Mini Links

How to play

Mini Links is a calm, untimed mini-golf game set in the sunlit lowlands of Speedway, where the chicken has hung up her racing goggles to caddie for you. HOW TO PUTT 1. Press and hold the ball. A power ring appears around it. 2. Drag backwards, away from the direction you want to go — like pulling back a slingshot. The further you pull, the harder the putt, and the ring fills up to show it. 3. A dashed line springs out of the ball and traces the whole path: down the green, off the wooden walls, around corners, curving down slopes. A small ring marks the spot where the ball will come to rest — and it glows green when that spot is the hole. 4. Let go to putt, and watch the ball roll exactly along that line. 5. Changed your mind? Slide back onto the ball and release. The aim cancels, and it does not count as a shot. HOW YOU PROGRESS 1. Sink the ball and the hole is done. That is the only thing that finishes a hole — there is no timer and no shot limit, so take as many putts as you like. 2. Nine holes make a course. Finish all nine and you get a scorecard, a fanfare and a keepsake pennant for that course. 3. There are four courses — 36 holes in all — and each one adds something the last did not: • Sunlit Greens — the basics: banks you can bounce off. • Windmill Yard — turning windmills and sliding gates, so timing starts to matter. • Canyon Rim — slopes that curve the ball as it rolls. • Coral Terrace — water that floats your ball back for free, and conch shells that teleport it across the green. 4. Every course is open from the start. Play them in order or jump straight to the one you like. 5. Your best score on each hole is saved automatically, so there is always your own round to beat. Replay any hole as often as you want — you can never lose progress. The dashed line is not a rough guess. It runs the very same physics as the real shot, so what you see is precisely what happens — bounces, slopes and all. Line up a tricky double bank, watch the preview drop it in, then release and know it will. Stuck on a line? Tap the chicken. She works out a real shot for you and shows it as a faint dashed line. It is free and you can ask as often as you like. There is no timer, no shot clock, and no way to fail a hole. Water simply floats your ball back to safety — never a penalty. Par is something to aim at, never a wall.
