A golf game that keeps changing the rules
WHAT THE GOLF? is a physics-based comedy game built around golf only in name. Each course hands you a new twist on the idea, so a hole might involve toasters, hot dogs, office chairs or any other random object instead of a ball and a club. The store text calls it a game with puzzles, challenges and loads of surprises, and levels like Sporty Sports!, It's Snowtime and A Hole New World show how far it strays from anything you would recognise on a real course. Expect the goal, the object you hit and the way it moves to shift constantly, which is the whole joke.
Playing it with friends
The game lists Steam Remote Play Together as a supported feature, so you can share your screen with a friend and spread the chaos between you. That is the route for a group session: one person runs the game, others join over the shared screen, and everyone reacts to whatever absurd level comes up next. The tone is anarchic rather than competitive, so the fun comes from watching the levels fall apart in unexpected ways rather than from chasing a serious score.
What to know before starting
It is tagged as a singleplayer game, so there is no built-in multiplayer mode beyond the Remote Play Together screen sharing. The game is openly made for people who dislike golf, by people who admit they have no respect for the sport, so anyone expecting a realistic simulation should look elsewhere. Alongside the main levels there is a level editor for building your own silly stages and putting them out into the world, plus daily courses with prizes described as more or less useful. The difficulty comes from puzzles and surprises rather than from mastering a swing, and the constant rule changes are the point: if a level stops making sense, that is working as intended.
