Review Trost 2/5 · Jul 3, 2026 Abandoned

I liked Katamari games and this looked similar. But it turned out too repetitive.

Donut County

This is a pretty charming and simple game. There's not too much to the puzzle solving of sucking up things into a hole, however, the little animal creatures are charming. It's very short, 1-2 hours, so I would recommend it on a sale.

Cute little "sit back on the couch and relax" kind of game.

Gameplay is super simple, but the story is a lot of fun. The game itself gets pretty repetitive pretty quickly, but the story makes you want to play longer. In about 2 hours you can go through the whole story. It feels like this game wasn't made to be reviewed, because it clearly aims to be just a short distraction …

Gameplay is super simple, but the story is a lot of fun. The game itself gets pretty repetitive pretty quickly, but the story makes you want to play longer. In about 2 hours you can go through the whole story. It feels like this game wasn't made to be reviewed, because it clearly aims to be just a short distraction from AAA titles. I loved the art-style, the game had enough mechanic twists to keep me interested (although I think it still has much more potential), and despite the hit-or-miss dialogue, on the whole, it was fun.

My favourite kind of game - WEIRD

Donut County is a very, very short-lived experience but clearly purposefully so. How much can you a play a sinkhole that simply sucks everything anyway?

Donut County brings its own charm albeit weird af, ingeniously simple and addictive.

THE MUSIC SLAPS. Honestly one of the best parts about the game is the Quack Anthem that plays at the end of each level completion. You'll be done with a platinum in 3 hours.

I can't stop playing

This game is short but so so sweet. Its like katamari but without the annoying controls and the same amount of satisfaction for grabbing random stuff. I really love the premise - its smart, cute, simple, and to the point. I like that the puzzles seamlessly nudged themselves into each of the levels and made the game more than just …

This game is short but so so sweet. Its like katamari but without the annoying controls and the same amount of satisfaction for grabbing random stuff. I really love the premise - its smart, cute, simple, and to the point. I like that the puzzles seamlessly nudged themselves into each of the levels and made the game more than just collecting random things mindlessly into a giant hole. I enjoyed the characters and thought it was just funny overall. I've beaten it twice now because I enjoy playing it that much.

Review LuccaCardoso 4/5 · Oct 25, 2018

Donut County is a very pleasant and fun experience, that was undoubtedly a labour of love from its creator. Some flaws, though, prevent it from being an excellent game.
