About Black Hole Attack

Black Hole Attack is a casual arcade game with a two-part round. First, you move a black hole around and swallow as much weaponry as you can before time runs out. The timer keeps the pressure on, so every second without a pickup is a second lost, and quick decisions about where to go next make the difference.

Then comes the boss. Whatever you gathered in the first part decides your chances in the fight, since a bigger haul gives you more to bring against it. That link between the collecting phase and the boss battle is the whole strategy: a sloppy first half makes the second much harder. Black Hole Attack uses a portrait screen, so it fits a phone held upright, and it runs on computers too.

How to play Black Hole Attack

Objective

Swallow as much weaponry as possible with the black hole before the timer runs out, then use that arsenal to beat the boss.

Getting started

  1. Keep the phone vertical for the tall playfield, or play it on a computer.
  2. As the round begins, move the black hole straight toward the nearest weapons and start swallowing them.
  3. Keep an eye on the timer, because collecting stops when time runs out.
  4. Sweep the black hole across as many weapons as you can reach, since every extra piece helps in the boss stage.
  5. Face the boss with the weaponry you collected, and see how far your haul carries you.

Tips

  • The boss fight is largely decided before it starts, so plan a sweeping route that picks up weapons continuously instead of chasing single pieces far apart.
  • Time is the real limit in the collecting phase, so avoid circling back for one missed weapon when others lie ahead.
  • A lost boss fight usually points to a small haul, so on the following try, spend the whole timer collecting rather than drifting.

Black Hole Attack FAQ

What do you collect in Black Hole Attack?

Weaponry. Your black hole swallows weapons during a timed collecting phase, and the more it gathers before the clock runs out, the better your chances when the boss fight begins.

Is there a time limit?

Yes. The collecting phase runs against a timer, so you have to grab as much weaponry as possible before time runs out. After that, the boss battle uses whatever you managed to collect.

Which way should the phone be held for Black Hole Attack?

Upright. The screen is tall and narrow, which fits a phone held normally, and a computer window works if you prefer more room.
