Tuynuk: the hole that swallows a city

You are a hole in the ground. Glide down the street and everything in your way slides over the rim into the dark. The more you swallow, the bigger you grow: cones and people first, then cars and buses, and in the end whole buildings.

Tuynuk: a big hole swallowing an apartment block

How a round goes

  1. Tap Play and in under a second you are in the city. No waiting for a room, no sign-up, no download.
  2. At first the hole is small: cones, bins, benches, passers-by and lamp posts fit. Within ten seconds cars start to fit too.
  3. For two minutes you grow, dodge other holes or swallow them yourself.
  4. When time runs out, the top three by score step onto the podium. One tap takes you to the next round in a new city.

A city with a Tashkent feel

The city is rebuilt every round, yet it feels familiar: mosaics on the ends of panel blocks, a blue-domed market, a madrasa with minarets, avenues of plane trees and poplars, bread carts, white sedans in the spirit of the Nexia and Cobalt, Damas-style minibuses, city buses. It is all one low-poly style, made for this game.

People and bots

A room holds up to 12 holes. If few people are on, bots fill the seats at once, so you never wait. Bots are never disguised: the BOT mark always stands next to the name and in the table. Only people’s scores, computed on the server, reach the leaderboard.

Controls

  • Phone: put a finger anywhere and drag: direction is measured from where the finger came down. A short drag is slow, a long drag is full speed.
  • Computer: the hole moves towards the mouse pointer. WASD and the arrow keys work too.

On a weak connection

Your own hole is computed in the browser, so movement feels instant even at 100 ms of lag, while the server checks the result. The game uses about 3 KB per second. If the connection drops, the game does not stop: the round carries on in your browser, and if the server does not answer you play offline with bots right away.

FAQ

Is this Hole.io?

No. Hole.io belongs to another company and is not on this site. Tuynuk is our own game in that genre: its own city, art and rules.

Do I need to sign up?

No. A name is filled in for you and you can change it. Everything runs in the browser.

Is it free?

Yes. There is no in-game currency, nothing to buy and no random rewards. All colours are open to everyone; nothing is locked.

Which phones does it run on?

Any modern browser with WebGL 2. The game watches its frame rate and lowers shadows and resolution by itself when needed.
