How to play
In Hole.io you control a hole in the ground that moves around the map. By consuming various objects, your hole increases in size, which lets you consume larger objects as well as the smaller holes of other players. The goal is to grow by swallowing what you can and to take in smaller holes when the chance appears, so your size becomes an advantage rather than a limit.
Controls explained
Drag to move your hole. The same drag input is used to move, and the game also lists a move other control for moving. Keep your drags deliberate: a hole that drifts without purpose can end up near objects it cannot yet swallow.
Tips
- Start with small objects you can already consume, then move up to larger ones as your hole grows.
- Watch the size of other holes before you approach them; only smaller holes can be consumed.
- Keep moving around the map instead of staying in one spot, since objects are consumed and the map changes.
- Use short drags to steer precisely near objects that are close to your current size.
