TL;DR: The closest match is Blob Arena, our from-scratch tribute - in the petri dish, mass is the only law. Six more machines from Agar.io's home row are below.
Agar.io (Matheus Valadares, 2015) defined its corner of the arcade as a massively-multiplayer arcade. The massively-multiplayer arcade picks below all play free in the browser with keyboard and touch controls, and every Agar.io stand-in posts to a global leaderboard with a fresh seeded run each day.
The Top Pick: Blob Arena
Blob Arena rebuilds the Agar.io formula from scratch: absorb pellets and smaller blobs to grow while escaping the bigger ones hunting you. The house card rates it "size math at escape velocity" with a "graze, chase, panic, repeat" tempo. Want the backstory first? Read the history of Agar.io.
