📖 How to Play & Rules – 2048
- Swipe Up, Down, Left, or Right on the board (or use Arrow keys / D-Pad buttons) to slide all tiles.
- Tiles with the same number that collide during a move merge into one tile of double the value!
- After every valid slide, a new 2 or 4 tile spawns on a random empty spot.
- Reach the 2048 tile to win – and keep playing afterward to push your high score!
💡 Strategy Tips & Tricks
- Corner Strategy: Pick one corner (e.g., bottom-right) and keep your highest-value tile anchored there at all times.
- Avoid swiping away from your anchor corner unless forced.
