Frequently asked questions
How do you play 2048 with the keyboard?
Press the arrow keys or WASD to slide every tile on the board in that direction at once. Tiles with the same number merge into one tile worth double when they touch, and a new tile appears after each move.
Can you keep playing 2048 after reaching the 2048 tile?
Yes, reaching 2048 shows a win message but the board stays open so you can keep merging tiles for a higher score. The game only ends for good when the board is full and no more moves are possible.
Does 2048 work on mobile, and is my best score saved?
Yes, swipe in any direction to slide the tiles, or use the on-screen D-pad on touch devices. Your best score is saved on the device so it carries over between visits.
What happens when the 2048 board gets completely full?
The game ends when every cell is filled and no adjacent tiles can merge in any direction. Your score is then compared against your saved best before you can start a new board.
