KingsIsle Goes Golfing!
It’s no surprise that there’s a lot of work to get done here at KingsIsle, with two major MMOs running and lots of secret projects in the works! Even though we work hard, we also play hard. About once a month, KingsIsle employees from all different departments get together for a company sponsored fun day. These fun days range from playing board games at the office to going to the Austin food bank and lending a helping hand. Last week we headed to a new Austin sensation, Top Golf, to practice our swing!
Top Golf takes the concept of working on your golf game to a new level by adding targets to the driving range and special micro-chipped balls that track each player’s score. Being a bunch of gamers, we obviously enjoyed turning golf into a live action mini game!
We have some impressive golfers here at KingsIsle! I however, am not one of them and was very content to hit the not-so-very-far-in red and yellow targets. Hey, not everyone can be Tiger Woods!
Even though my drives were pretty close in, we had some golfers with quite a bit of oomph behind their swing. Wait a second, is this golf or baseball? I thought the balls were supposed to hit the targets… not the cars!
Of course, not everyone felt like golfing. Many people here are gamers through and through, and that’s not limited to just computer games. Just inside the driving range, several intense tabletop games were going on like Settlers of Catan and WizWar.
Whether you played golf or games, this latest fun day was a great way to relax and socialize with co-workers outside of the office. Having a fun day like this leaves us refreshed and ready for more hard work ahead. Plus who knows, we may get some cool ideas from these outings! Wizard golfing anyone? Just kidding, but you never know… 🙂

Nice to see Kingsisle is taking a break, relaxing with each other, and having fun.
Yep I Feel Same,
kingsisle pls send everybody little bit crown i mean 1ooo for everybody free so for that more people will play the game
I think burhanuddin is right i agree with him.
I’d like a day where crowns could be free or there was a free competition for crowns or games to earn them
same here
can you give us a few crowns for every body and memberships for one day when you finished golfing
Here we go! This is what I was looking for! Things KingsIsle do other than work work, work. Oh and there! Look! WORK!

coool now plz be my friend
wizard golfing is a great idea but it would be better to make it pirate golfing
don’t you think
Pirate’s aren’t as civilized as Wizards so they won’t like golf.
yea it is nice that they have a break and I have a question for kingsisle what r the next worlds being created.

Hope you had fun at golf and thanks for making Aquila for us. Too bad I’m without a membership..!
I’m glad to see that Kingsisle employees take breaks from working on the most awesome MMO’s I know.. I’m a little curious about those “secret projects” they mentioned…
LOVE YOU WIZARD101!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FAVORITE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its cool how they added a stromzilla in the background very creative (:
cool i wanna work for kingslise 😛
How fun!
I think you guys should make to cool crown outfit and make the cost go down and the lvl for it you well make more money maybe give it a shot.
It’s good they are taking a break.
Love the pictures.
nice to have a day golfing i wish i could but i am to busy playing wizard 101
Is the shark from pirate 101?
It’s great to see Kingsisle having a day of fun after all the work they do on the games.
I think golf in wizard101 could actually be a nice new pet game!
yeah that actually would
ya it would be but would it be cool if we got crowns for quest? i mean a lot of kids want crowwns bad.
yeah I do because I am not allowed to buy crowns
Looks like loads of fun! 🙂 Can’t wait till more stuff comes out for Pirate101, I’m almost topped out haha Just got to Aquila and I love it! Great job 🙂
i love the huge dinosaur guy xD
I like golf but wizard golfing is way better
hey guys i had an idea your next big game should be knights101
wow
Hope you have a fun day 😀
cool idea Anonymous.
wizards golfing wonder how hard that was and pirate golfing too
plz give a bit a crowns to every one so atleast they can unlock one area and so they can continue playing the game about 1500 cuz people out there can buy fire cat and cyclops lane and if they only unlock cyclops they can unlock firecat and buy 2 packs and thats it is it too much to ask plz just give us this chance plz king isle plz!!!!! we beg of you ~wizard 101 21 member club that has one area or none at all
Just a word of advice for the tabletop gamers – let the Buccaneer win!
i like this game very much. It hard that yall make this game. So I very happy yall make it.
