You'll be competing against random players from across the world.

This game from Voodoo can be categorised as advanced arcade. There is only a single level but to the developer's credit, it is a complex, miniature city with thousands of tiny parts, moving cars, parks, people going about their daily lives and detailed buildings of different sizes.


You'll be competing against random players from across the world. The objective is to control the direction of a black hole and consume as many things as possible while moving around — the more things you consume, the bigger your black hole will become (and the easier it will be to consume more).

In the end, the player with the biggest black hole wins. You have to be careful of other players as well. If they have a bigger hole, they can consume your hole. You will be resurrected after a few seconds.

There's something oddly satisfying and addicting about it — watching an entire city crumble to nothing as you control the destruction. There are three game modes: Classic (which has a 2-minute time limit), Battle (you have to be the last one remaining) and Solo fun (eat as much as you can in 2 minutes). It also offers a Bluetooth multiplayer mode if you want to play with friends.

The graphics are bright and colourful but there is no audio. Hopefully the developers will add some audio or music later. A full-screen ad pops up after every round. You can remove them with a one time in-app purchase of Rs 249.
