Hole.io

Hole.io is a 3D arcade game about eating the city from underneath. Guide a small hole beneath street objects, swallow what fits and grow until cars and buildings become possible targets.

The timed browser round rewards efficient growth. Rival holes compete for the same food, so choosing a productive route matters as much as chasing an opponent.

Start with objects that fit

Look for small street clutter rather than heading straight for the tallest building. Move the opening under a target and let it drop in. If an object remains too large, leave it and collect smaller items until your hole expands.

Turn growth into a better route

Each size increase opens new targets. Clear nearby groups, then return to vehicles and structures you could not swallow earlier. You do not need to fire or activate a separate eating attack.

Watch rivals and the timer

Larger holes can swallow smaller ones. Avoid a dangerous rival while you are small, and only pursue a smaller hole when it will not cost more time than feeding nearby. The standard city round is a short score race, commonly around two minutes; follow the timer shown in your game.

• LRMove Mouse: steer the hole.
• ↑↓←→: alternative movement in keyboard-enabled browser builds.

On phones and tablets, use the touch movement control. Guide the hole beneath objects to consume them; there is no separate shoot or reload action.

• Chain nearby small targets. A row of street objects can produce faster early growth than crossing the map for one oversized target.
• Leave a target that will not fit. Repeatedly circling a large building wastes the round timer. Return after another size increase.
• Reassess after growing. A street you already passed may now contain edible cars or buildings, making a short return route worthwhile.
• Do not turn every rival into a chase. Keep eating when an opponent is moving away through an empty area; a dense block may offer a better score.
• Give larger holes room. Avoid entering a crowded feeding area with a bigger rival when an unclaimed route is available.
