Playing a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/fallguys\/fall-guys-all-modes-minigames-levels\">series of minigames<\/a> with the aim to be the last jellybean standing at the end of it all, there&rsquo;s a lot to learn if you want to be the best. Here&rsquo;s how to win at The Whirlygig.<\/p>\n<p>How to win The Whirlygig<\/p>\n<p>True to its name, The Whirlygig is a round dedicated to twirling, whirling obstacles. This is a race level in three parts, with a series of propellers running across the centre of the stage.<\/p>\n<div data-oembed-url=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=xNqmWK595i4\">\n<div style=\"left: 0; width: 100%; height: 0; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%;\"><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xNqmWK595i4?rel=0\" style=\"border: 0; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;\" tabindex=\"-1\" srcdoc=\"&lt;style&gt;*{padding:0;margin:0;overflow:hidden}html,body{height:100%}img,span{position:absolute;width:100%;top:0;bottom:0;margin:auto}span{height:1.5em;text-align:center;font:48px\/1.5 sans-serif;color:white;text-shadow:0 0 0.5em black}&lt;\/style&gt;&lt;a href=https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xNqmWK595i4?autoplay=1&gt;&lt;img src=https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/xNqmWK595i4\/hqdefault.jpg alt='YouTube video thumbnail'&gt;&lt;span&gt;&#9654;&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>To begin the race, Fall Guys must leap over a series of rotating bars. Some fans have worked out, however, that being hit from behind by these spinning obstacles can lead to being propelled forwards at a fast speed, but this is a risky move that could well lead to you being sent off in an unanticipated direction. Still, pull it off and the time saved is worth the risk.<\/p>\n<p>Next up is the propeller zone, which players can access by either leaping to a large yellow block and jumping onto the platform, or by jumping and pulling themselves up directly with the grab button. If the yellow blocks are too crowded, grabbing the edge becomes a quicker solution.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Whirlygigs Fall Guys guide how to beat whirlygigs\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/jMuyqIDnFFQB6C69JQ53Mv0nh-g_ZDb1QAJnMqkaN-g\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzL0FuZHIlQzMlQTlzL0ZhbGxfZ3V5c193aGlybHlnaWcuanBn\" style=\"width: 600px; height: 338px;\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size:11px;\">(Picture: YouTube)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dodge the propellers and you&rsquo;re onto the final section of the race &#8211; and the one that causes the most issues. There are three paths to take here. On your left and right, players will be leaping over more rotating bars.
