User reviews

I love this game!

I love that this game is laid back and challenging at the same time! It’s a great wind-down game and super cute on top of that!

So Fun! So Cute!

I built this game because I wanted a version of this gameplay that had fun and whimsy but also elevated number sliding games.
The kittens came first. Once I saw the tiles in play, I knew I was onto something. Now there are tons characters across several themes - cats, dogs, fruit and veg. Each one has a name and a nickname, and the little faces blink and yawn between moves.
Special tiles keep things interesting past the point where classic 2048 gets stale. But honestly I keep coming back for the characters.
