== The Sims: Makin' Magic ==
There are various mini-golf objects that can be found in Magic Town, using them raises the Fun motive.
===Hole of Harmony Mini-Golf===
Once upon a time, a scribe named Tsang drew out the plans for an object he claimed would change the face of the planet, an object he called, The Hole of Harmony. But the plans were misplaced, and eventually lost to the annals of time. Then, almost 3000 years later, two doctors by the names of Wilsonoff and Gast uncovered the plans during a dangerous excavation near the Bachman-Wood Forest, and took it upon themselves to see the ancient visionary's work through to completion. Thus beginning Mini-Golf...

===Veel Geluk Windmill Green===
Invented originally to mill corn and pump water from low-lying parts of Holland, it wasn't until quite late in the 20th century that the windmill's fine miniature golf properties were discovered. The putt-putt windmill's popularity spread like wildfire, springing up on courses from Altoona to Zermatt.

===Clown O' Tears Mini Golf===
Originally a game from the 1920's, miniature golf didn't really take off until the 1950's when suburban leisure utopias first captured the imagination. Part of the appeal lay in the whimsical, fantastic course sculptures that appealed to the stimulation-deprived children of the day. So go vintage with a Clown O' Tears mini golf setup today, and watch tourist simoleons fill your pockets tomorrow!

===Princess Run Golf Trap===
Bring a firm resolve with you to this hole, and a sword if you have one handy. Even Sir George would find a birdie hard to come by here. A swift and steady shot through the portcullis may be the only salvation from the fire-breathing menace who's guarding this castle.

==The Urbz: Sims in the City==
A driving range tee shows up on the terrace of Darius' Penthouse.
==The Sims 2==
The Execuputter is a career reward object, unlocked after reaching level 5 (becoming Executive) of the business career. Using it raises Fun motive, as well as builds the charisma skill at an accelerated rate.
==The Sims 3: Showtime==
Any time is tee time with the Slice of Life portable golf driving range. Have a ball - or a whole bucket! - as you tee off into the ocean, woods or the side of your annoying neighbor's house. Fore!
Sims use the tee one at a time, and will hit shots every now and then. Though the ball vanishes after around 20yd and that players can't see it land, each individual tee nevertheless keep a high score measurement of the farthest shot hit from it, often in excess of 200yd.
Using the driving range increases the Athletic skill relatively slowly.
== Trivia ==
* Bella Goth's biography in The Sims and her Strangetown clone's in The Sims 2 states that "she enjoys a variety of activities from golf to miniature golf".
