Play Mini Golf with the rules at hand

Bring your attention to one round of Mini Golf. Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. Use the example below to understand a decision. Check the rule that explains your first action. Look at what changes after your first action.

Three original obstacle courses; wall bounces and friction.

One thing to notice as you play

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Use the example to check your reasoning.

The challenge in front of you

Sink all three holes within twelve strokes per hole. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Review the board or playing area as it changes.

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.

The controls to know

Touch aim, angle/power sliders and Putt. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.

Put the rules into context

A soft final putt can sink where a fast crossing would not. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the game’s format in mind.

Check this before moving on

The hole accepts only a sufficiently slow ball. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
