Atlantic City - 18 stops - par 55
Banking a ball off the salt-worn facades of Atlantic City requires a steady hand and a bit of luck. The map is the real city, and the round is played on its actual streets, using landmarks like the Absecon Lighthouse as the holes. A full round of 18 holes covers 7.2 mi with a total par of 55. Skip knows these sidewalks well enough to find the best angles, even when a stray crumb distracts him from the line.
The course is drawn on the real street grid, so the map you play is the map you walk.
Drag to aim, release to swing. Buildings bounce and water costs you a stroke.
Every hole ends at an attraction. Sink the putt, read the story, walk to the next tee.
