An introduction to playing Mini Golf

Take a closer look while playing

After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Refer to the controls when needed.

The purpose of your moves

Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

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.

Controls

Touch aim, angle/power sliders and Putt. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

Try this example

A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.

A useful caution

The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
