Post by: PointyFox on Tue, 11 March 2014, 19:03:41: Scored 3136. Got to like 256. Won't play it again because winning would take a lot of planning and I have better things to do :P

Title: Re: 2048
Post by: remdell on Wed, 12 March 2014, 11:28:35: My second attempt. It's pretty easy to get over 4000 if you keep your large numbers on one side. Once it gets cramp on one side, think a few moves ahead of how you can combine your larger numbers together.

edit: Ugh, if only I was more patient...

Post by: Findecanor on Wed, 12 March 2014, 17:26:11: I decided to do a little experiment ...
I pressed only up-left-down-right in that sequence over and over again. The first time I got a score of 3016, the second time I got a score of 2520.

Whenever I try to think to much ahead I always get a score below 1000 ...

I did something similar. I did up left up left up left, until I couldn't any longer, then switched to down right down right down right. I got 2704 several times, though it was not a consistent method.

Don't know everyone's strategy, but I try to get my big numbers on the top row and gather them together, closer to each other. But at some point, I need to "flip it" and then it gets messy since I "lose" at least 1 square...

Same here. I'm eventually forced to move down and it screws everything up, or I simply fill up all the rows.
Title: Re: 2048
Post by: riotonthebay on Thu, 27 March 2014, 20:05:18: 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

Post by: tigersharkdude on Thu, 17 April 2014, 09:47:39: I have played this entirely too much and I can't seem to get passed the 512 block, got close the other day with two 512 blocks but couldn't get them close enough to merge :(

These days, I have improved to the point where I can win about 1:15 tries on average. I won twice within 3 hours last Saturday!

The Dr Who versions are more fun with arrow keys, my phone screen has never liked the capacitance of my fingers.

It's the original version with no undo function.

I got that highscore three months ago btw and I haven't played the game much since then.

I totally apologize, I was an ass. I saw "undo" on the other one and did not compare.

You have my admiration for your skill. My daughter achieved 8192 as well.

Out of curiosity, how long did this single game take?

I got it on my school laptop three months ago. I used to play in between (and sometimes during) classes. I think the game was about two hours of playtime total but I'm not sure. Usually I'd spam left-down in the beginning to save time.

But after a week and not being able to make the black tiles (high numbers) I decided to call it quits ;)
