About 2048

This game is a sliding puzzle game where you combine numbered tiles on a 4x4 grid. Swipe or use arrow keys to move all tiles in one direction. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one tile with their sum. Your goal is to create a tile with the value 2048, though you can continue playing afterward. The game ends when no more moves are possible. Each move adds a new random tile (usually 2 or 4) to the grid, increasing the challenge as you progress.
