Playing this game feels like your at a casino. Every time you move the golf ball, it fells like there's a 40% chance something bad will happen. It feels like a guessing game. Also, if you plan on 100%-ing this game, be prepared to spend like triple the amount of money you planned on spending, because there are a few maps that require a DLC. That's already kind of stupid, if you buy a game, you should have all of the …

Golf With Your Friends is one of those games that exists for one reason only: chaos. On paper, it’s just mini golf. Simple maps, simple controls, get the ball in the hole. In reality, it turns into pure anarchy the moment you add friends. Someone is always bumping your ball mid-shot, someone is stuck upside down, and someone is taking five minutes to line up a shot just to completely miss. The physics are janky in …

I bought this thinking it would be a chill little golf game to relax with my friends. So obviously I turned collision on and messed with the gravity. That was the moment it stopped being Golf with Friends and became Golf with Enemies. Nothing brings people closer than hearing your friends scream on Discord because you accidentally on purpose knocked their ball across the map. We were crying laughing the whole time, …

Super fun game! It's amazing to be able to create a private lobby to play with my long distance friends! Pros: -Can create custom game modes; edit how many rounds, if you can hit other players, can change the time restriction, etc. -Lots of customization for your ball; hats, floaties, and more. -Hours of gameplay (see my 120+ hours of play at the time of this review) Cons: -Some content locked behind a paywall. …

Golf With Your Friends is one of those games that's simple to pick up but incredibly fun with the right group. The creative courses, crazy obstacles, and unpredictable physics turn every round into a mix of laughter and friendly rivalry. It's easy to lose track of time while trying to beat your friends or watching someone throw away a perfect score with one bad shot. That said, the game can feel repetitive if you're …

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Golf with your Friends quickly becomes Golf with your Enemies. Friends are not included. Warning: Friends not included i have no friends Bought game expected to play with friends, but sadly no friends :( Still fun with randoms tho very chill game if you need a break and the matches are pretty short. The main downsides to the game is that if somebody is hacking/cheating the entire game will glitch and will destroy the map. TL:TR Fun chill game but you don't get auto friends. :( 멀티하면 무난히 꿀잼…

neutral · AI labelView post →The developers keep changing the physics, making some courses near impossible to complete on par or under (looking at you candyland hole 9 and oasis hole 16). Also they put random numbers for par which are not possible to get unless you know some obscure pixel perfect shot that, most likely, is going to get patched out making getting under par impossible The game sometimes messes up when you're in a multiplayer lobby, everyone else was playing on the deep while I was somehow on candyland,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am generally much better at this game than "my friends", as the title suggests they are. I'd think it more appropriate to call it Golf with your Inferiors, or maybe Golf with your Subordinates. But alas, it is top notch golf. I think someone should build these courses in REAL LIFE!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →my favorite way to play this game is to turn the penalty up to 50 and then add randomized ball shape/size and just go insane. it really takes the anger you have for the game and makes it so bad it loops around to being funny. don't listen to those other reviews dev team I love you. God bless.

neutral · AI labelView post →After 6 hours of intensive field research, I can confidently state that *Golf With Your Friends* is less a recreational pastime and more a condensed study of human collapse under pressure. In this relatively short yet profoundly transformative period, I have witnessed the complete lifecycle of trust: its formation, its weaponization, and its inevitable destruction at the hands of a “friend” who insists on enabling collision at the worst possible moment. The game presents itself as golf,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is hell to play, I've never felt more rage and fury towards a person more while playing this game. This game can genuinely make you tear your monitor AND pc apart. Don't play this game if you wanna have fun.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The physics feel frustratingly inconsistent and unreliable. Hockey mode is especially buggy, but even standard golf suffers from clipping through tracks, bouncing off invisible objects, and tiny elevation seams that make supposedly flat surfaces unpredictable. These issues regularly undermine the game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i unironically have never replicated the rage i feel specifically on this game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →So much fun play it real time with friends! Sometimes it feels challenging but its okay, love it! Recommended! (8 of 10)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I cannot imagine playing this game solo. You will (without a shadow of a doubt) rage beyond what should be enjoyable when things don't go your way. The moment you can laugh at a friend going through the same thing turns it from anger into joy. My friends and I are having a blast with this one!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is great and awsome but Golf With Friends is, without exaggeration, one of the most infuriatingly designed multiplayer experiences ever disguised as a “fun little party game,” because the moment you load into a match you can practically feel the game preparing to slap you in the face with a golf club made of pure frustration. It pretends to be this cheerful, colourful, friendly little mini-golf adventure where you and your friends can laugh and have a good time, but in reality it’s…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Couch co-op is rare these days, but I would like to see more co-op in general. I used to have game nights on Friday night with friends on discord, but we just ran out of good games to play. Limiting factor being how many people can play at the same time. Most of the co-op games we have right now seem to be designed to make you miserable. You’re gonna fail, but how long can you last? I just want to have some fun with 2-6 friends without getting discouraged. One of the best ones we played was…

Lately, I've been playing Golf with Your Friends quite a lot with friends, and - not that I’m easily influenced - right now, I’m working on my first Velkyn minigame: Golf #gamedev

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Words cannot decribe how I feel about this game. Golf with your friend is an example of what all new games should do. This game brought me out of a deep depression and saved my life when I thought all was lost. I give Golf with your friends a 11/10 on the Bogroll McPeterson scale. <3

The game is really simple. You play 18 holes alternating between turns, lowest points win. We played it "split-screen" or shared-screen or whatever, on the Steam Deck with a controller connected, worked flawlessly. The base version of the game, which is the one we…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I first played this game back in the summer of 2016 on a friend's laptop during a trip to the USA. Back then, life felt simpler, and playing this with a good group of friends made for some unforgettable memories. Fascinated by that nostalgia and seeing it on sale, I finally bought it for my own Steam account a few days ago. The game itself is still the same fun mini-golf experience, but the reality of playing it today hits differently. If you have a solid group of friends to play with, this…

negative · AI labelView post →It's a fun golf game, with interesting level designs and simple controls. There is a very big map variety, and even different game modes that take a spin at the traditional golf game! The biggest matter is that, even though the game is called "Golf With Your Friends"... you can also play solo :) 8/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very fun & enjoyable game can be quite competitive especially when you are playing with mates and you both are aiming to get a hole in one before the other one does 😂😂 I would recommend this game to anyone who loves playing Golf then this is the game for you! 10/10 Best Golf Game Out There!!

The duck headpiece thing is pay to lose idc that i didnt even pay for it and the balls have a mind of their own and are only in this game to bring my downfall.

neutral · AI labelView post →This is the ultimate casual multiplayer game to load up when you just want to mess around with your buddies. The physics are arcadey and unpredictable, which only adds to the chaotic fun when you activate collision mode or random power-ups. With a massive variety of themed courses and a built-in level editor, there is a ton of content here to keep things fresh. Just don't go into it expecting a serious simulation; it’s built purely for laugh-out-loud moments and ruining friendships.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun to play, especially with a friend. even more fun with multiple friends.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →7. Golf With Your Friends Silly party co-op game that I've watched infinitely more let's plays of than I've played myself 😅 still a funny fun time when I do get to knock some balls around.
positive · AI labelView post →Good on Steam Deck. Having fun so far. Achievements seem easy enough, too. It's a fun game!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A Great game for a few hours for fun with friends, but past that you begin to see the lack of effort put in by the developers- no cross play, expensive DLC, and an achievement list that requires you to buy their low effort, ♥♥♥♥-stain DLC packs if you want to get the 100% on it. Truly: Golf, with your friends*
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Golf With Your Friends reminds me I have no friends every time I turn it on to play by myself. Other than that, it's a pretty good game. Somewhat frustrating sometimes and the little strength arrow is for some reason harder for me to judge than other golf games that use a moving gauge. Overall it's good for a few hours of entertainment and would probably be fun to play against friends if you have any.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Golf With Your Friends is a fun and casual mini-golf game. The courses are creative and sometimes challenging, and playing with friends adds a lot of laughs. However, the controls can feel a bit tricky at times, and occasional glitches can interrupt the fun. Overall, it’s enjoyable for short gaming sessions with friends.
