Description:
While not as large as the Sudoku playing space, 2048 has charm in its limitations and the illusion of space. It starts off feeling pretty empty but you'll be caught off guard by just how quickly the tiles fill up. It gets to the point where you're constantly hoping that there will be at least one tile free to allow for some movement. It's challenging your sense of strategy in a very restrictive space where every move has the potential to make or break your stride. All you can do is try to clear a path to victory.
Instructions:
"The controls for sliding are basic and regulated entirely by a few buttons on the keyboard. They are as follows:
W/Up Arrow - Slide tiles up
A/Left Arrow - Slide tiles left
D/Right Arrow - Slide tiles right
S/Down Arrow - Slide tiles down
Whenever you press a button to slide, all the tiles on the grid will slide in that direction (assuming they can). However, the tiles operating on the collision rule can affect your decision-making. For example, imagine your tiles cover the top row and there's a single tile below the one on the far left. If you were to slide the tiles to the right, only the lone tile would move. When sliding, tiles will move as far as they can until they hit either a wall or another tile and if the tile is the same number, they will merge into one tile with the sum of those numbers. Also, note that every time you slide, a new number 2 tile will appear.
Tips and Tricks
The game tends to start you off with two tiles both with the number 2, though occasionally one will be a 4. RNG plays a large role in how the game plays out, but a good rule of thumb is to start on the outside tiles and keep the center open. This can help lower the chances of filling up the center too quickly and blocking you out."
