Tornado-67

Mission briefing

Become the hungriest tornado in the world! Start your journey as a small whirlwind capable of absorbing only tiny objects, and gradually grow into a massive destructive force of nature. Explore 3 unique locations: a sunny beach, a bustling city, and a suburban neighborhood. Absorb everything in your path — from flip-flops and beach umbrellas to cars and entire buildings. The more objects you collect, the stronger your tornado becomes, allowing you to absorb even larger and heavier objects. Destroy, grow, and unleash a true tornado apocalypse!

Field manual

Control a tornado and absorb everything around you to grow bigger and stronger! Start with small objects such as trash, trees, and road signs, then move on to cars and even entire buildings. On PC, use WASD to move the tornado. Hold the right mouse button and move the mouse to rotate the camera and look around the environment. Use the mouse wheel to zoom the camera in and out. On mobile devices, control the tornado using the on-screen virtual joystick.

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a landscape (wide) screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It is built wide, for a landscape screen — rotate a phone sideways, or give it a tablet or monitor to stretch out on. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.

Field notes for .io arena operations

• Eat at the edges. The centre of an .io arena is where the giants feed; the rim is where small players grow fat on leftovers nobody bothers to chase.
• Never chase a smaller player in a straight line for long. Every second of pursuit is a second the whole arena can see, and something bigger is always watching the chase instead of the chased.
• Use your size as a rumour, not a shield. The moment you make the leaderboard, you become content for everyone's evening — spend big size on safety, position and patience.

Tornado-67 — questions from the ranks

What does it cost to play Tornado-67?

Nothing at all. The mission is free from the first order to the last — no sign-up, no download, no paid tier guarding the good levels. The advertising around this page is what keeps the board free.

What sort of mission is Tornado-67?

Tornado-67 is filed in our .io Arena theatre. Like every operation on this board, it is a browser game — read the briefing above for the publisher's own account of what you are deploying into.

Can I run Tornado-67 on a phone or tablet?

Yes. It plays in the browser on phones and tablets exactly as it does on a computer. It is built wide, for a landscape screen — rotate a phone sideways, or give it a tablet or monitor to stretch out on.

Do I have to install anything before playing?

No installation of any kind. Tornado-67 is an HTML5 game: press the launch button and it loads on this page, and closing the tab leaves nothing behind.
