How to Play

  1. Use arrow keys or swipe to move all tiles in one direction
  2. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one tile with double the value
  3. After each move, a new tile appears (either 2 or 4)
  4. Plan your moves carefully to create space for new tiles
  5. The game ends when the board is full and no more moves are possible

Pro Tips

  • Focus on keeping your highest number tile in one corner
  • Create a chain of decreasing numbers from your highest tile
  • Avoid moving tiles in the direction of your highest value corner if possible
  • Think several moves ahead - like in chess
  • When the board gets crowded, prioritize clearing space over merging small values
