Three Pins is a free browser-based 3D golf game designed for quick daily play, relaxed practice, and friendly competition. Players can start without downloading the game or creating an account, while signing in lets them keep stats, use a personal Locker, and connect with friends. The Daily Challenge offers three shared holes each day, giving everyone the same course and one scored attempt. For longer sessions, Free Play features full 18-hole rounds across twelve courses, with opportunities to practise or pursue course records.

Players can also create or join live Party rounds with friends. Party modes include stroke play, skins, match play, and horse-race elimination, with participants’ balls visible during play. The game features strategic shot controls for club selection, aim, power, trajectory, and ball shape, alongside changing wind, elevation, and lies. On-course power-ups add options such as extra distance, wind protection, putting reads, and a do-over for shots into water or out of bounds. Three Pins also provides a scorecard, course map, leaderboards, and installation for home-screen play.
