Hole.io review

Hole.io is the most relaxing game on the list. Voodoo's App Store listing describes an eat-the-world game: you start barely big enough to swallow a trash can and grow until you can gulp down skyscrapers, across maps such as busy New York, a pirate cove and a glowing sci-fi city. Controls are a swipe and glide, sessions are short, and seasonal events such as Halloween 2026 add themed content. Voodoo's own page calls it the most addictive black hole game, with a clock ticking on each round. The game is free; on the US App Store, single skins cost $0.99 and No Ads costs $9.99. It rates 4.6 from 2M ratings and 4+ for age. Hole.io ranks last because, like Paper.io 2, Voodoo's official page links to the app stores rather than a browser version, and it has less competitive depth than the other picks. It suits players who want calm fun on a phone. We compared documented features and published prices.
