    Explore a tropical rainforest, navigate a polluted waterway, follow the path of a migrating hawk—all while having fun playing miniature golf. Created by the Academy of Natural Sciences, Fore! The Planet features 18 holes of indoor golf in which players test their putting skills and environmental knowledge while gaining a better understanding of their environment. Each hole uses playful components to explore themes such as dinosaur extinction, bat sonar, pollution and recycling.
