2048
2048 is an addictive sliding puzzle game that challenges your strategic thinking and mathematical skills. Created by Gabriele Cirulli in 2014, it quickly became a viral sensation. The game is played on a 4ร4 grid where numbered tiles slide in four directions. When two tiles with the same number collide, they merge into one tile with their sum. The goal is to create a tile with the number 2048, but the fun doesn't stop there - you can keep playing to achieve even higher numbers. Each move adds a new tile to the board, so you need to plan carefully to avoid running out of space.
How to Play 2048
Use arrow keys (or swipe on mobile) to slide all tiles in one direction. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one with double the value. A new tile (2 or 4) appears after each move. The game is won when you create a 2048 tile, and it ends when no more moves are possible.
2048 Tips & Tricks
Keep your highest-value tile in a corner. Build a chain of descending values along one edge. Avoid moving in the direction that would displace your highest tile from its corner. Focus on keeping the board organized rather than just combining tiles randomly.
