They call it an Antique store, although it has had many names over the years. A Curiosity Shop, The Wunderkammer. I remember a time before this shop even existed, before the antiques were even created. The people who work at this store are less than children to me, insignificant. I will still be here when they are dead beneath the soil, or ashes in a pot somewhere. Humans are ephemeral, I go on. I am tarnished now, you can barely even see the shadow of a reflection in me. Part of me hopes that means the spell is wearing off, that one day I will simply be no more. The other, more intelligent part of me thinks it’s just because no one knows how to take proper care of a mirror these days. The Queen used to have her servants clean me daily with soft cloths that tickled and polish that stung in a good way. Like how men say aftershave feels.

Donut County is a quirky single player Indie game. You primarily play as a raccoon called BK who has used a hole-making app to sink everyone underground. The story is mostly told in flashback, with everyone already stuck underground. The main objective is to use the holes to swallow objects. The holes grow larger every time you swallow something until you are able to swallow whole buildings.

There is humorous dialogue between scenes from the Donut County residents trapped underground. This game is suitable for c
