2048 FAQs

What is the goal of 2048?

Merge matching numbered tiles until you create a tile worth 2048. You can carry on playing afterwards for a higher score.

Can I undo a move?

Yes — the Undo button rolls back your last move once, which is handy when a slide goes wrong.

Is 2048 a game of skill or luck?

Both. New tiles spawn randomly, but keeping your largest tile in one corner and building an ordered row is a proven strategy.
