people come together here for new, transformational experiences from near and far!”

The course includes 18 easy mode and 18 hard mode holes, collectible golf balls to seek out in-game, a commemorative putter, Meow Wolf-themed avatars for dressing up in the course and anywhere in Walkabout Mini Golf, and is teeming with familiar and new Meow Wolf creatures, colorful flora, mysterious portals, and more gameplay mechanics than any other course to date. 

  • +57 species of plant, all of which were designed, modeled from scratch, colored, and placed by hand. The portion of our polygon budget devoted to plant life is 60%, the most it has ever been.

  • 12 unique, named character rigs, 33 animated creatures altogether. For both the most we have ever done.

Walkabout Mini Golf: Meow Wolf opens new realms of reality where an otherworldly being called Numina communicates with players through the language of mini golf via fanciful, curious, and often mischievous results. The creative collaboration between the artists of Meow Wolf and Mighty Coconut invites mini golfers to expand their game—and their minds. 

The whole idea came from within the Walkabout Mini Golf player community, from one player who happened to be the founder of Meow Wolf:

“Bringing Meow Wolf to Walkabout Mini Golf is such an exciting step for us as a storytelling company,” said Vince Kadlubek. “Millions of people every year get to experience the magic of our Meow Wolf worlds by visiting our exhibitions in person, but now we get to share our artistic worlds with an exponentially larger audience all around the world. This partnership with Mighty Coconut has been an awesome way of unlocking this potential for us.”
