How to play Mini Golf
Bring your attention to one round of Mini Golf. Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Look at what changes after your first action. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Three original obstacle courses; wall bounces and friction.
Build a steady rhythm
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. 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. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use one clear input at a time.
A useful example
A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Check the stated objective.
Watch out for this
The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
