About 2048 Classic
Slide, merge, repeat. 2048 Classic is the number puzzle that rewards planning over speed, and it is as easy to learn as it is hard to finish. Every move pushes all the tiles on the grid in one direction.
When two tiles with the same number bump into each other, they combine into one tile with double the value. Keep doing that and you work your way up towards the 2048 tile. The challenge is not running out of room. Arrow keys, mouse or touch all work, so it fits a desktop, tablet or phone, and it is free in your browser.
