Tap one tile, then another with the same number, to merge them into the next power of two.
Reach the target number shown above the board to win.
If the board is full with no equal pair, or you run out of tiles, you are stuck. Undo and Restart are always available.

Controls: mouse or touch. Made by CalcoTools.

Merge small pairs as soon as you have two, so the board never fills with low numbers.
You can merge any two equal tiles, wherever they are, so keep similar numbers anywhere you like.

The supply is only a little more than the target needs, so do not waste tiles.
