Mini Golf: how a round works

Start Mini Golf by looking at the playing area and its controls. Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Check the rule that explains your first action. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

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. Keep the objective visible.

Understand the aim

Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.

How to proceed

  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 interact with the game

Touch aim, angle/power sliders and Putt. Use the control method described here for this activity. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.

Work through an example

A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.

One detail worth checking

The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. Check the rule before repeating the action. 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.
