Game Description
2048 is a single-player sliding tile puzzle game developed by Gabriele Cirulli. Merge tiles with the same power of 2 to get the total sum. The goal is to keep merging tiles this way until you reach 2048!
How to Play
- Start the Game: The game begins with a 4x4 grid containing two tiles, each with a value of either 2 or 4.
- Slide Tiles: Use the arrow keys (Up, Down, Left, Right) to slide all tiles in that direction. Tiles will move as far as possible until they hit the edge of the grid or another tile.
- Merge Tiles: When two tiles with the same number collide while sliding, they merge into one tile with the sum of their values (e.g., two "2" tiles merge into a "4" tile).
- New Tiles Appear: After each move, a new tile (either a 2 or 4) appears randomly in an empty spot on the grid.
- Continue Merging: Repeat the process of sliding and merging tiles to create larger numbers (e.g., 8, 16, 32, etc.).
- Win or Lose: The game is won if you create a tile with the value 2048. The game ends if the grid fills up with no possible moves left.
