Ever wanted to control a hole that slowly swallows a city, growing larger the whole time? Hole.io is a simple and incredibly fun game that lets you explore this very concept. By moving your finger, you can direct a massive hole around a cute 3d city and try to suck up the whole thing as fast as you can.

Hole.io is a free game for iOS and Android. In the game, you use your finger to control the movement of a small hole in the ground of a cartoonish 3D city. As you bring the hole under objects, the game's simulated physics will allow small objects to fall into your hole. 

Some objects might not fall in immediately. Instead, objects with a dimension that's larger than the hole will get stuck. You can run them into other objects to adjust their position. swallow up smaller objects to make the hole bigger, or use these stuck objects as battering rams to dislodge things like buildings and cars and make them easier to manipulate.

The goal of the game is to suck up as many objects as you can. At first, your hole is relatively small, letting you swallow people, trees, fences, and not much else. As you eat more and more objects, your hole grows bigger. This happens in stages, not gradually, so you'll have a bit of time stuck at each size as you work your way through the game.

Hole.io has two main modes. In classic mode, you're the only hole in town. You have two minutes to make your hole as large as you can and send as much of the town as possible into the infinite blackness. In battle mode, you play a battle royale-style game with a number of computer-controlled holes. These holes work just the same as other objects. If you run into a hole that's bigger than yours, it will eat you and end your run. Collide with a hole that's smaller than yours, however, and you'll eat it instead, potentially allowing you to grow even larger.

As you play Hole.io, you'll earn points. These points increase your level, which in turn helps you unlock skins that can change what your hole looks like. Some other skins can also be unlocked by eating certain objects in-game with your hole.

Hole.io is fantastically simple and fun. While it's not a complex game on the surface, the simple control scheme and intuitive physics engine make the game an absolute blast to play. The way your hole grows in size, the game's physics, and the layout of the map work together to create a puzzle that's incredibly engaging to solve. You probably won't perfect your strategy at first, but you'll have a lot of fun working your way through iterations of your strategies until you find one that works to make your hole big enough to eat up the entire town.
