Fall Guys Guide: How to win at Hoopsie Daisy

Now that Fall Guys has finally released, over 1.5 million players have entered the fight for first place in the wacky battle royale-style game. Playing a series of minigames with the aim to be the last jellybean standing at the end of it all, there’s a lot to learn if you want to be the best. Here’s how to win at Hoopsie Daisy.

How to win Hoopsie Daisy

In Hoopsie Daisy, the goal is simple: dive through rings to earn points for your team. Only one player can dive through a ring to score the point before that ring floats off to a new position. The team with the fewest points at the end is eliminated, but there’s no real way to target opponents in this game mode. Of all the team games, this is perhaps the one that players can put in the most individual effort.

To get through hoops faster, dive in the air. This could allow you to beat an enemy to a ring, and it also allows you a small change in direction if your jump wasn’t perfectly placed. Finding a golden hoop will net you 5 points, so it’s always worth making a run for.

At either end of the stage, you’ll find a rotating platform and a ramp. It’s advisable to stick around in these areas for maximum coverage. Always be on the move, conserving what little momentum you have in Fall Guys, and you stand a better chance of making it to the new rings first.

Since all Fall Guys players can only run at the same steady pace, there’s no way to overtake someone who is in front of you, running for the same ring. It’s not worth going for every goal, therefore, but if you think your presence could psyche out your opponent into missing a trickier jump - go for it. 

Quick Tips

• Always stay on the move, and watch for rings that are about to land
• Dive for a boost in the air, or to help you change direction
• Don’t waste your time chasing enemies to a hoop they’re certain to capture
