### 2/5 — !!!

*2024-12-05*

Игра после последнего обновления не рабочая. Поддерживаю предыдущие отзывы. Вылетает тут же, не открывается!

### 2/5 — O jogo é legal mas tem muito anúncio a todo instante. Muito chato

*2023-09-27*

Muito chato os anúncios

### 3/5 — Needs work…

*2023-07-30, version 3.0*

2248 is one of my favorite games, however the logic for this brand is not quite as intuitive as other brands I’ve played. I’m still trying to figure out the best combinations to get the highest block. The circle numbers are more difficult for me to spot patterns than the squares are. Creating higher numbers doesn’t eliminate lower numbers so the possible sequences get shorter. Would like options for diff color combos, as well as shapes to select from. Also needs a brief reference guide to explain math logic etc. I’m still looking for an infinity version of this game that doesn’t end by creating an infinity block. This version ends rather quickly so far due to increased number variety on the board. Still fairly new to testing this version, will update if experience changes substantially over time.
UPDATE 1:
I’m used to rounding UP for increased chain sequences in groups of 3,  this app rounds DOWN:
EXAMPLE:
BIGDOGS:
2+2+2= 4
Other brands:
2+2+2= 8
I prefer the idea of a reward/rounding up for increased chains.

### 1/5 — Too Many ads!!!

*2022-09-21, version 2.7*

Can’t play for more than 25-30 seconds without an ad appearing. Ridiculous. Unnecessary and terrible. Do not install.

### 1/5 — Удалила

### 2/5 — AS BIG AS APPLE IS WHY IS APP STORE LIKE A CARNEY SIDESHOW

*2022-05-19, version 2.5*

ENJOY THIS GAME.

WOW. BAD REVIEWS AND STILL HAVE A 4.8 RATING.  SOMEBODY KnoWS SOMEBODY IN HIGH PLACES.

RIGHT TO IT.

I USED TO  ENJOY THIS GAME. PLAYED  FOR HOURS AND DAYS AND MONTHS.

 THEN IT STARTED .

DEVELOPER JUMPED ON THE AD HAPPY GREEDY DEVELOPERS  IN THE APP STORE BANDWAGON!

HAVING AND AD POP UP EVERY TIME I REACHED A NEW HIGHER NUMBER, ENTERING INTO GAME, CHANGING SCREEN, RESETTING, SETTINGS BUTTON, TAP TAP TAP AD AD AD AD!

I HAVE BEEN WATCHING THE OTHER DEVELOPERS RATINGS ON GAMES I DELETED DUE TO EXTREME OVER USE  OF ADS.  DOWN RATINGS ARE FALLING RAPIDLY.

USERS ARE FED UP.

ALSO, THE GAME NEVER ASKED FOR ME TO ACCEPT THE PRIVACY POLICY BEFORE I PLAY THE GAME. NOW EHEN I GO TO GIVE A CHANCE AGAIN AND DOWNLOAD, I HAVE TO ACEPT THE PRIVACY POLICY TO PLAY. NO THANKS.

### 1/5 — Used to be good, now sucks

*2026-03-03, version 3.3*

### 1/5 — ):

### 1/5 — Kaum angefangen und schon die erste Werbung …

*2024-04-14*

### 1/5 — Too many adds.

*2024-03-31, version 3.1*

This game used to actually be fun to play, because you could play a full game without an add. There were still adds after a game was over, but that was tolerable. Now they have changed it so there is an add EVERY TIME you reach a higher number achievement. It is so infuriating. I used to play this game all the time and it was a lot of fun, but now it is just god awful because of the inability to play a full game through without an add. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Great game until…

*2023-11-12, version 3.0*

Seems they’ve been hacked by some Amazon scam that constantly interrupts the game by shooting you to its website.

### 1/5 — 2248

*2023-09-01, version 3.0*

### 1/5 — Ads

*2022-12-07, version 2.8*

I purchased the ad-free version and I am still getting ads. It makes it too annoying to play.

### 5/5 — Great game - simple and fun and relaxing

*2026-01-18, version 3.3*

I really love this game. I paid to remove ads and it’s worth it. I have it on the black background so it’s clean, peaceful and fun to play. I love to try and keep a game going for a few weeks at a time, so it’s fun to open the app while I’m waiting a queue or for an appointment and make a few quick moves. It’s the perfect game to play while listening to an audiobook or podcast. To the developers: please don’t ever make it more animated or fancy - it’s perfect as is and a really nice change from other overly fancy games.

### 5/5 — не работает игра

### 5/5 — I got my mom addicted

*2024-03-08, version 3.0*

And she often comes to me to ask me to help her out when she’s about Toruń out of options, it’s fun untangling the mess and make them all tidy again.

### 5/5 — 1 Billion Points!

*2022-12-26, version 2.8*

Love the game and have played it for years! Totally worth it! Challenge you to get to a billion points too! Took me 2 years and counting : )

### 5/5 — Love love love this app

*2022-12-05, version 2.8*

I originally downloaded because the numbers were significant to me. A month later and I still haven’t stopped playing it. I love the option to remove the ads. That way I can play nonstop.

### 5/5 — Pure Play

*2022-11-17, version 2.8*

Unlike other 2248 puzzles, this game is simple and no pressure.

Unlike the others which want money to continue and get scores out of reach, this game is a genuine puzzle and fun.  

Stick with the fundamentals.

Love it.
