Is that all of 'em?  The "2048" one is the doge with a red "halo"? I kinda lose track while playing. :))

Game feels a lot harder when you don't have numbers to reference how close you are to 2048...

This game is easy to beat once you solve it. Just keep the big numbers in a corner, and go from there.

I've beaten it 5-6 times now with that method.

Same here. I'm eventually forced to move down and it screws everything up, or I simply fill up all the rows.

I'm with TacticalStache, I beat it almost every time now and have gotten to 4096 twice, my best score being about 50,000. The trick I use is to keep stuff in the bottom right corner, snaking from there. I always keep 4 different numbers in the bottom row so that I can move down, left, right without "dislodging" the bottom row, which can create unfixable gaps in the snake. If my bottom row ever compacts into something less than 4 across, my first goal is to fill it again so that I can get the down, left, right movements back.

I too slightly modified my strategy to be more like riotonthebay's, and that was enough to more than double my previous high score  :D

My demise came quickly after I accidentally bumped my down arrow and messed up my top row  :'(

Yeah, I much preferred playing on my phone. I found that I made fewer mistakes swiping than I did with arrow keys.

Yep. Arrow keys & WASD both work. Just remember that arrow keys will push every block to the farthest edge possible.

but at least this game makes sense, QWOP just seamed really hard for no reason. Then again this game like to screw you over by putting tiles in the most inconvenient places

qwop is a work of art. this is far too logical. the only thing qwop needs is to be merged with the goat simulator.
