This is easily one of my favorite games of all time. Its so simple to learn, but can still be fun and challenging when trying to reach the highest tiles, scores, and learning new strategies. This game is still a fun game to play and I have been addicted to it for years now, with breaks occasionally. I used to mostly just play on computers but i got annoyed with not being able to keep my high scores, or keep my game going wherever I go. So, my easy solution was to download the mobile version. The gameplay is great, everything is super smooth and I can never recall the game crashing. But, whenever i am on wifi (I turned off mobile data use) the ads are SUPER FRUSTRATING. Every time I open the app I anticipate and ad popping up, but there is often a delay. So as soon as I begin to play out of nowhere an ad pops up. This usually causes me to accidentally click on it and the ad opens the app store page. This is always the most annoying thing. There is also the occasional ad that will pop up out of no where. It always throws me off and I usually will just leave the game because I get so annoyed with the ad.
So numero uno prob, I have random friends that I can’t remember adding, like does it not ask your permission? and two, a friend has the game but we couldn’t play together because the multiplayer doesn’t work. I just won’t connect. And I will come into the game, and I swipe and then a random add pops up! Like what? The game is good overall, but it can get a little confusing. Like about your top five scores. So What I got my first game on this version was pretty bad and I showed it up top because it was my first game. But then I beat it and that was the top. Then I didn’t beat my top, but I did beat my original, which was second. But it didn’t get listed on there anywhere. And by now I have played more games than the five scores it says it displays, but only four are up there and the last one is that first one even though it’s been beaten numerous times. You can only get a new score up there if you beat your top score. I wish you would fix this it would really make my game play more enjoyable. Overall it is a non laggy game, and is extremely addicting and fun. But developers, please take this review into your account. I love this game and would recommend it to everybody with some patience. Just one more thing, how do people get TEN MILLION, I mean I’m pretty good at this but are these people bots? I would really like clarification! Thank you!
Good game, the app is fine, the adds don't bother me-they don't cause a crash and you just exit out of them. My problem is the unpredictability that only happens when you're right on the verge of getting a higher tile. Once you hit a new tile, that possibly took months or years-then you can hit it almost every try after that. It's not that your skill drastically increased, only that the game FINALLY let you. For instance, I'll only be 1024 away from my goal tile when suddenly I have to swipe up because the game decides to be unpredictable. Then a number (90% of the time) appears under my highest tile. Then it gives me a four instead of a two, which of course doesn't match, and just like that-poof. The game is lost. I don't give up then, but I'm again irritated at the unpredictability. It's not a learning game at that point. It's chance. Or better yet, a sick sense of humor by the developers. It's not poor planning by the player. Okay, most times that is the problem, but a few times-it's not. You'll play perfectly to the strategy that works all up until suddenly the game starts changing it up for no reason, and with no purpose other than to make you loose. I actually like this about the game-but not after a year or more of being stuck on the same tile.
I have spent so much time playing this game. It’s fine. I don’t play it because I love it, I play it because it helps me focus while on phone calls, if I’m listening to a podcast or audiobook, and when going to bed. It keeps my brain just busy enough that I don’t meander off, but not so busy that I can’t think. But those days are coming to an end. There is a small banner ad at the bottom of the page. Totally unobtrusive. Except when it changes, it freezes the game for a half second and pauses any audio you have playing. This can happen every 5-10 seconds and often it’s just to play the same ad. These ads don’t even make noise when nothing is playing and when the phone is NOT on silent! There is no reason they should pause other audio, and yet they do. I’ve hit the 8192 tile on this game, it’s the only game on my phone these days, but I’ll be finding a new one now. I do not understand this, I don’t get why it changed. This is clearly an oversight as the developer is certainly got getting more money just because my audiobook stops playing. I’m pretty sure it’s a bug of some sort. I doubt anyone is downloading this game these days, but please do not. There are other versions of this game. Find one that isn’t broken.
So I got this game like about a year ago maybe two and it was fun in the start but now it’s ok I mean it’s not bad, but what I mean by this is that it’s kinda ya know the exact same thing like yeah that’s what happens with every game but ya know it never changes in soon it gets boring and boring. Plus not to mention that you get adds every time you start over like I get the fact that you guys don’t let your players pay money at all by this game but like it’s kinda to much of the adds though. But honestly there’s nothing really wrong with this game at all besides The fact it’s just the same thing and there’s a lot of adds. But honestly if your looking for a game like this then maybe find a different one because this one has a lot of adds in it. So yeah that’s my opinion.
This is by far my favorite game. It involves puzzles and strategy without feeling like you're being tested. Beating high scores and comparing with friends had become one of my favorite activities. There are a few ads as with any free mobile game, but typically only after playing for a long period of time (I'm talking hours, yes I'll play that long) and one short add when you first open the game. I haven't had any problems with bugs or glitches, while I am a fairly new user I have already "beat the game" or reached the 2048 tile, and am yet to experience any issues. Like I said previously I have beat the game (I am very proud of this accomplishment and it inspired me to write the review) yet the game is still fun challenging and just as amazing as before which will keep it on my phone for the long run. Once again I highly recommend, at least give it a try.
I spent a long time working hard to get good at 2048. It took a long time, but eventually I was able to get good enough that I felt I could beat other players in the multiplayer part of 2048… But my dreams were crushed. When I decided it was finally time to tackle my goals and play multiplayer, it wouldn’t load. I got into a game with someone I knew personally, and no matter how long I waited or how much hope I had, it would not load. I realized I could never beat someone in multiplayer 2048…because I could never play multiplayer 2048. It was the biggest disappointment I had ever experienced. So, I deleted the game and whenever I saw anyone else playing it I made them delete it too. Seeing anything related to 2048 made me emotional. Once, in math class, the answer to a problem was 2048, and I had to go see the school counselor to “work through my trauma.” Thank you for reading this review, especially because it was so hard for me to write mentally. I hope you take the idea of fixing the multiplayer part of your game into consideration—it would mean the world to me.
I’ve spent far too many hours in this game over the years to count. It’s an incredibly relaxing play. It’s my go to for winding down at the end of the night. It’s a pretty straightforward game where you try to get to 2048 by adding the nearby blocks to your count. There’s a bit of strategy involved, and from there it’s just about beating your friends and getting the highest score. About the only cons I can think of are that there isn’t a dark mode (something I’d really love to see in a future release), and that the game, simple as it is to start, can really eat up a lot of your spare time. It’s cathartic and addicting while shockingly not being a cash grab. The only purchable option is the ability to disable ads for a couple dollars which I would say is well worth it.
I’ve played this game for years and loved it. Years ago it was the perfect game. I took a break of several years, and came back to a very different experience. Now the ads are way more annoying. At one point the app was very sluggish, to the point it was disrupting my play. At that point I switched to the other “original” 2048 app. I missed the bragging rights of the Game Center leaderboards of this app, so once the sluggishness was fixed I came back. But now the leaderboard and score tracking doesn’t work!! My high score from months ago still shows up as “today” and new top 5 scores don’t show up in the recent top scores. To avoid risking not getting credit for a new high score, I’m switching back to the other app again. That app is better in so many ways: less ads, more responsive, friendlier 2/4 ratio, no unpredictable tile appearances, etc. If the other app was connected to Game Center leaderboards, I’d never touch this version ever again…
I’ve played this for years it helps me relax when I’m stressed out or bored at work. I like to listen to music while I play it due to it just being a numbers game and does not need audio at all but this game is almost impossible to play anymore with music. They constantly have ads on the lower part of the screen that pause my songs and I have to unpause at least 10 times a game and it’s getting to the point I can’t even play the game anymore because of it. I unpause my music and it immediately moves to another ad and pauses it again I’m lucky to get 5 moves in a minute. It Used to be really fun and used to not have problems with it at all but it’s getting to the point I’m trying to find a new comfort game due to this one being unplayable with music. I know is such a small thing but I’ve played for years and have a routine with playing and it’s completely different now.
I’ve had this game for years. I’ve completed all the challenges, but am still trying to get the 4096 tile, it sometimes gets frustrating, but it’s a fun challenge. For those of you who are bothered by the ads after every game, just turn Wi-Fi/cellular off. The game works fine without it. You’ll only get one ad, then none afterwards until you turn Wi-Fi/cellular back on. Pro tips, keep the biggest tile in the bottom left corner at all times and I mean ALL times. Don’t swipe up unless you absolutely have to, and never give up. New types of challenges would be fun, such as having to merge all the current on-screen tiles into a single tile, or reaching a certain score. Overall, great game and definitely recommend.
Although the mechanics may seem simple those that sink their teeth into the game find that it is truly iconic and will stand the test of time. With mobile games that devour upwards of a gigabit of memory for half of the replay ability, 2048 really masters the line of strategy, luck, challenge and accessibility. I've been a fan of this game since it's inception and it has lived a long life on my phone which happens to be longer than some phones. When people refer to the great mobile games of the era, I vision seeing 2048 up there with classics like Snake, Solitaire and Tetris. My hat goes off to the 2048 team for continuing to update their game about 5 years after it's first major debut. I look forward for what lies ahead for 2048 as it continues to live on my phone.
This game is very fun and addicting and I love Ketchapp it is my favorite game company but this happens in a lot of there games like The Floor Is Lava and Color Switch, if you don't update the app it becomes to easy because I play it a lot. This app was sort of a challenge in the beginning and then the more I played the easier it got. Soon I jut started closing my eyes and swiping up and down. Everyone thinks ads and glitching is the problem I just think something simple could make it more complex. JUST ADD SOME MODES!!! You could do a mode where you need to get a certain amount of 4's or 124's or whatever and more that would make playing it burn a lot more time too. Ketchapp please read this and please understand I'm not a hater I love your games which is why I'm trying to help you make them better! 😃
This game seems to set out its initial goal very well however…
I wish there was a game-mode separate from the main mode. A mode with it’s own leaderboard etc. However this mode would have a little reverse button that undos my most recent move. If I make a move that would put me in a stalemate and end the game, the button would be highlighted before the game ends for good. Sometimes I play this game while watching a show or on a commute so I don’t pay attention as much because I’m just violently swiping. The reverse button would rewind my ended game and let me remake a few moves. This undoing should be able to go on for every past move. This sort of defeats the main purpose of the game so that’s why I say make it a separate mode. That’s about it!
i’d like to start this review by saying that this developer is not the original creator of the 2048 game and it’s a little off putting to me to see this developer profiting off of a copied idea with not many changes. that said, the amount of ads on this app are ridiculous. every time you open the app, you’re faced with an ad. when you click to close it, it reopens, or another ad is presented. you are also presented with ads when you lose the game. so, not only does the user get frustrated when they lose the game, that frustration is then compounded when the user is presented with an ad that takes many clicks to close. the padding on the X button on the ads is also ridiculously small, and if you click anywhere on the ad, even seemingly ON the X button, it will take you to the app store, or close and reopen the same ad. basically, this is more of an ad platform than a game experience and i will be deleting 👋🏼
Who is ketchapp and why do they not know visual design
I go through periods where I don’t touch this game for weeks and then hyperfixate on it. I get greeted by a silly developer splash opener. And then immediately into the game. I don’t know what y’all did but you really messed up the kerning on these numbers. I know it sounds like a dumb thing to complain about, but after years of publishing and copy editing experience there’s just some things that cross the line. It’s such a visual game yet the kerning is so abysmal it’s distracting from the whole point of the game. Every time I look at it, it feels off. It doesn’t look right. For the love of god fix it. My eyes are bugging out.
If I was ever in a spot where I needed something to occupy a little bit of time I would choose this game. And then they started messing with it. See, I figured out the trick to it. Getting 2048 is pretty easy. No problem. 4096 is a challenge but I would often get it. Then they messed with it. I’m not sure how and I’m sure they will deny it but it got even HARDER. No biggie right? After all, I’ve gotten 4096. Well, the next step of 8192? has become impossible. The tiles don’t come that u need and the game ends. Crap! And on top of that? They added advertisements. The worst thing for me because I can’t stand them. So every time I loose? Another advertisement comes up. Often times I actually have the game on my phone and I still have to watch them. So it’s come time to part ways. Thanks for the great game. It added hours of enjoyment for me. Wish u didn’t feel the need of changing things.
This is such an awesome game, but the ads!! Every time I open the game: ad. Every time I lose: 30 second ad I can’t skip. I want to turn on airplane mode to stop them, but then the app lags and I can’t move the tiles. Now, the good parts of this game: I love the sound of the merging tiles, it is just relaxing. I am bad at this game, and my high score was 512 with some 128s. To the developers: great game, but please cut down on the ads. If not, just make it so you can skip them. To people downloading this app: If I were you, I’d think twice on getting this app. It’s great, but if you don’t want the ads, and you don’t want to turn on airplane mode, then maybe not download this app? But it’s a great game, I recommend it.
I used to play this game all the time, even having competitions with family and friends to see how fast you could get to certain scores, but since the ADs were put in, they pop up whenever they want - even in the middle of a game as you’re swiping the pieces around - destroying any kind of record game you might have had, as well as automatically “clicking” on the AD as if I were interested in it, feeding the developer revenue. Shady way to get money, folks!! Add to that, this latest update has introduced a bug that occasionally moves the pieces a second, random direction after a move, destroying any progress you’ve made in the game. Sadly, it looks like it may be time for me to delete this game, as it is not playable for me in this condition. 😢 UPDATE: I saw there was an update, so I tried it. As of version 3.1.0, these issues are still present.
I’m not bored all the time anymore, even though it’s a very lazy boring game. I love it so much. It’s easy if you know good tactics. You don’t always win because you may want a two and they give you a four or vice-versa when you have only one way to move. Also if your next move only makes it so all the numbers are bigger than four and you can’t merge them together. That’s annoying sometimes but whatever, it’s still a good game. Maybe you should make it so at a certain point the game starts giving you fours and eights, and so on. You could also instead of changing the whole game, add another part to this where it does that. (For beginners? Hmmm???)
This is a very fun to play and addictive game that would be very enjoyable if the developers didn’t decide to insult the players by shoving the ads down their throats. I mean, I have nothing against ads to support a free game but when players are presented with a full screen add and the option to close it by clicking the x in the corner, it is extremely annoying that developers decided to ignore players decisions. Clicking on the x to close the ad is a well established GUI convention but instead of closing it, the game simply introduces a delay (often enough to start a new game) and then forcibly opens the App Store, showing the app from the add. This behavior is a serious breach of rules and is equal to programming a cancel button to act as an Agree button. As soon as I find a way to do it, I will raise a formal complaint with the App Store.
The great: They say it’s fun and relaxing, and it really is. When you get into the zone, and your analytical brain turns off, you swipe and swipe with no interruption for ages. I know some people will complain that the game “won’t” give them what they need when their tiles get high. But working within the increasingly crowded board is the whole point. Going for incredibly high scores is only one goal. Personally, my purpose is to enjoy the game, and I do – every single time. The good: Challenges provide a nice switch from the regular goal of a high score. There are ads, but they are quick and do not pop up during play, just between games and at sign-on. The imperfect: The only reason it’s not my fave is that it doesn’t save my high scores most of the time. Yeah, I know I said I play for the joy, and I do ... but I still want to know my best at a glance. I think the highest score listed is right, but it only holds three, and two are very, very outdated. Still, I love it and recommend it to just about everyone.
It’s 2048. Not really much more that I could ask for from the game. However, there’s definitely too many advertisements for my liking; enough that I end up losing interest in the game from having to deal with them a bare minimum of every 7 minutes. Especially when I’m met with an (sometimes even more than one) ad the moment I open the app, I really find it distracting from the game itself. The game itself, however, is just as I said at the start it was: exactly what I expected. Because of that, I can’t exactly give this a poor review. Rather, I’ll go ahead and give a rating of 3 stars - or what I feel is more or less a neutral rating.
These ads are the worst I have experienced on any game. It frustrates me so much that this is the only app I have ever bothered to review. I had this game on my phone with a different carrier and it was fine, they would have a silent ad before/after a game, and it was easy to exit out of. However, since I got my new phone on Verizon, the ads keep popping up all the time - before and after, as well as throughout the game. The worst part is that the ads pop up with full volume (despite my game settings being set to silent), and then it freezes with full volume for a sec while I frantically try to stop it. I didn’t have this issue when on TMobile so I am thinking the cell carrier has something to do with it, so I would strongly advise you to skip this game if you have Verizon.
I really enjoy how intuitively the app works but ads have started to pop up on a lag so you’ll start a game and then mid move the ad pops up and your move will be considered a click that’ll send you to the App Store. It’s a whole mess; I wouldn’t mind ads otherwise cuz like I -get- it, you know? But the way they’re being carried out is really messing up the whole experience for me (I can count the number of reviews I’ve written on one hand but the ads singularly drove me here in this case). Move their location, make ‘em less obstructive/ ‘mandatory viewing’, and/or incentivize watching them for some type of reward and you’ll create a better experience for players.
Good afternoon my fellow financiers. Working hard or hardly working am I right? Haha🕴️Anyways, all jokes aside, my business has been booming but recently I’ve noticed a conflict with the placement of my work platform on my screen. It seems to be higher than what is preferred and it feels as if I’m stretching out my entire hand to reach the actual business work when really, I just want to work comfortably. It is causing my business to go 📉when I really need it 📈 if you know what I mean. Not a big issue, but would be appreciated if fixed. Thank you. -You’re fellow businessman📊📋🗄️🗂️
this how this brilliant, totally awesome game works:
this game is brilliant and really hard to explain, but I’ll give it a shot. when you swipe left, the tiles lock into rows, and all the rows move leftward, sliding against each other until the left-most tile of each entire row butts up against the left wall. any two tiles that touch on their LEADING edges as they move will add together; so if you swipe a 2 and a 2 to the left, they will merge into one 4. every time you move the board, a new tile pops up, a 2 or a 4. same idea for swiping right, as well as for up and down. the goal is to swipe two 1024 tiles together. so every move, you decide which direction to swipe in order to push a tile into another of the same. And, there’s no glitter, bubble-popping sounds, hearts, cutesy animation, or positive reinforcement phrases erupting all over on the screen. have you noticed lately that a-lot of stuff geared toward women is suitable for 5 yo girls? give it a shot, really. DOOO-IIIIT
There is something wrong with the app recently where it completely freezes my entire phone. Can’t play, can’t exit the app, nothing. I have even had to turn off my phone a few times. Not sure what that’s all about. But besides that - something about this game is so addictive, it’s perfect for scratching a mental itch while allowing me to also focus on something else (E.g. tv or movies, lol). It requires the bare minimum of mental investment but just enough to feel rewarded when you win. And it’s great for occupying my hands so I don’t go picking at some scab, lol.
I’ve been playing since I was nine years old and the game is so addictive. I love the smoothly slidable blocks and creative color. But obviously I like the complication and enjoyment a lot. I recommend buying it if you don’t mind as much ads. It has a bit of ads but quite less compared to the games I’ve played recently. I’d say this game is counted as an older game and is more enjoyable for elders and young children. It Exercises Their young/old brain. Since it is an older game, the “teens” don’t really play it anymore but I think it’s quite fun and I can count myself as a teen I guess. I mean I am 14. Anyways I really recommend it for you!❤️🤗🤗
I added this game several years ago when it first came it and recently started playing it again. It’s a great game but when taking a break and returning, the game started crashing thus losing all progress! Twice now I was at 4096 and stopped due to a time constraint. As soon as I opened it back up it crashed and I had to do all that work again! Frustrating to say the least. If this keeps up I’ll be deleting. But I still give it four stars because it can get very challenging the higher you go. Fix the new crashing issues and it gets five stars.
its a fun and challenging game that i’ve enjoyed playing for years off and on. i’m sad that my high scores are no longer viewable (there’s nothing to scroll to…) even though the game still displays my best score :( why? ALSO it used to display the next goal tile to try to reach, but now it only ever says “try to get the 2048 tile” and pops up with a win screen every time i do; it’s very annoying iphone 12 mini ios 17.5.1 ANOTHER THING: i got to the 16k tile tonight again, but it’s just a dark square with no discernible text. what’s going on guys?
This is by far the best game I have ever played. After spending over 1000 hours on this game it still has not gotten old. The sheer magnificence that comes from this simple concept is incredible. The complex strategies one must develop rival mainstream games. This game is the closest thing I have to a cure after suffering from post-partem depression. My cat could die tomorrow and I would not care, in part because I do not like cats, but mostly because of this game. Everything I have ever looked for in a game. 100% FIVE STARS - I wish I could give it more.
The app is fun, more than likely addicting. Me and my buddies at school are always off in the corner playing this game online on our iPads. It is a very challenging and fun game but there’s one thing that makes everyone angry. It’s when you get to the point when you are at a high number. Then you have to swipe because the game is being unpredictable. And when you do swipe, it decides to play a sick little trick on you, making the number not capable of going into another one. Do you do this on purpose? Cuz maybe you shouldn’t. It’s making everyone disappointed and irritated. It’s annoying and you should really address the issue. Thank you for your time.
The game is good, but I don’t like noise: music, dinging, men yelling things at me in ads. I don’t mind the ads, but I. Silenced the game for a reason. Not all the ads can be silenced. I dislike that very much. I’m becoming more and more irritated with that. I would rate the game as great, but I can’t because playing it isn’t great with noise. I don’t want to silence the whole phone. I don’t know how much the upgrade is, but I don’t want to upgrade for this reason. I would upgrade because I love the game and don’t want interruptions, not because it is so irritating! Think about it.
I love the classic game, 2048. It's fun, relaxing, and overall a good game. So when I download an app to play it I'm not expecting adds every 5 seconds. Jesus Christ, how money hungry do you have to be to have that much ads? Another problem is the sounds. It is not challenging AT ALL to make/find a sound that's nicer then whatever monstrosity you chose. It is so infuriating to hear. If I had to spend five more minutes hearing that sound I would rip off my ears and hang myself. Like why would you add such an unsatisfying sound whenever you move?? One more thing. The colors are so boring. You have access to the entire color spectrum, and you choose the most depressing colors to ever exist. Whoever created this app should delete it immediately and stop embarrassing themselves my God.
It’s a fun game, but it’s frustrating when you spend 45 minutes getting to the 4096 tile, and all of a sudden all the tiles swipe upwards even thpugh you didn’t do that, and now there’s a 2 at the bottom, under the 4096,And now you can’t get that huge tile out of the middle of the board and you lose within a few minutes. The game should never make moves by itself, it should only do what you tell it to do. And if they can’t fix that, there needs to be an undo button so you can undo the moves it makes for you against your will. App deleted because of this.
I decided the other day to get this game because I never can find one that keeps me busy and I’ll actually like for a long time. (ADD problems) One day my dad recommended it to me and I finally downloaded it. When I did, it was frozen. I asked my dad to show me what it was like on his phone. He swiped and the numbers moved. Mine did nothing whenever I moved my fingers. I tried hard resetting my phone and deleted and redownloading the app multiple times. It was still frozen.
It’s supposed to save the five best scores. It does not. It saves the five times that you beat your old record. If you didn’t beat your current record, it won’t keep the score in the five best, even if it’s a higher score than one if the saved scores. What it *should* do is remove the lowest of the saved five and save the higher score, even if it was lower than the current best score. But no. A second best score just goes away. Annoying. And the ads are ridiculous. You have to watch a full minute of the crap. They don’t call it a time sink for nothing.
I don’t know when you guys switched codes recently but I’ve been playing this game on this app for two years. And the ads after EVERY GAME even the puzzles didn’t make me as upset as the new update. The font has changed and it’s bolder and bigger and looks ugly when you get to higher numbers. There’s a notification for every 2048 win. And the top no longer updates to your highest achievements, what I mean is i’ve gotten 2048 not 4096 and it used to say “you’re next goal is the 4096 tile!” and now it doesn’t even when you pass 2048. So weird. Switching apps.
I love this game and didn’t mind the ads in between games but now the ads in the lower thirds play while i play the game. To the point where if I’m listen to music or a podcast on my phone, the sound on whatever I’m watching cuts out while the ad plays. To make matters worse, if i exit out of the game tab to press play on whatever i was listening to, when i get back to the game tab the ad begins to play again. So it’s a never ending cycle of ads. Really disappointed in this decision to add this ad feature. It’s quite literally unbearable.
Stop hiding the controls to turn off ads with sounds and to close them
I used to love this game and playing it everyday, but lately the quantity and aggressiveness of the ads have gotten out of control. They hide the control to turn off the sounds and the fade into the background control to close the ad. Offer a paid verse of the app or try to find a balance between the quantity and quality of the ad and make the control visible and accessible. If not, I deleting it off my phone.
Hi! So I don’t know if you need to hear this but if you are struggling right now just know that there is always someone looking out for you. His name is Jesus Christ who died on the cross for your sins! No matter how hard you have been broken, hurt, or cheated he will never leave you or forsake you. I know times can be tough, so how about we make a deal? Put your trust on Him for one week, and pray. See what happens! You would be pleasantly surprised. He helped me in hard and he will help you too:).
This game is fun and I like it but I’m gonna have to stop playing it. The ads were annoying but understandable at first. There’s that delay people mention so you accidentally are always clicking the ads when you go back to the app, but that’s whatever. HOWEVER, it seems to be recent that the bottom banner ad will begin to play audio WHILE you’re playing. This makes it so that every 15 seconds my music will stop playing so I can hear the ad! That is WHOLLY unnacceptable. If I can’t listen to my podcasts or music while I play this on my metro commute: This. Game. Is. Not. Worth. It. Please change this.
I love this game, especially since i can play underground on my commute to and from work. But it crashes and starts over the game way too often. I literally beat my high score and got the 16,384 tile with no sign of being close to losing, I go back into the game next day and it restarted. It’s really frustrating when you put all that time and effort and it gets erased. The developers really need to work on this or create a save point. I’m just going to stop playing if it’s just going to delete my progress every time I go back in. Especially since it’s not something you play quickly. It’s one of my favorite games. Please work on this.
I have played and loved this game for years. I’ve played it on many different phones and devices and have told other people about it too. But recently the banner ads at the bottom of the screen have started playing songs that you have to mute, even if your phone is on vibrate. It’s ridiculous to essentially have to mute a new “pop up” ad every few seconds when all you want to do is play the game. Ads between games are one thing but this is not the right way to place them and is actively pushing me away from the game.
Please remove the violent advertising from this game
I really enjoy this game and I have not minded the ads up until today. I realize there are a lot of violent video games out there but I prefer not to watch these violent ads. I'm not interested in seeing human figures fighting and unfortunately I may remove your game from my devise if I continue seeing these types of advertisements. Please keep nonviolent ads with the nonviolent games and remove the "city fighter vs street gang" ad from this game. Thank you for your understanding.
It’s such an addicting game. I was SO determined to reach 2048 and when I did, I FIGURED OUT YOU CAN PLAY FARTHER. I thought it just ended at 2048 but no, you get even more challenge! Not only that, but they have other “challenges” in the menu. REGARDING ADS: I was somewhat annoyed with the ads, but didn’t want to spend the money to get rid of them…. UNTIL I realized it was only a one time purchase to get rid of them FOREVER! I think it’s only 1-2 dollars which isn’t bad at allll. Worth it.
This game is great. It is a game you try to get your friends to play, and you always can improve. If you are good at the game you can strive for numbers higher than 2048. The only way the game would be better was if there was unlock-able styles for your squared that you can achieve by getting high numbers consistently, also maybe a 1v1 game mode where whoever has a higher score at the end of a timer or who gets to a certain number faster wins
DOWNLOAD THE ORIGINAL NOT THIS DEVELOPER! The original has adds that aren’t anywhere near as intrusive! This app seriously kills your battery. Played for about an hour on a road trip and went from ~90% to 10% with my phone on about a quarter brightness. Plugged in my phone and kept playing and my phone said charging but it was not going up, it actually dropped to 9% after a few minutes. I killed the app and switched to a reading app and my battery climbed back up to 50%. Started playing this again and the battery fell to 47% after 10 minutes. Either this game isn’t optimized or it’s doing all kinds of stuff in the background.
The ads, like many people have said in the reviews- are a lot. Where my problem was, is where I purchased the ‘no ads’ that a lot of apps have. I played another round, and at the end I got an ad. Like every other time. It ruined by experience, not only do I feel scammed, but the interface itself to find the no ads purchase was weird. When you lose or finish a game there’s a Facebook like button, to take you to their page: except it’s broken, the font is all jumbled up, and it’s hard to read. I like this puzzle. Not how it was made to fit into an app.
Join the numbers and get to the 2048 tile! Swipe to move all tiles. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one. Get to the 2048 tile, and reach a high score! Inspired by Gabriele Cirulli game available on the web: http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/
