    This is a beautifully crafted game, brimming with charm and humour. The downside is that the whole thing is quite short, I fully completed the game and got the platinum in about 3hrs.

    If you want a game that is original, funny and perfectly crafted then pick this up and enjoy, if the limited runtime is an issue then skip.

    Played through it and immediately started telling all my friends to give it a go. Clocking in at 2 hours, the game is such a cathartic experience. I bought the ost on vinyl too because this soundtrack is too good to not jam to (Raccoon House Music slaps). It’s been getting harder for me to finish games so have a fun tailored experience like Donut County is really what I needed.

    I really enjoyed this game, but it was much too short. I was actually shocked when it ended because I assumed there would be 100 levels! Even though I completed the game in what felt like 2 hours it was a fun little experience. Wouldn't pay more than $20 for this quickie though.

    I recommend this game to people who feel sick. A simple relaxing game that doesn't need lightning-fast reflexes. You could finish this in a couple of hours. Very cute

    I’m only giving it an 8 because the game was hilarious, unique, and fun to play....but there should of been a lot note content and should of gone a little deeper
    Otherwise, y’all made me laugh my socks off.

    A funny and easy game. Nice characters, excellent and silly plot. Maybe short, but you if you want to play something funny and happy, this game is for you. The raccoon have a tablet with an app to make holes, and you’re the hole and your mission is to eat all, since flowers to buildings. The game have some puzzles and you can finish in a pair of hours (It took to me me several days becauseA funny and easy game. Nice characters, excellent and silly plot.

Easy platinum and I can’t recommend it enough. In one word: Nice. Try it if you can !!! Expand

    Does exactly what it tells you it's gonna do. You're gonna form little holes that get bigger and bigger every time it swallows something. You play as a mischievous little raccoon that just can't stop itself from wrecking havoc for two hours. It's a really enjoyable and fun while it lasts but just as the game ends, you end up wanting more

    Beautiful, simplistic and charming game that had a good sense of humour about itself. Very enjoyable experience and was surprised with what the developer managed to pull off in the end mechanically speaking. The art style sold me on the game alone but it was it's charm and fun that really made this such an enjoyable silly experience.

    Short, very simple game - move the hole, and let things fall in it. Quite relaxing, though not too exciting gameconcept. The game is pretty short, still, the gameplay mechanics started to get a bit old already.

    The game's humor is however excellent, had quite a few laughs, and that made me want to keep playing.

    What a lovely little game! Finished the whole story and beat all the achievements in about 3 hours, but it was super fun!

    Com certeza é um excelente jogo de puzzles. Eu realmente me diverti muito jogando. Apesar de serem puzzles tecnicamente fáceis, a história é interessante e faz você querer prosseguir para saber o desfecho.

    A non-sense indie arcade game that recalls Katamari Damacy's gameplay style but falls too short to be remembered.

    You’ll see everything Donut County has to offer in the few hours it takes to finish. Like a doughnut: short but sweet. [Issue#154, p.97]

    Donut County is short. It has little to no replay value. It feels like it squanders a great deal of its potential. And yet, Donut County is still one of the best games I’ve played this year. You may only get a few hours out of Donut County, but they’re a few great hours.
