How to Grow Fast
Your hole grows with every object it swallows. At the start, only small things fit, so eat as many people, signs and small objects as you can. As you grow, cars and trees will fit, then whole buildings. Areas packed with small objects are the fastest way to grow early on.
Hole.io Tips and Tricks
- Go for crowds of small objects first.
- Clear one area at a time instead of wandering.
- Watch other holes. Stay away from bigger ones and chase smaller ones.
- Save time for big buildings once you are large enough.
- Keep moving. Every second counts in a short round.
Common Mistakes
- Getting too close to bigger holes, which can swallow you.
- Trying to eat objects that are still too big.
- Staying in empty areas where there is nothing left to swallow.
Why Players Love It
Watching a tiny hole grow until it swallows a whole skyscraper is very satisfying. Rounds are short, the controls are as simple as they get, and every match ends with a race to be the biggest. It is easy to play just one more round.
