Fascinating mixture of two popular puzzle games! Swipe any direction to move. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one and other tiles with this number disappear. You can only move to an empty space. Don't get locked in! Get to the 2048 tile, and reach a high score. Inspired by - Gabriele Cirulli game "2048" http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ - Daniel Lutz game "Folt" http://foltgame.tumblr.com/
