Understand the Grid: The game is played on a 4×4 grid. At the start, two tiles with values of either 2 or 4 appear randomly on the grid. Combine Tiles: When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into a single tile with their combined value (e.g., two 2 tiles merge into one 4 tile). Aim for 2048: The goal is to create a tile with the number 2048. However, you can continue playing to reach higher numbers if you wish. New Tiles: With each move, a new tile (2 or 4) appears in a random empty spot on the grid. Game Over: The game ends when no more moves are possible, either because the grid is full or no more tiles can be merged. Strategy: Plan your moves to prevent the grid from filling up too quickly. Try to keep your highest-value tile in a corner and avoid spreading out your tiles too much.
