About

Thress

Features
Read full description

Welcome to Threes! You are presented with a grid of tiles containing sliding numbers. Each time you press an arrow key, all the tiles will move. When two tiles with the same number meet, they merge into one tile with double the value. The ultimate goal is to reach the largest possible number, 2048, but the exact number remains a mystery; even with an optimal strategy, luck still plays a role. Choose to play and start searching for the highest number at the end!
