74/100

Hole People is a brilliantly absurd take on the 'crowd-gathering' genre that we've seen explode on mobile recently. The premise is simple but undeniably addictive: you control a black hole moving through a crowded city, and your goal is to swallow as many people, vehicles, and eventually buildings as possible. What sets this apart from its competitors is the 'Growth Feedback Loop'—the literal sense of scale as you transition from eating tiny pedestrians to devouring entire skyscrapers in a single gulp.

The physics engine handles the chaos surprisingly well, with ragdoll effects that add a layer of dark comedy to the destruction. While the missions can become repetitive, the steady stream of unlockable skins and 'Hole Upgrades' (like gravity pull strength and expansion speed) provides enough of a carrot to keep you sliding your finger across the screen. It’s the perfect 'waiting for the bus' game: low stress, high visual reward, and purely satisfying in its simplicity.

Dinsun Review

I don't understand why these games exist. We already have the 'hole' game that works. This is a blatant copy with slightly worse graphics and significantly more ads. You move a circle, things fall in, the circle gets bigger. That's it. There’s no strategy, no nuance, and certainly no reason to play this over any of the other five hundred identical games on the store.

It feels like it was developed in a weekend to farm ad revenue from bored kids. The physics are wonky—sometimes objects just bounce off the hole for no reason—and the AI of the 'people' you're supposed to consume is non-existent. It’s a waste of time and digital space. Just play the original if you really must play this genre.
