Critic Reviews for Donut County

IGN

7.8 / 10.0

It may be a very short diversion, but Donut County is a delight. It's absolutely brimming with personality, has a killer soundtrack and visual aesthetic, and is based on an irresistible gameplay hook. I'd have loved more, but I guess I'll just settle for playing through it again.

Short and simple, Donut County is absolutely sublime.

Donut County is a short, entertaining tale of a trash panda who just wants a sweet quadcopter.

Donut County has a great art style, hilarious writing, and unique gameplay, but it's too short and its gameplay never evolves far beyond its core concept.

The perfect way to pass a couple of hours, but it will leave you craving more game and a box of Krispy Kremes.

Donut County is as simple as it is charming, and the story conceit pulling you along is light and enjoyable

Donut County is high on charm but short on substance; a game about holes that doesn't quite feel whole.

Donut County presents a simple concept to players: collect objects to make a hole larger until the entire stage is clear. Done poorly, no one would remember the experience whatsoever. Developer Ben Esposito turns something mechanically simplistic into a joy via smart design. The adorable world inhabited by colorful characters is something we desperately need more of in games. Donut County might not be a long experience, but it's one that players can't help but cherish.
