2048 Game – Addictive Number Puzzle UI
The 2048 Game is a popular and addictive number puzzle game built using HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript. Players slide tiles on a grid to combine matching numbers and reach the target tile of 2048.
This project demonstrates how logical gameplay, grid-based movement, and smooth animations can be implemented using pure frontend technologies without any external libraries.
How to Play
- Use arrow keys (or swipe on mobile) to move tiles
- When two tiles with the same number collide, they merge into one
- Each move adds a new tile (2 or 4) to the grid
- Plan moves carefully to avoid filling up the grid
- Reach the 2048 tile to win the game
- Game ends when no more moves are available
