About Golftacular!
Golftacular! is a chaotic reimagining of mini-golf from developer Both Good, released November 18, 2025. It’s an indie sport game that throws out traditional golf rules in favor of slapstick absurdity. Players use over-the-top items like rocket launchers, banana peels, and explosive golf clubs to navigate wacky courses. The PC and Mac version features single-player and multiplayer modes, letting you play solo or with friends. The game’s charm comes from its ridiculous physics and intentionally broken mechanics, think of it as golf as a party trick. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when golf gets a slapstick comedy reboot, this is it.
Gameplay
Each round is a mess of trial and error. You pick up a golf club, but instead of swinging normally, you might fire a cannonball or summon a tornado to carry the ball toward the hole. The core loop involves spamming items to bypass obstacles like bottomless pits or moving platforms. Controls are basic, left click to swing, right click to use items, but execution is clunky. Multiplayer matches are competitive chaos, with players using power-ups to disrupt opponents. Courses change dynamically, forcing you to adapt. Sessions often end in frustration or laughter, depending on how many times you accidentally launch your ball into the sky. It’s not about skill; it’s about hijinks.
What Players Think
The PlayPile community averages 4.1/5 stars, with 88% positive reviews. 67% of players complete the game, averaging 8 hours of playtime. Top moods are “chaotic” (82%) and “addictive” (79%), but 21% call it “frustrating.” A user wrote, “Half the time I’m crying, the other half I’m laughing, every session is a rollercoaster.” Multiplayer is the standout feature, with 92% of players hitting the 1.5-hour average session. Critics praise the creativity but note repetitive level design. Achievements are doable (83% completion), though 12% give up on the final “Win a Tournament” goal. The $19.99 price tag is seen as fair for the absurdity.
PlayPile's Take
Golftacular! is a niche pick for fans of goofy sports hybrids and party games. It’s not a deep golf simulator but thrives on its intentional silliness. The $20 price is reasonable for a game that’s more about shared laughter than skill. Achievements are light, so don’t expect a grind. If you crave random physics and multiplayer shenanigans over polish, this is for you. Skip it if you want traditional golf or take games too seriously. It’s a 10-hour joke with a few memorable rounds.
