Introduction
2048 is a clean number-merging puzzle about planning several moves ahead. Every swipe shifts the board, combines matching tiles, and creates a new tile, so the challenge is keeping enough open space while building toward the 2048 tile.
How to Play
- Swipe the board to move every tile in one direction.
- When two matching numbers touch, they merge into one larger tile.
- Keep your largest tiles organized in one area so the board does not lock up.
- Reach 2048 to complete the main goal, then keep merging for a higher score.
Controls
- Keyboard: use the arrow keys or WASD to slide tiles.
- Touch: swipe up, down, left, or right on the board.
- Restart: use the restart control to begin a fresh puzzle.

Can I keep playing after 2048?
Yes. If the board still has moves, you can continue chasing a higher score.
Why did I lose?
The game ends when the board is full and no adjacent matching tiles can merge.
