There’s a new golf course in town and it doesn’t require you to wear an itchy polo shirt or endure the excruciating silence typical of most country clubs! Instead, we’re talking about RemarkaBall, the innovative mini-golf experience that’s about to transform your local bar or restaurant into a buzzing hub of laughter and friendly competition. I can hear the clinking of glasses and the sound of dubious putting skills from here!
Scott Lundmark, the esteemed President of AGS, recently announced this thrilling collaboration with Jora Vision. And let’s be honest, Scott knows what he’s talking about. He said, “RemarkaBall mini golf courses are easy to install and are a good fit for bars, restaurants and other venues.” Clearly, he understands that patrons aren’t just there for the fries and beer—though, let’s face it, who could blame them? They’re seeking entertainment and a little friendly rivalry to spice up their night! Who knew that sinking putts could be just as gratifying as sinking a few pale ales?
Now, what’s the deal with this integrated technology thing? Oh, it’s precisely what the socialites ordered! With RemarkaBall, the game speeds up significantly, allowing guests to maximize enjoyment with every stroke. You can now enjoy a refreshing drink, munch on delicious snacks, or engage in some well-deserved banter with mates—all while trying not to knock over your pint with a wayward swing! The best part? Players can select from a curated library of courses and designs, meaning they can customize their own high-tech mini-golf arena. It’s like building your own amusement park but with fewer screaming children!
Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of RemarkaBall is its set of inventive challenges. Forget about the delicately humdrum tradition of just putting that wee ball into a hole. This game is throwing down some serious challenges! Some mini-golf styles are reminiscent of foosball (though, I wouldn’t advise treating your friends like the little plastic guys). Others bring a thrilling tilt into the experience, guaranteeing that you’re not just standing there like a statue trying your best to channel your inner Tiger Woods.
And if you’re up for *real* commitment, there’s a mini-golf hole that takes inspiration from the game Twister! Yes, you heard that right! As if life wasn’t already challenging enough, now you’ll be balancing your hands and feet on specific spots while simultaneously attempting to make that perfect shot. Who thought mini-golf could feel like a covert mission to the Olympics!
As bars and restaurants search for new ways to attract patrons without falling back on the old karaoke machines and open mic nights filled with questionable talent, RemarkaBall stands out as a fun and unique alternative. It’s not just about hitting that little ball; it’s a chance to socialize, laugh, and perhaps even contemplate why you thought wearing white clothes was a good idea while playing golf. Spoiler: it never is!
So, what are you waiting for? Get down to your local bar or restaurant and check if they’ve jumped on the RemarkaBall bandwagon. Your after-work drinks will never be the same again, and neither will your golf game! Remember, it’s not about the score—it’s about the stories you bring home and the friends you challenge to an embarrassing defeat. Cheers to a more entertaining evening!

“We are excited to announce our partnership with Jora Vision to introduce RemarkaBall to local markets,” stated Scott Lundmark, President of AGS. “Our RemarkaBall mini golf courses have been designed for quick installation, making them an ideal addition to bars, restaurants, and various venues. These engaging installations not only provide entertainment for guests but also significantly boost their retention time on-site. The integrated technology featured in RemarkaBall accelerates gameplay, allowing guests to enjoy their favorite beverages, indulge in delicious snacks, and engage in lively conversations with friends. Customers can access an extensive library of existing courses and game designs, enabling them to create custom high-tech mini golf experiences tailored to their venue. For instance, some courses require players to demonstrate eye-hand coordination in a manner reminiscent of foosball or tilt mechanics, rather than merely putting the ball straight into the hole. Additionally, there is an innovative mini-golf hole inspired by the classic game Twister, where players must skillfully balance their hands and feet on designated points within the hole layout, transforming each shot into an exhilarating physical challenge.” ■
