2048 Open-source
The modern tile-sliding classic: push numbered tiles around a 4×4 grid and matching tiles merge, doubling as they go. The rules take one round to learn, the endgame takes much longer to master. No timers, no fail state — a full game is a quiet three-to-five minutes, and your best score stays on this device.
Loads the game from our own servers after you choose Play. Nothing loads before that.
Scores are kept on this device only. Enable personalization to track your personal best.
How to play
Arrow keys on desktop; swipe on touch screens. Nothing else is needed.
Fully keyboard playable. Every tile prints its numeral, so colour never carries information alone. No sound, no timers, no motion beyond the slide animation.
