2048 is a simple yet addictive sliding tile puzzle game created by Gabriele Cirulli in 2014. It can be played on mobile devices, web browsers, or desktop.
🔹Objective: Combine numbered tiles on a 4×4 grid to create a tile with the number 2048.
🔹How to Play: The game starts with two tiles (usually 2 or 4) on a 4×4 board. You use the arrow keys (or swipe on mobile) to move all tiles in one of four directions: up, down, left, or right. When two tiles with the same number collide during a move, they merge into one tile with the sum of their values (e.g., 2 + 2 = 4). After each move, a new tile (2 or 4) appears at a random empty spot on the board.
🔹Winning and Losing: You win the game by creating a tile with the number 2048. You lose when the board fills up and no more moves are possible.
🔹Strategy Tips: Keep your highest tile in a corner. Try not to move up (or in a direction that breaks your corner strategy). Think ahead: merging small tiles now can open up space for bigger moves later. Plan your moves instead of swiping randomly.
🔹 Why It’s Popular: Easy to learn, hard to master. Quick to play, with endless replay value. Simple interface, no distractions.
