Objective
Goal

Combine matching numbered tiles by sliding them across the board until you reach 2048.

Steps
  1. 1Use arrow keys (or swipe on mobile) to slide all tiles in one direction.
  2. 2Tiles with the same number merge into one tile of double value when they collide.
  3. 3After every move, a new 2 or 4 spawns somewhere on the board.
Quick Tips
Pick a corner. Anchor your highest tile in one corner and never move it.
Avoid the up direction. Most consistent wins come from chaining left-right-down only.
