A "whimsical physics" game in which players have control over a magical hole.
Overview
Donut County is a comedic physics-puzzle game developed by Ben Esposito (Company) and published digitally by Annapurna Interactive (Company) for the PlayStation 4 (Platform), PC (Platform), Mac (Platform), Apple TV (Platform), and iOS devices on August 28, 2018, with Xbox One (Platform) and Nintendo Switch (Platform) releases on December 18, 2018 and an Android release on December 1, 2020. The PS4 and Switch versions also received a retail releases on June 2019 and April 2020, respectively.
Based on a fake game pitch of a "reverse Katamari" and described by the developer as a "whimsical physics toy", Donut County has players guiding a hole around on the ground, which progressively gets wider as it swallows up everything it can. While most of the game involves trying to fit objects into the hole, each level has their own unique puzzle elements, such as using the hole to knock objects around, or fling objects up to knock others over.
The game's story is initially told through a series of flashbacks involving the residents of the eponymous Donut County, who are trapped deep underground after being swallowed up by holes (due to the raccoon BK scheduling donut deliveries, not knowing that it's delivering holes instead). Along with his human friend Mira, BK must find a way to return the residents back up to the surface.
