Online io Games
Start small, grow fast and keep an eye on everyone else.
The simple rule behind every io game
Almost every io game starts the same way. You spawn as something tiny in a big shared arena and try to grow before someone bigger catches you. Rounds are short, losing costs nothing, and you can hit play again straight away. Every io game here is free, and a fresh round starts in seconds.
Territory games are one branch. In Paper.io 2 you leave your zone, draw a loop and close it to claim the land, but if anyone crosses your trail before you get home, you are out. Superhex.io plays on the same idea with hexagons. Snake games are the other big branch, with Little Big Snake and Worms Zone a Slithery Snake both built around eating to grow longer and making rival snakes crash into you.
There are shooters too, like BuildRoyale.io and War Brokers. Paper.io 2, Happy Snakes and Worms Zone also play in a phone browser.
