Donut County is a story-based physics puzzle game where you play as an ever-growing hole in the ground. Meet cute characters, steal their trash, and throw them in a hole.

About the story

Raccoons have taken over Donut County with remote-controlled trash-stealing holes. You play as BK, a hole-driving raccoon who swallows up his friends and their homes to earn idiotic prizes. When BK falls into one of his own holes, he’s confronted by his best friend Mira and the residents of Donut County, who are all stuck 999 feet underground… and they demand answers!

Luckily, I managed to find enough time to blow through Donut County after seeing multiple Steam reviewers compare Rain on Your Parade to it. Untitled Goose Game, Donut County, and Rain on Your Parade serve as a kind of cutesy meme-game trinity, though there’s a clear hierarchy. Donut County falls between the okayish but massively overhyped goose game and the more varied and creative Rain on Your Parade.

Donut County is simple and very attractive, available everywhere, if you want you will have it. Donut County is a fast but wildly satisfying, and even Machiavellian, experience. Controlling a hole that swallows everything from simple weeds to motorway caravans is something you have to try at some point in your life. From children who are learning to handle a tablet to those retirees who with COVID no longer have so many works to observe and criticize, everyone fits here, the hole is generous.

Overall, Donut County is an absolutely wonderful time all the way through with a few surprising twists thrown at you. From the first hole to the final part of the game and even the end credits, Donut County will stay as one of the most memorable and original games I’ve played and thoroughly enjoyed from beginning to end.

t’s cute. It’s endearing and somewhat simple. If you are looking for a short, relaxing and visually pleasing game then Donut County is one to try. The humour is on point and the short intermezzo’s of story between levels means both story and gameplay never overstay their welcome. The game isn’t exactly a long affair though, around an hour and 45 minutes long. So, want something short and refreshing to play between the longer games or service titles you’ve been playing lately? Give Donut County a try.

At most Donut County will offer a good 3-4 hours of solid gameplay that is light-hearted and enjoyable. The game flags as slightly too easy to breeze through, but in terms of the fun gameplay in creating havoc with holes in the ground, I would definitely recommend picking this up for a session one night.
