About

What the Golf? (2019) is a physics-based golf parody that completely reinvents the sport with absurd and creative course designs. Rather than traditional golf, each level presents wildly different challenges—from launching cars to controlling entire planets—making it more about hilarious experimentation than skill. The game's silly premise and surprise mechanics have earned it a solid 73/100 rating for its inventive approach to the genre.

What the Golf? is extremely accessible from a performance standpoint, requiring minimal GPU power to run smoothly. With just 2 GB of RAM and modest system requirements, you can expect consistent 60+ FPS on virtually any modern graphics card, even integrated GPUs. The game's colorful, stylized graphics mean you don't need high-end hardware to enjoy it at maximum settings, making it perfect for benchmarking baseline performance or testing older systems.

If you enjoy quirky indie games with creative humor, What the Golf? is definitely worth playing. The clever course design and ridiculous physics make it an entertaining experience, though it's more about laughs than competitive challenge.

Performance profile

September 2019 release. What the Golf? was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.

Simulation titles like What the Golf? are heavily CPU-dependent — physics, AI and world state dominate the frame budget. Prioritise a CPU with strong single-thread performance and fast RAM over raw GPU power.

Extremely light — What the Golf? runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

The golf game for people who hate golf! A silly physics-based anti-golf game where you get to golf anything. Every golf course is a new surprising type of golf, some brilliant or hilarious, others so absurd they will make you go: WHAT THE GOLF? Golf is always the same: perfectly round balls, 18 holes, blue sky, neatly cut grass and fancy people in nice clothes. What's not to hate? – Hate no more!
