A .io Game is a genre of video game that originated in the late 2010s. These games, belonging to the MMO (massively multiplayer online) genre, are defined by having most of the following traits: Quick and easy to join: .io games don't require the creation of an account to play (although some do offer the option); you simply enter your username and go. They are also often browser-based, not requiring any downloads aside from the plug-in used to run the game, making them even simpler and quicker to join. Many also offer mobile apps, allowing them to be played on the go. Simple rules: Quite often, one can instantly deduce how to play simply by seeing the game screen. Other games show a quick tutorial to explain a few additional nuances, but it should take one less than a minute to grasp the basics. Player Versus Player: .io games pit you against other players, whether it be in a free-for-all or team-based competition. Power growth: Players grow more powerful as they play. A player's power level is often represented by his character growing larger. However, being eliminated often means losing most or all of that power. Gameplay over story: the vast majority of such games have no storyline at all. Only a few games hint at a backstory, like Surviv.io with its change log notes and brief and well-hidden audio recordings, or BattleRoyale.io with the Flavor Text in its Monster Compendium. The name of the genre is derived from the fact that many of these games' sites have the ".io" top-level domain, which was originally intended for sites related to the British Indian Ocean Territory but has since become popular with tech startups due to making a pun on input/output. In these cases, the "io" is treated as part of the game's name, with the "dot" being considered silent (Agar.io is pronounced "agario", not "agar" or "agar dot io"). The Trope Maker is Agar.io. Due to its simple yet addictive gameplay, it exploded in popularity and quickly became an internet phenomenon. Follow the Leader soon ensued when Slither.io reached similar popularity levels, and the genre was born. |

Deeeep.io: A side-view game that simulates a marine ecosystem, where players start off as Tier 1 clownfish or marine worms, eat food and/or each other and evolve into stronger creatures. Besides the sea and the titular deeeep, there are also ways to reach the swamp and the arctic, and even get to their surface. However, all species have their oxygen, pressure, temperature and salinity needs, and will take damage when venturing outside their comfort zone. Thus, its evolutionary tree gets wider as the players ascend it - while there are ~5 options at the lower tiers, tier 10 culminates with 24 options. | |

Mope.io: A significant evolution of agar.io, which keeps the movement mechanics, but places players into real ecosystems as (mostly) real-world animals that all have a special ability or two, then forces them into predator-prey relationships where eating is necessary to evolve into the next animal tier, along with drinking water just to survive. | |

Wanderersio: A pixel-art style, 2D top-down game (by the same maker of Wilds.io) where you control a tribe across a hostile sandbox of other tribes and non-playable barbarians by guiding them to objects that they'll interact with if the tools are available. Tribes of the same color can work together in sharing resources and taking down other tribes. | |
