A SMALL GAME. A FEW GOOD TRICKS.
Make your next move count.
Swipe on a phone, or use the arrow keys on a keyboard. Every move slides all tiles in that direction. Two matching pictures merge into the next picture, and a new tile appears.
Two become one
2+2→4
Keep merging until you reach 2048. You can keep going after you win.
Three habits that help
- Pick a corner. Keep your largest tile in one corner and build toward it.
- Leave room to move. Merge small tiles before the board gets crowded.
- Look one move ahead. Check where the whole row or column will land, not just the pair you want to merge.
Make yourself at home
