### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2024-06-28*

The game gives you a long ad every 2 seconds, which barely lets you play the game at all! The only reason I have this app downloaded is to use the color schemes from this game in White Out 2, which is superior in every way to this game.

### 3/5 — App Keeps Crashing

*2018-06-28, version 2.0*

Usually fun & addictive game

### 3/5 — Fun

Too many ads
Freezes frequently 
But it’s fun

### 4/5 — Issues

I'd give it a 5 ⭐️ but I want to change theme and I supposedly don't have the coins 🤦🏻‍♀️

### 3/5 — WhiteOut

Love it..

### 4/5 — Too many ads

*2018-02-10*

The color-only version of 2048 is very relaxing and the color themes are beautiful. But there are too many ads! You get a LONG ad every time you lose, and then another LONG ad every time you try to start a new game. If this could be fixed I would give it 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Love it!

### 1/5 — So many ads you cant even play

*2025-11-25*

Literally every single tap on the screen triggers an ad. Doesn’t even have to be a move, just that it registered a tap. It’s obnoxious to even try to play this game. They’re make bank tho. Waste of time. There’s like 10 versions of this game. Get one that isn’t infested with ads.

### 1/5 — Scammed!!! Paid for no ads and still getting ads

*2025-11-18, version 2.1*

I paid the 1.99 to get rid of ads because I genuinely like this game. I still have ads consistently. REFUND me or fix this!!

### 1/5 — Can’t even play

*2025-07-24, version 2.1*

I can’t even start the game bc the ads are non stop

### 1/5 — Long time player

*2025-02-22, version 2.1*

I have to get rid of this game because the ads will not stop!! After at most 3 moves another ad pops up. Sad

### 1/5 — No don’t get this

*2025-01-09, version 2.1*

Couldn’t play it. Simply wouldn’t stop playing ads. I was excited since I made a new years resolution to finish a 5x5 game of 2048 but man…those ads bro. So many I could barely make one move in and an ad come up.

### 1/5 — Ads have made this unplayable

*2025-01-03, version 2.1*

Used to enjoy this game, now the ads literally won’t stop playing to the point where I had to delete it because it was unplayable.

### 1/5 — What the heck?

*2024-09-27, version 2.1*

I loved this game and played it often. Recently, I can’t make a move without getting an ad or sometimes two ads in a row! I don’t want to delete it, but I can’t play it the way that it is.

### 1/5 — Great game, too many ads

*2019-01-04, version 2.0*

At one time this was a great game, but the number of ads have ruined it.   I thought I had purchased it so I wouldn’t have to cope with ads.   There should be an option to pay to remove ads.

### 1/5 — Totally crashing

*2018-07-15, version 2.0*

Total coins 16286720, highest score on the 5x5: 168660. Now it closes itself out when I open it, had to delete the games and reinstall. So much for being able to use coins

### 5/5 — Yeh

*2018-06-26, version 2.0*

It’s addicting.

### 5/5 — Great but too many ads

*2018-04-16*

I love this game, but the ads are a bit too frequent, and very long. I like that it's free though, so I won't complain too much.

### 5/5 — Keeps dying

*2018-03-30*

I never had a problem with this app until I purchased it. Now it crashes repeatedly and completely wiped out my score and coins. It’s also continually wanting me to download the new whiteout 2. Why would I when purchasing the app has only led to frustration - I will stick to the stupid ads and see if that fixes the daily crashes. If it doesn’t I will make sure I never purchase an app from this developer again.

### 5/5 — Great

*2018-03-03*

This is a great 2048 game, my favourite and tried most of them. Download it now!!
