About IO Games HQ

Updated 2026-11-12

IO Games HQ is a free browser game site at iogameshq.com, launched in November 2026 and written in English. It collects .io games: snake and worm games, hole and eat-to-grow games, battle and shooter arenas, and obby and survival games. No account or download is needed. You open a page, press Play, and the game loads in the provider’s player inside an iframe on our page.

Why only .io games

The .io niche has its own style of play, with short rounds, simple controls, and matches against other players. A site that covers only this niche can describe each game in the terms its players already use, and our editors can check every title against the same narrow standard instead of sorting through unrelated genres. We do not try to cover every genre.

How games are chosen and described

Our editors pick each game by hand. A game must run in the provider’s browser player, fit the .io niche, and contain no adult or gambling content. Games are made by independent developers and distributed by GameDistribution and Y8, and they run in the provider’s player.

Each game page text is written from the developer’s own description and controls list. AI writing tools help draft it, and every text passes our editorial checks before it goes live. We do not invent features, ratings or player numbers.

What we do not do

We do not show star ratings or play counts, because we do not collect votes. We have no user accounts, no comments, no chat, no newsletter and no forms that collect personal data. The site itself sets no cookies and shows no ads of its own. Ads can appear inside a game’s player, and those come from the game provider, not from us.

There is no public email address yet. It is being set up and will be published on the contact page. Until then, the contact page explains what to include in a broken game report, a correction or a copyright request. A rights holder can ask us to remove a game page, and we remove it after checking the request.
