Learn About the Game 2248 Link
You move numbered tiles on a grid to build chains by linking two or more identical tiles then jumping to one with double the value. You cannot reuse any tile along a chain. That rule puts pressure on each choice. Chains of ten or more tiles earn gems you trade for hammers or tools that reshuffle parts of the board.
Every chain adds points based on its length and reach. Longer chains deliver bigger scores and beat your previous best. You create a tile worth 2048 and bombs show up on the grid. They clear parts of the grid and open new space. That twist forces you to balance risk and reward.
You merge tiles into ever larger numbers. The screen shows your score, remaining lives and available power-ups. You plan every move and watch patterns form across the board. Numbers climb into the billions and each choice carries weight.
