The classic card game is now available for Game Boy! Try to get the lowest score as you remove cards from the tableau. Play the strict form of Golf, or select from the many game options available to customize play and make it easier. For beginners and veterans alike.

This game ROM is fully compatible with the Game Boy, Game Boy Color (with added color), Super Game Boy, and Game Boy Advance line of consoles, along with your emulator of choice. Of course you can always play it in the browser!

How to Play

  • Only the topmost card in each pile may be removed from the tableau. When it is removed, the card beneath becomes available for play.
  • Cards may be moved from the tableau to the foundation if they are either one rank higher or one rank lower than the top card of the foundation, regardless of suit, but nothing may be played on top of a King.
  • Cards rank A 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 J Q K. There is no "wrapping" (Ace on a King, or King on an Ace) in the strict form of Golf.
  • Whenever there are no possible plays, turn cards up one at a time from the stock to the foundation and resume playing cards from the tableau when possible.
  • There is no redeal. The game is over when the stock is exhausted and no more moves are available.

Optional Rules

You can customize gameplay to make it easier or more challenging. You can set rules on the "Game Options" screen from the main menu.

  • Queen on King — ability to place a Queen on a King.
  • Wraparound — ability to place an Ace on a King, or King on an Ace.
  • Start empty — pick the first card from the tableau.
