Donut County Review
Donut County is the game that I didn't know I needed but it certainly filled that hole in my heart.
There are many things you can be in video games, however ever expanding sinkhole wasn't something that would have never crossed my mind and that's exactly what you play as in Donut County. Essentially, you control a hole in the ground, swallowing up the world and it's inhabitants around you.
The game's plot primarily revolves around a human named Mira and her raccoon ftiend, BK who are trapped underground with many of the residents of Donut County, who all got swallowed up by the sink hole shortly after ordering a donut via an app. The story goes back and forth, where the residents and Mira recount the moments before they were sucked through the sink hole, which you ultimately play out as the level.
Each level is self contained within Donut County and starting off as a small, inferior hole, sucking up small things such as rocks and patches of grass before it gets big enough to swallow vehicles to even whole buildings. Ontop of that, there will also be moments where you have to solve various puzzles, which could be anything from getting rid of water in your sink hole to even trying to get a hot air balloon off of the ground.
Yet despite every level having the same goal of consuming utterly everything in the world, it's not repetative or boring. If anything, I got excited to play every single level, looking forward to seeing what I'll be guzzling up next!
As for the story, personally I loved it. Just the way that all the characters interacted with eachother was humourous and sometimes relatable. Mira and BK seemingly have a rather laid back, rip-on eachother type of friendship, which I'm sure alot of people can relate to. Even the side characters were bursting with plenty of relatable personality, where the dialogue is quite cleverly put together and fun to read.
In regards to the graphics and art style, personally, I'm not the biggest fan, however I will say for the premise of the story and gameplay, it matches it very well. Overall the game is fun and I do rate it very highly. My only (very small), complaint is that it's not longer as I completed this game in a mere few hours, but I guess thats the case when you're always having fun!
