The game survived

The original Adventure Golf app eventually left the App Store and Google Play, but the Android build has been preserved. You can find it β€” along with the original business plan and other archived files β€” in the Vault.

A note from Kevin

This site is an archive. The door is still open.

Putter King began in 2010 as a daydream on the Yamanote line β€” 18 themed holes, a little character named Putty, a warehouse in Oyama that never got built. The app shipped, the scavenger hunts connected people across three continents, and then the world moved on.

I kept the dream. If you've read this far and something in you lit up β€” if you're thinking β€œI could actually build one of these” β€” I'd love to hear from you. I'm open to helping, investing, or co-founding a real Putter King location with the right person.
