This shelf holds versions that add something to the original, for example falling blocks and time pressure, so a familiar rule gets a new challenge. Every version runs in a browser on phones and computers, with no install and no account. The board state and your record stay on your device, so closing the tab does not erase the game. How to play 2048 better: keep the biggest tile in a corner, build a row of decreasing numbers along one edge and do not break it in a panic when the board fills up. In the falling-block variants time is added, so you plan two moves ahead. Every version on this shelf is free and runs on phones and computers. If classic 2048 got dull because nothing hurries you, try the falling-blocks variant: the same merging rule, but every second you think changes the board. Your record and the board itself stay on your phone, so you can come back to the same game. 2048 and block games: CRUNCH, 2048 Blockfall. ### Which 2048 games are on this shelf 2048 Blockfall joins the 2048 rule with falling blocks: a numbered tile drops from the top, you move it sideways and down, and equal numbers merge into bigger ones. The tower grows until it hits the ceiling, so every move is a plan for the next two. CRUNCH is a one-thumb puzzle from the same family: you slide and crush blocks until the board is clear, with no timer. Both keep a record on your device and play upright on a phone. ### The rules of 2048 in three sentences The board is four by four. You push all tiles in one direction, and two tiles with the same number that touch merge into one with double the value: 2 and 2 make 4, 4 and 4 make 8, and so on up to 2048. After every move a new 2 or 4 appears; the game ends when no move is possible. Block versions change one thing: tiles fall, so gravity and time join in. ### How to play 2048 on a phone and on a computer On a phone you swipe in the direction the tiles should go; in Blockfall a sideways swipe positions the block and a downward swipe drops it. On a computer you use the arrow keys. Full screen hides the browser bar, and the board fits the screen width, so on a phone you see the whole board without scrolling. ### Record and leaderboard Your record and the board state are saved in the browser on this device, so you return to the same game after a break. Where a game has a leaderboard, the record goes there under a nickname, with no account. The game page also shows how many times it has been played and what other players write. ## Questions about this shelf Is 2048 on klyo free? Yes. No in-game payments, no premium version and no limit on rounds. ### Do I need to install anything? No. 2048 opens in the browser, in the same tab, on a phone or a computer. ### How is 2048 Blockfall different from classic 2048? The same merging rule, but tiles fall from the top like blocks. Gravity and time join in, so you plan moves ahead instead of pushing the whole board. ### Will my record survive closing the tab? Yes. The record and the board are saved in the browser on this device. Clearing browser data removes them. ### What is the best 2048 strategy? Keep the biggest tile in a corner, build a row of decreasing numbers along one edge and do not break it in a panic when the board fills up. Move away from the corner only when there is no other option. ## Made a game that belongs on this shelf?
