All io games in one

History of IO Games

The io game genre all began with the release of an insanely addicting game called agar.io (which was probably inspired by another game called “Osmos”). What made this io game so unique was it’s very interesting style. Unlike most browser games of the past, it was designed to be played in a fullscreen browser window, and was entirely multiplayer. This set the framework for many of the other .io games that would hit the web in the months to come.

New IO Games, Rules for Success

Most fun and successful new io games follow these general guidelines:

* Have the player be able to hop right into a game with one click.

* Keep it super simple to learn but difficult to master.

* Allow the player to “scale” their authority in-game compaired to other players.

* And last but not least, they are either competitive or cooperative.

There's no experience required to begin playing, meaning people can get the hang of it very quickly. Despite this, the game is difficult to master. The simple, clean graphics are also worth mentioning as a relevent characteristic of the genre.

Why Create this app?

After I found the first few popular io games, I tried to find more. Sadly, without a list, they were really hard to find. I felt that they deserved more exposure, so I decided to create my own list. I put together all the titles I could find, and many helpful users shared new ones with me. From that point on, I was on a mission to push the io movement forward!
 On this application you will find that the games in the list have a common style and theme similar to those mentioned above. That’s what I'm here for! So, support the games and make sure you bookmark this site. I try to keep it updated with the best, new io games every day, so make sure to check back from time to time. Have fun!
