Mini Golf Language Change

Woah! Playfish is learning fast that their players speaks a variety of language and not only English. This could probably the first game that has language change menu. Have you seen anything similar before? Website yes, but in games, hmm this may be the first?

Metal Detector Trophy - How to at Moscow (9 Coins)

Metal Detector Trophy - Hole 9, Moscow (9 coins)

1. Aim the arrow full blast so that the edge of the triangle hits the left or right side of the wall (I prefer the right side). The ball should reach the large coin on top of the ramp.



2. The ball usually doesn’t hit the small coin on the ramp. Use small force to get closer to the bottom of the ramp. Then, with medium force, aim for the coin.



3. Aim the ball to hit all three flaps and the rest of the coins. (this part is always random, unless you hit the first flap at a certain angle that makes the ball roll in the shape of a diamond, hitting all flaps and coins and entering the launch… I’ve never done it , but know someone who can).



(as you can see, I’m not good at angling and the shot I made did not hit all the flaps, but the black arrow shows how the ball will move if properly angled) Also, I do not know the proper timing so that the bear doesn’t block the ball after it hits the last coin.

4. Aim for the launch once all flaps and coins are hit, but use medium force if you are near the entrance or fairly large force if you’re far (and make sure the bear is not going to block the entrance, i.e. let him pass the entrance and be on his way towards the ramp.

Metal Detector Trophy - How to at Mexico (31 coins)

Metal Detector Trophy - Hole 8, Mexico (31 coins)

1. Aim parallel to the walls and full force. The ball should bounce off all the walls and hit the first coin before stopping in front of the ramp. If not, reset to the beginning.



2. Align the arrow full blast parallel to the walls of the ramp, or point the arrow head slightly off-centre of the top of the ramp. If you do not get the coin, restart to the beginning.



3. Carefully shoot backwards to get the coin at the edge (use less than a cm/0.5 in.) be careful not to roll off. If I don’t fall into grass, but into the path, I like to restart again.



4. Always aim parallel to the tiles, so that the ball bounces off the angled walls and rolls straight along the “wall-less” path.



5. If you miss any coins, go back and always carefully aim to get them (small force).

6. To get the floating coin, 2 steps:
a) aim the ball to bounce back so that it is close to the crocodile’s head.



b) Aim the ball so that it hits the crocodile’s head (usually it should point at his snout/ tip of the crocodile’s mouth, not the top of his head). When you hit the right spot the crocodile will yank open his mouth and throw you golf ball upwards.



7. Aim the ball with medium force towards the hole in the hat.



8. Get the large coins that are beside the Aztec pyramid. Using the angled corners are helpful, especially if the ball is close the walls.



9. Carefully get the 2 small coins in front of the pyramid (if you didn’t get them when shooting through the hat).

10. Line up the ball to the edge of the wall of the pyramid and aim the ball to go straight up the pyramid, but the arrow head bottom edge should just touch the top edge of the pyramid (too much power makes the ball fly behind the pyramid).



11. If the ball does not directly go into the hole, use very little force (0.5cm/0.75 in.) to get into in the hole (too much power will make the ball bounce of walls and/or roll down).

Metal Detector Trophy - How to at London (20 coins)

Metal Detector Trophy - Hole 7, London (20 coins)

1. Aim parallel to the walls and hit full blast. The ball should roll in between the buses and hit the two coins. If not, keep hitting until you get both coins.



2. Aim parallel to second walls and hit the ball full strength when the light turns yellow to green. The ball will roll across the bridge.



3. Gently hit (small to medium force) the ball so that it rolls down, but does not go past the three coins.



*In step 2, you can also hit the ball on a red light. It will roll back down. Then, the next shot you can hit the ball full blast (straight/parallel to walls) when it’s green, so that the ball will roll over the bridge and just before the three coins.



4. Very carefully (very small force, no stem of arrow showing) get the three coins, being careful not to touch the shadow of the Ferris wheel.



5. Then aim the arrow at the shadow of the Ferris wheel with slightly-smaller-than medium force (1.5 cm or a bit more than 0.5 in.). This is to make the ball reach the other side, but not fly into the hole right away.



6. Aim to the left or right side walls to get 2 small coins. With medium-large power, the ball will also roll up to the higher platform.



7. Get the 2 large coins behind Big Ben and the other 2 small coins (the ball will roll down and hit them) by aiming with medium force along the wall.



8. To get up the ramp, use medium force and make sure the arrow is parallel with the ramp and use the wall behind you as well. The arrow tip should just barely climb up the ramp – too much power will cause the ball to bounce off the tower and roll back down.



(in this shot the ball bounced off the tower and stopped close to the edge of the ramp)

9. Carefully get the little coin that’s in front of the hole. Always use little strokes and then only arrowhead “triangles” when really close to the coin/hole.

Metal Detector Trophy - How to get this award?

Metal Detector Trophy in MiniGolf Party– How to get this award?

Contributed by Susanna Lapiuk.

There are a total of 213 coins from the 9 holes:

27 Taj Mahal
24 Beijing
35 Rome
17 Paris
12 New York
38 Egypt
20 London
31 Mexico
9 Moscow

General tips per Susanna:

1. Be patient – you have 50 shots to do each round and it took me MANY attempts before I got the trophy.

2. Be careful – most of the time it is better to use less strength/smaller shots (less than 1cm or 0.5 in.)

3. I recommend practicing Rome, Paris and Egypt as single holes first (they were the most difficult for me) or whichever hole you have problems with.

I'm going to organize this into 9 sub post, because the instructions plus pictures will make the post very long. I'm going to use this page as a main entry page to the rest of the course.
