Puzzle
Cube 2048
One swipe moves the entire four-by-four grid. Equal neighbours merge in pairs, and each successful move adds a new 2 or 4 in an empty square.
How to play
Your objective
Build a 2048 tile. You can keep going for 4096; the run ends when the board is full and nothing can merge.
Controls
- Swipe across the board, press an arrow key, or use the four direction buttons. You move every tile in that direction, not just the one under your finger.
Read a row of four twos
Imagine a row showing 2 · 2 · 2 · 2. Swipe left: its original tiles become 4 · 4 on the left, worth eight points for the two merges.
The two new fours cannot merge in that same swipe. The board also adds a new tile after the move; check where it landed.
On a later left swipe, those adjacent fours can become an 8.
Player tip
Choose a corner for your largest tile and check what each swipe will do to its row. Keeping one empty square makes it easier to rearrange the next pair.
