It tested both my precision and reflexes at the end of a game that was pretty relaxed. I will say that the final level gave me some trouble, as it consisted of fast-paced action instead of thoughtful puzzles. I don’t want to reveal too much more about the game, as the fun is in the discovery.

But if you’re in too much of a rush to get to the next area, the game saves them all for you to peruse at your own leisure. For instance, the description for “Fast Food Tray” is “free sled.” And a “Camping Tent” is a “fake house that’s easy to steal from.” I highly recommend reading through them all after each level. But each item has a silly description that often made me smirk or outright laugh. Normally, it might not be so noteworthy that you collected a bunch of rocks, chickens, cacti, or cinderblocks. One of the highlights for me was the Trashopedia, which keeps track of all the items you’ve consumed. Once you’ve experienced all the characters’ stories, you then follow Mira and BK as they try to save everyone and undo all the damage they caused. But the mechanics evolve with each level. You need to consume the smallest objects first to make you grow so you can eat up bigger and bigger objects until everything is gone…or at least underground. We then hear each of the townsfolk explain what happened when they ordered a donut, and you get to relive the event as the hole itself! Things start off pretty basic, just swiping and using the whole screen as a joystick to move the hole around. Mira’s not too happy with him, but it’s hard to get mad at such a lovable raccoon. Next, we fast-forward a few weeks and we find out that the entire town is underground! BK wanted a quadcopter, which he could only get by delivering enough “donuts” to get to level 10. You play as the hole, and your first is to get rid of that pesky honker…who also seems to be a legitimate donut delivery person? How curious! And it consumes everything in its path, sucking it underground.

People can order one of those round, universally adored pastries through their app and he delivers it. See, BK runs a donut shop in Donut County.

But I’m not sure I would go to the lengths BK did to stop it. I can totally relate, as city noises are constantly interrupting both my days and my nights. You start off as Mira, texting her raccoon friend, BK, about an annoying honking dude who woke her up.
