  This paper deals with uniform stabilization of the damped wave equation. When
the manifold is compact and the damping is continuous, the geometric control
condition is known to be necessary and sufficient. In the case where the
damping is a sum of characteristic functions of polygons on a two-dimensional
torus, a result by Burq-G\'erard states that stabilization occurs if and only
if every geodesic intersects the interior of the damped region or razes damped
polygons on both sides. We give a natural generalization of their result to a
sufficient condition on tori of any dimension $d \geq 3$. In some particular
cases, we show that this sufficient condition can be weakened.
