Merge Tiles

Slide numbered tiles and merge matching pairs to build the biggest tile you can.

How to play

  1. Use the arrow keys or swipe on the board to slide every tile in that direction.
  2. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one tile with their sum.
  3. A new tile appears after every move that changes the board.
  4. The game ends when the board is full and no merge is possible. Your best score is saved on this device.

Tips and strategy

  • Keep your largest tile in a corner and avoid moving in the opposite direction unless forced.
  • Build a descending chain along one edge so merges cascade in a single swipe.
  • Prefer moves that merge tiles over moves that only slide them.
  • Plan two moves ahead: a move that leaves a gap next to your big tile is rarely worth it.

FAQ

Can I undo a move?
Yes, one level of undo is available with the Undo button. It is deliberately limited so each move matters.
Does the game work on a phone?
Yes. Swipe anywhere on the board; the page will not scroll while you swipe the board.
