How to play
- Press the arrow keys (or swipe on screen) to push every tile in the same direction.
- When two tiles holding the same number collide they merge into one tile.
- After each move a new 2 or 4 tile is added to the grid.
- Build the 2048 tile; the game ends when the grid is full with no moves left.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a way to win 2048?
The most common approach is to keep your largest tile in one corner and always feed it from the same two directions. That keeps big values next to each other so the middle of the grid does not fill up needlessly.
Does my best score get lost?
No. Your best score is stored in the browser's localStorage and survives even after you close the tab. It only resets if you clear your browser data.
Does the game end when I reach 2048?
No. You win when you make the 2048 tile, but you can keep playing to aim for 4096 and beyond.
