1024 – Math Puzzle

About the game

“1024” is a number-based puzzle game that challenges players to combine tiles with matching numbers to eventually create a tile with the number 1024. The game is played on a 4×4 grid, and it begins with two numbered tiles. Players slide tiles in one of the four cardinal directions (up, down, left, or right), and when two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one tile, doubling their number. The player’s goal is to keep combining tiles to reach the 1024 tile.

Each move introduces a new tile to the board, typically numbered 2 or 4, which adds to the complexity of the game. Strategic thinking and planning are essential in “1024,” as players must consider not only their current move but also future moves to avoid filling the board and reaching a point where no more moves are possible.

The game ends when the board is filled and no more tiles can be combined, or when the player successfully creates the 1024 tile. Achieving the 1024 tile is a significant accomplishment, but players can continue to play to achieve higher numbers and scores. “1024” is praised for its simplicity and addictive gameplay, making it a popular choice for puzzle enthusiasts looking for a quick and challenging game.
