If you love number puzzles, 2048 is your ticket to a brain-teasing good time. You’re looking at a 4×4 grid filled with tiles. With each swipe, all tiles slide in that direction—if two tiles share the same number, they merge into one larger tile. Make enough clever moves, and tiny “2” squares become massive “1024” or “2048” blocks. But beware: every move you make spawns a new tile. Overcrowd the board with no merges left, and it’s game over. A little luck helps, but strategy is key—planning merges in advance can spark a chain reaction that leaps you to higher numbers faster. It’s simple to learn yet endlessly addictive. Whether you manage a quick session during lunch or buckle down for a serious tile-sliding marathon, 2048 never fails to scratch that puzzle itch.
