WHAT IS PUTT PARTY?

Putt Party is an Activity that we've developed here at Discord. It is our putting golf game that you can play with your friends! Play through themed courses simultaneously as you try to get your ball in the hole in the fewest amount of strokes. Scattered throughout the courses are power-ups that can be used to make your shots easier, or your opponent’s shots harder. Players who complete the course in the fewest amount of strokes are the winners!

Since we’re still testing, Putt Party is only available in a small (random) selection of servers. However, you can play Putt Party and other early Activities in the public Discord Games Lab server!

Since the game is still an experimental experience, we’re looking to hear feedback directly from our users so you’ll see Discord devs in there pretty frequently!

Q: How do I view/delete my Activities on Discord data?

A: To enhance the gameplay experience, Discord Activities access and temporarily store the following user data once a user joins the Activity:

For Activities played in a single session, user data is stored so long as the Activity remains active, even if the user leaves the Activity. Once all users leave the Activity and it is determined the Activity has ended, the user data is deleted and no longer retained.

For Activities that can be played across multiple sessions (like with Chess in the Park or Checkers in the Park), the user data above is retained. You can view or delete your data from these Activities on this website.

Note: Deleting your data will remove all of your progression across these Discord-developed activities.
