What is Pingolf?
Pingolf is a different way to play pinball. Whereas when you typically play pinball, the goal is to get a higher score than the other players or your best score, in Pingolf, you'll play through a "course" (series of machines) where each "hole" (machine) will have its own "par" (objective) you're trying to reach in as few balls as possible. Sometimes the objective is a target score and sometimes the objective is something else, like completing a game mode. Each ball played on a hole in an attempt to reach the objective is a "stroke," and the goal is to have the lowest stroke count at the end of the course.
So, for instance, let's say you're playing a hole where the par is 3 and the objective is a target score of 100 million points. If you get to 100 million points in one ball, that's a hole-in-one and will count as 1 stroke. But if after ball 1, you only have 50 million, you'd need to play another ball. If you get to 100 million on that ball, you'd note down a 2. If the machine is set to 3 balls and you don't get to 100 million after 3 balls, then you'll note down a 4 on your scorecard since you did not reach the objective using the max number of balls for that hole. If you complete the objective within par or less, you do not need to play the remaining ball in that game. In fact, as soon as you reach the objective, you can quit playing your ball.
