Getting started with Mini Golf

Take a moment with Mini Golf before moving to another game. Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Use the example below to understand a decision. Keep the instructions close while learning this activity. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

Three original obstacle courses; wall bounces and friction.

Give this approach a try

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Use the example to check your reasoning.

What the game asks you to do

Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.

From the start of a round

1. Aim a stopped ball.
2. Set power and putt.
3. Wait until it stops before another shot.
4. Use Next hole after sinking.

How to use the controls

Touch aim, angle/power sliders and Putt. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

See how the rules apply

A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Take a moment to compare.

One detail worth checking

The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. Check the rule before repeating the action. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
