Minigolf Party Tips, Tricks, & Cheats

Okay, this week, its all about Playfish’s latest title, Minigolf Party. This stellar little game lets you play rounds of miniature golf with your friends in some rather exotic and worldly locals. As with other Playfish games, players vie for the high score - but more than that, they also strive to unlock all the achievements and trophies they can. However, this task can be a lot more daunting than one might think - but don’t worry, that’s what we’re here for. So it seems that a number of people struggle in finding what all of the trophies actually are. Well, here is a nice neat list for you: Welcome Badge - First full round of golf Lifetime Achievement - play more than 50 games of golf Hole In One! - Making a hole in one shot Coin Collector - collect more than 100 coins Coins? What Coins? - Five Coins or less collected on a full course Metal Detector - Collect all coins in a course Party Hat - Par on all holes in a course Professional - Under par on all holes in a course Birds Nest - Birdies or better on all holes in a course Where Eagles dare - Eagle or better in one hole Party Player - Have 20 friends playing Giving Golfer - Gift more than 20 items to friends Challenge Champ - Win more than 20 challenges against your friends Need A Towel? - Hit the ball in a pond 5 times Treasure Hunter - Find the secret treasure chest Enthusiast - Play more than 10 rounds of golf in 1 hour Okay, now that you know what to look for, it’s time to get some tips on how to get those tougher ones. Quite possibly, the two most asked about trophies are "Metal Detector" and "Treasure Hunter." When going for these achievements, score can be of no concern to you, because you’re definitely not getting par while searching for these. Nevertheless, the Treasure Hunter trophy can be acquired on the Egypt course. If you look closely, you should notice a small, square block to the right of the Great Pyramid that is surrounded by four, orange flowers. That is your target. Beneath it is a hole that leads to the basement of the pyramid in which the treasure is hidden. In order to access the hole, you first have to move the block. Notice how the Sphinx has a nose? Well, the real Sphinx’s nose is actually broken, as such, you will need to correct this "oversight." Carefully line your ball up with the left foot of the Sphinx and launch the ball into its nose. This will open up the hole to the right of the pyramid. Now all you need to do is get the ball close enough to its base so you can ramp it into the hole. It is a tricky shot, but here is a video that should help you out. Not only will finding this treasure get you the Treasure Hunter trophy, but it will put you one step closer to getting the Metal Detector trophy. That in mind, there are still a few hidden and tough coins to get. The most common ones that are missed come from Rome and France. In France, they aren’t hidden, just a pain to get because if you make one mistake, you will have to start over. The trouble spot is the last four coins by the Eiffel Tower. No real trick here except, play very soft positioning. If you hit the ball even the slightest bit too hard, the slope will slide the ball into the hole. This takes a very steady hand and patience as you will have to do it four times. Just gently nudge the ball to each coin and you will be fine. Rome, on the other hand, requires less subtlety. In this course, the coins are hidden, so take a wild guess where. That’s right, they are in the Colosseum. If you notice, there are two collapsed columns in the middle of the course. The shorter one, is actually a ramp. Simply position the ball near it and give it a nice whack towards the roof of the Colosseum. Assuming you hit it hard enough, it should land right in the middle, collect the hidden coins and fly out onto the pizza at the end. That should help you out in getting those trophies unlocked for yourself, but if you want to beat those high scores, you had better learn how to get coins in all the courses without sacrificing as many swings. It all comes down to practice and patience. Think about those shots, experiment with different methods, and slowly work your way up there. Good luck, and happy golfing.
