Donut County

Perfect mix of top-notch visual design, humorous story and fun gameplay. Great music too!
So satisfying to wreck havoc with advanced hole technology.

It's a (w)hole package deal.
This is now one of my favourite games of all time!

This game is one of my favorates! It's simple, but that's what I love about it. All the characters are memrable and seem real. I really enjoy the game play of just being a sink hole swollowing everything up.

This is a nice puzzle game. I've seen several people talking about it on Reddit and Steam, and so I put it on my wishlist. Today there was a big sale on it, so I had to try it. Fun little storytime, with small tasks and easy to get 100 achievements in it if that's what you're after when you play. Buy it on sale (right now it 70% off), and you'll have entertainment for an hour or 2 :) I like it!

Donut County is a quirky, charming puzzle game where you control a hole in the ground that swallows everything in sight. The story is funny, the art is adorable, and the physics-based gameplay is surprisingly satisfying. It’s short (about 3 hours), but sweet — perfect for a chill evening.

🕳️💥 10/10 would swallow a whole town again and make hangout with RACOOONS.

Adorable short little experience, perfect for enjoying after a long day at work. The total playtime is probably only about 1.5 hours, but I don't think that's the right way to judge how good of a value a game is. I happily pay anything under $10 for this game, definitely worth picking up on sale.

You can beat it in an afternoon, you can get a quadcopter! You can throw everyone's garbage in a hole because they probably don't need it anyways.

This is a simple game that evokes the same sort of simple joy of Katamari but without having to rewire your brain to control using two thumbsticks at the same time.

Bought on sale ay 70% off, definitely a good use of 4 bucks. Would also be a good use of 13 bucks if you arent on a budget.

Having finished some puzzle games recently, my brain a little tired, I wanted to play something short and sweet, something fun and maybe a little quirky. I had this game in mind and I think it was a good choice.

The story and characters in this game are just a bit of fun. This game doesn't take itself seriously at all and I enjoyed it's style of humour.

The actual gameplay is extremely simple, but is most definitely satisfying to play. There isn't really much else to say about it, there is just something enjoyable about working your way up to sinking an entire building, or getting something to fall through just the way you want it to.

It's quite a short game, as it only takes a few hours, and getting all the achievements doesn't add on that much time seeing as there's a very helpful level select.
If you don't want to invest a lot of time in a new game, or just want to kill a bit of time, this is a cute and fun choice.

In terms of achievements, there are a fair few missable ones, but they are pretty straightforward to get, minus a few secret ones you might need to peak at a guide for.

Overall this game was cute, the art style is nice, the humour is quite fun, the characters are silly and the sinkhole mechanic is satisfying. I would definitely play this again in future for something quirky between more serious games.

This game was awesome to play through! I loved the style of the game and how fluid everything felt! I recommend you pick this up when it goes on sale!

A game with so little challenge isn't my usual preference, but it's so damn charming that I can't help but enjoy my time. If you want a quirky puzzle (?) game then check this out.

My 4yo son asks me to play the Donut Game every single day. We can't find other games to play because looking is time we could have spent playing the Donut Game. We've seen everything there is to see from the Donut Game a dozen times over.

I never want to play the Donut Game ever again. I crave release from the Donut Game.

A spin on Katamari where your object is not a ball but a hole growing in size as you collect things. While I would have wished to be just a tiny bit more challenged here and there (of course this game isn't meant to be hard anyways), I did enjoy my time with it, and there were enough funny ideas to make it feel like there was a reason for every new level, there was always some new idea. Didn't overstay its welcome with the 90 minute playtime.
Very enjoyable, can only recommend if you have an evening to kill.

Ok here me out. You can get THOUSANDS of hole swallow games on mobile for free. But by god this game is 100x better than any other hole game! play it.

Donut County is a story, and it traps you in with it's unique art design and easy controls. Doesn't take super long to 100% game, but I will be playing again soon!

A fun, short game with about 2-3 hours of content.
It reminds me of Katamari Damacy, only without the craziness and time limits. You can take your time as you go through each story chapter and enjoy the little variations on the base game mechanic.

Very, very cozy! The UI, false XP bar, and other elements (in the "boss battle" especially) that pretend to be a different style of video game are extremely amusing, which is just one of the many good examples of Donut County's comedic stylings. The item descriptions, dialogue, and even the inappropriately cozy music on top of wanton destruction serve to make this game so lovably laughable.

I can only think to describe the dialogue as "incredibly modern" (think... idk, Adventure Time maybe?) but in a way that whoever is writing it clearly understands what is being said and how, unlike so many writers who are still sharing L33T5P34K guides on Facebook.

My only gripe is on the 405 when I accidentally gave the camera back to one of the raccoons stuck on the balloon, making it irretrievable. I had to look up a walkthrough to know I even screwed up! Ah, but restarting just that level was easy enough. I just wish I didn't have to go through that initial confusion in the first place.

Just such a great little game.
Not the longest; but me and my 5 year old have already replayed it 3 times!
Easy controls, cute story, great music and lots of humour.
Not the most challenging puzzles if that’s what you’re after, but enough to leave you thinking for a bit with some of the harder ones.

It’s an enjoyable game with a nice art style and a fun story. However, I might only recommend it if you’re a trophy hunter or if it has a discount available. You can 100% it in two hours or less, so it really depends on what you are looking for.

I bought this game during a spring sale and 100%ed it quickly. It's worth the price. Very fun game, the writing is really good and the gameplay is nice too. Only issue is its a bit short but its fine

This is a very short and cute game. You know those annoying mobile game ads of the hole that swallows things up and gets bigger? This is what that promises without the ads and micro-transactions.

If you want something chill, this does that.

such a cute game honestly, it was fun getting all the achievements!

So, you're a raccoon with an ability to control a hole. That's right! You control a not-so-bottomless pit and start swallowing everything: trash, animals, cars, buildings... even your friends. Total chaos. The game's main message? "Be a hole." Inspirational. Never thought I'd emotionally connect with being a hole, but here we are. 10/10, would ruin a town again xD.

This game is cute and enjoyable, I loved it. Wish it had more levels.

Very fun and amusing little cozy game. Only wish it went on a little longer. Still worth the money if it's on sale though.

I personally think this game is really, REALLY weird and I don't understand or care about the storyline in the least; however, it's a fun game for my 5-year-old to play since all you have to do is move a mouse around and stuff falls into a hole. He calls it "Donut Counting."

I can't recommend this game enough. It's so simple yet somehow implements neat mini-puzzles into its levels.

Extremely cute little game, has some of the dumbest yet greatest dialogue in any game

I love donuts

I simple cozy game. The puzzles are kind of physics based. I'd recommend it for kids, maybe 8-12 yrs. The story was mildly entertaining and written with humor. I finished the game in just under 2 hrs and won't replay for the achievements.

Haven't laughed and smiled from a game so much in awhile. This game is adorable

it's a really cute fun game to be honest. actually it really is a calming game. to have a calming and serialized game is crazy. anyways donut county my beloved and whatnot. also thats all i got for this review atm

Interesting concept that isn't too drawn out. But it could have tried to experiment with it some more.

Nice to look at and to listen to but a bit too short. Best to get it on discount

This game is extremely weird and cute. The soundtrack, the derpy graphics, the weird characters, just amazing. My only little complain was I wish it was longer. If you love Katamari Damacy, it's a bit like the reverse version of that. Very fun, very silly. Thanks for the great game guys! One of my favorites in a while. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. Very worth the buy.

Lighthearted game. Any "puzzles" it has are pretty simple, and my kids (all <7 years old) enjoy playing it and can beat the whole game. They always have fun with it. The only issue they have is the final boss, which just requires enough mildly precise inputs in a row, and losing resets the fight, that they know how to beat it but can't execute it themselves just yet. They still have a great time, and I'd recommend for young kids.

Love the style, the story and the game play. Just overall a fun game.

Very charming little gaming. Picked this up when it was on sale, (I'd recommend doing the same) very short but absolutely love the writing and the gameplay is great!

Donut County definitely has a casual vibe. The character interaction is humorous and enjoyable. The game play was fun and afforded some thought and how to accomplish levels. As a rather inexperienced player, I enjoied the opportunity to get some breaks on the harder levels if needed. While rather short, I still recommend this game.

Honestly just boring.

Firstly too much dialogue and not enough eating people.
Secondly the dialogue was mostly just uninteresting.

One moment where everyone laughs at the homeless guy was kinda funny though.

Hole.io mechanics but as a story driven puzzle game. Pretty decent, easy to 100%

Short but sweet and charming, reminds me of Katamari Damacy in terms of art style and game play. It has a fun sense of humor. I'd support a longer sequel with more complex puzzles

Short and simple, but incredibly entertaining. This game knew exactly what it wanted to be and ran with it. Sometimes the physics get a little wonky, and there are some levels I felt were too easy, but when there are moments where you just park your hole in the middle of the road and watch as a huge traffic jam of cars drives straight into it, there's no way I can be mad about the shortcomings. Pick this one up if you catch it on sale.

donut county was a super cute game and id highly recommend it to any fans of cozy games! if youve ever seen those ads for games where youre a hole and you go around “eating” stuff to get bigger, thats basically donut county. however, donut county actually has a story to it!

the majority of the story is told from below donut county. the vast majority of the county is in a pit below donut county. theres a varied cast of animal critters (plus mira the human) that detail what led up to them falling into the pit. pretty much everything is bk the raccoon’s fault, as hes just been absorbing donut county into the pit. because as raccoons do, he enjoys trash and chaos.

i will say, theres a few really minor issues that dont impact the gameplay all that much. when you control the hole, its size is a bit misleading. due to the camera angle, the hole often looks smaller than it actually is, so you may underestimate what you can actually pick up. but you can easily figure that out by just wiggling around to pick up stuff. another issue is that some objects dont easily fit into the hole. the really big items, like rocks and buildings often get stuck and you have to aggressively wiggle to force them in. the hole also lags behind your cursor a little bit, which isnt too noticeable or impactful until the boss fight at the end of the game when you have to dodge projectiles. the only other issue i encountered was on the chicken barn after unlocking the catapult. the level didnt progress after breaking the necessary box, but a quick level reset fixed the issue.

overall, i really enjoyed playing donut county and getting all the achievements. donut county is a great cozy game and the boss fight isnt too difficult and its very generous in terms of your health. i will say $13 USD is a bit pricey for the relatively simple gameplay that donut county offers, but its great to snag while on sale.

A cute and quick little experience where you play as a dastardly raccoon and destroy a town. Took a little under six hours to 100% the game and while I did enjoy it I'd ultimately recommend waiting for a good sale before you buy.

Enjoyable for one very short playthrough, but there is not much going on in this game.
The gameplay loop is very simple, the puzzle elements don't require much thinking and the humor was, for the most part... not for me.
Consider buying at a discount.

It is a fun relaxing game to play through enjoy, and easy 100% achievements

11/10

w game. real nice simple game to throw on and relax to. become hole. eat everyone home. fun game. buy when on sale.

the best way i can describe this one is "adorable". it's really short, but out of every game i've ever played, this is the one i can most tell was made with love. there's not really a way a game like this can be "hard", but the gimmicks put in each level are fresh and clever and somehow, putting stuff in a hole didn't get old. definitely worth a shot :)

Was ok. Observed this game in some videos previously and from time to time was popped in my Steam List. Now that I saw it on sale I decided to buy it and give it a go.

The whole game is a basic idea in which you control a donut hole, and absorb everything through it. The more absorb the bigger it gets. It starts very simple and then it becomes more interesting and more interactive. Later you have to interact with some objects in the game to activate devices that allow your hole to become bigger. Unfortunately when things become interesting in term of gameplay that's when the game also ends.
Was hoping for more interactions and more complex puzzles.

It's a small game. Finished in just about 2 hours. 30 more minutes to 100% all the achievments.
Buy it on sale. The standard asking price is too steep.
The game can also be played on Mobile Phones by purchasing it from the subsequent store. It feels and plays like a mobile game.
Many may say that this game should have been free.

So. It IS fun. It IS good. It IS pretty easy to beat the game in 77 minutes flat. I snagged it on sale and don't feel like I wasted my money, but if I had paid more I think I would have.

I enjoyed this. Quite relaxing, but a little short. Some of the minor puzzles were interesting but not very taxing.
Took 2 hours to complete, and the story was a little bit tedious so I skipped a lot of it.
Got this when it was on sale at 70% off. I would have been very disappointed if I had paid the full price.

Really good and cute puzzle game. It is truly a great game but buy it on sale as it isn’t very long and doesn’t really have reply value. Thoroughly enjoyed this and played wonderfully on the Steam Deck as-well! 🦝 🍩
