What we've been playing

12th of August, 2022

Hello! Welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we’ve found ourselves playing over the last few days. This time: donuts, imps, and stealth Destiny.

If you fancy catching up on some of the older editions of What We’ve Been Playing, here’s our archive.

Donut County, Xbox

Donut County is a game about controlling a sink hole. You move around encouraging parts of the landscape to fall into it, and over time the hole gets bigger so you can encourage bigger things to fall into it.

This is deeply pleasing. Donut County obeys the Katamari rules of escalation – incrementally you get to work on a bigger scale, so while you start with rocks and grass and tins, by the end you’re swallowing the Griffith Park Observatory.
