How to play Mini Golf
Choose a round of Mini Golf and settle into its rules. Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Three original obstacle courses; wall bounces and friction.
Read before acting
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Make the next step deliberately.
Your goal
Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.
Step by step
- Aim a stopped ball.
- Set power and putt.
- Wait until it stops before another shot.
- Use Next hole after sinking.
Controls
Touch aim, angle/power sliders and Putt. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Read the matching step again.
Watch out for this
The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
