To make a shot, using the joystick, move the crosshair in the approximate direction and distance where you wish the ball to go.
When you are ready to shoot, hit the fire button.
You will notice the level rise in the power bar.
When the bar reaches the desired distance, press the fire button again.
When you release the fire button, the bar starts to move back down.
The mark where you stopped the bar moving indicates the power with which you hit the ball.
When the bar reaches the bottom of the power bar, it moves horizontally on the accuracy bar.
In the middle of the accuracy bar is the center line.
Too much to the left of center, it pulls to the left.
Too much to the right of center, it pulls to the right.
Press the fire button at the right moment to hit the ball.

About Game Boy
The original Game Boy (1989) proved that handheld gaming didn't need cutting-edge graphics to succeed — its monochrome screen and legendary battery life, combined with Tetris as a pack-in, made it a cultural phenomenon. Game Boy cartridges are famously durable, so this remains one of the more accessible retro platforms to collect, though translucent color variants and complete-in-box copies with the original brick-sized manual add real value for condition-focused collectors.
Gamevaro tracks Mini-Putt for Game Boy with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Mini-Putt to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GB release dates back to 1987.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Mini-Putt, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Game Boy titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
