I’ve played this for years it helps me relax when I’m stressed out or bored at work. I like to listen to music while I play it due to it just being a numbers game and does not need audio at all but this game is almost impossible to play anymore with music. They constantly have ads on the lower part of the screen that pause my songs and I have to unpause at least 10 times a game and it’s getting to the point I can’t even play the game anymore because of it. I unpause my music and it immediately moves to another ad and pauses it again I’m lucky to get 5 moves in a minute. It Used to be really fun and used to not have problems with it at all but it’s getting to the point I’m trying to find a new comfort game due to this one being unplayable with music. I know is such a small thing but I’ve played for years and have a routine with playing and it’s completely different now.

I spent a long time working hard to get good at 2048. It took a long time, but eventually I was able to get good enough that I felt I could beat other players in the multiplayer part of 2048… But my dreams were crushed. When I decided it was finally time to tackle my goals and play multiplayer, it wouldn’t load. I got into a game with someone I knew personally, and no matter how long I waited or how much hope I had, it would not load. I realized I could never beat someone in multiplayer 2048…because I could never play multiplayer 2048. It was the biggest disappointment I had ever experienced. So, I deleted the game and whenever I saw anyone else playing it I made them delete it too. Seeing anything related to 2048 made me emotional. Once, in math class, the answer to a problem was 2048, and I had to go see the school counselor to “work through my trauma.” Thank you for reading this review, especially because it was so hard for me to write mentally. I hope you take the idea of fixing the multiplayer part of your game into consideration—it would mean the world to me.

This is by far my favorite game. It involves puzzles and strategy without feeling like you're being tested. Beating high scores and comparing with friends had become one of my favorite activities. There are a few ads as with any free mobile game, but typically only after playing for a long period of time (I'm talking hours, yes I'll play that long) and one short add when you first open the game. I haven't had any problems with bugs or glitches, while I am a fairly new user I have already "beat the game" or reached the 2048 tile, and am yet to experience any issues. Like I said previously I have beat the game (I am very proud of this accomplishment and it inspired me to write the review) yet the game is still fun challenging and just as amazing as before which will keep it on my phone for the long run. Once again I highly recommend, at least give it a try.
