How it feels

A clean, straightforward number-tile merging puzzle that feels satisfyingly repetitive and quietly brain-tickling as you chase a high score.

What players say

Reviews call this a paid port of the free browser game 2048. It offers classic, modern, survival, and time trial modes on 4x4 and 8x8 boards, and an undo button in classic mode. Players are split: some praise the variety and achievements, others call the modern 3D mode lazy and note the game is not very special.
