putt day

What is putt day?

putt.day turns mini golf into a daily showdown. Everyone receives the same single 3D hole, but reaching the cup may require careful angles, controlled power, bank shots, and the courage to send the ball past some very unfriendly edges.

The controls are relaxing; the consequences are not. You can inspect the course and consider different routes, but your first completed round becomes your daily score. A reckless shortcut might produce glory—or leave another stroke on the scorecard.

putt day Game Rules (The Catch / The Trap)

The objective: Get the ball into the cup using as few strokes as possible.

Aim and power: Grab the ball and drag backward. Your drag direction sets the shot line, while the distance controls its strength.

Short drag → ▰▰░░░ Gentle putt

Long drag → ▰▰▰▰▰ Full-power strike

Inspect the battlefield: Drag somewhere other than the ball to move the camera. Scroll with a mouse or pinch on a touchscreen to zoom before committing to a shot.

Water rule: Landing in water returns the ball to its previous position. When your very first shot finds the water, that opening mistake does not count as a stroke.

The catch: Your first finish is LOCKED IN as the score that matters for that day. You can play creatively, but once the ball enters the cup, that completed result becomes your recorded daily performance.

A new hole appears at midnight Pacific time. Previous daily holes can also be found through the game's calendar.

putt day Strategy & Tips

• Inspect the entire route before touching the ball; hidden corners can completely change the best opening angle.
• Use walls deliberately. A controlled bank shot is often safer than aiming directly across a gap.
• Treat full power as a specialized weapon, not the default setting.
• Watch where the ball slows down. Slopes and changes in direction can reveal how much power the next shot needs.
• Remember the real trap: finishing quickly is easy, but finishing efficiently is what protects your daily score.
