As the newest hires at the local bakery, you have been assigned to work with the hottest selling items - the donuts. Your job is twofold: to arrange the donuts in the display case, and to put together boxes to fulfill customer orders. You’ll also want to make an extra push to sell donuts with sprinkles and coffee, as these can earn you extra cash. Sell your delicious treats better than any of the other employees, and you’ll be walking home with the most money at the end of the day. In Donut Shop, players will be taking turns placing Donut Tiles in the Display Case, earning points based on how many donuts of the same type are connected. Players then have the opportunity to box groupings of donuts in the Display Case in order to fulfill customer requests from their Order Cards and earn extra money. Bonuses can also be earned from special orders for coffee donuts with sprinkles. At the end of the game, the player that has earned the most money from their donut placement and order fulfillment wins!

Title: Relaxing AND Math!?!
Review: Excellent gateway game into the contemporary board gaming hobby. My husband and I enjoy playing this game, but be warned! You might end up getting donuts the next day =-) I think kids would like this, says 8+. It would be especially good if they are learning multiples of 5 because at the very least, they could score every turn using their donut tile. Plus, you collect money. Who doesn't love that?

Title: I paid for “new” but I got opened and strewn
Review: This is a great game that arrive safely. My criticism is that I paid the extra $3 for a new copy. What I got was an already opened game with all the parts strewn around the inside of the box, getting nicked up. Very unhappy about this, but I need it now as a gift.

Title: Adorable and Fun!
Review: We had a great time playing! I mean, a donut shop? Of course everyone wanted to play this one first. The rules were quick to explain, and we were able to jump in trying to complete as many orders. Great theming, and it was a fun game!

Title: Great Theme; Decent Game
Review: The 50's diner-style artwork is excellent! This is a reverse-Tetris game in disguise as you place tiles, each with 4 donuts, to create chains of like pastries and hopefully in a group that you can box up for extra coins. A fun little game that only takes 5 minutes to learn and about a half hour to play.
