Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Love this game but it has started ending with moves still available and flashing annoying ads May have to part company Gayle.
Love the game but before we can finish or win it crashes every time.
This game is super fun but it keeps crashing it needs fixed ASAP.
The game is good, but every time we play for a while it backs out on its own and loses our progress.
Fun but still crashes when you get too high.
We love the game, but it backs out everytime and looses our progress.
Love the game if it would stop crashing that would be great.
We got the upgrade after 2 hours and it stopped working completely.
So Im among the many who will probably complain about this but the game backs out. Ive noticed that it backs out once there are no more moves left WHICH we were initially fine with but we got to the point where we are able to merge two 1024s together and we had many room left. However after a few moves of trying to get those two numbers to merge, our game crashes and it restarts it all over again. Definitely frustrated as we assumed the back out was just for when there arent any moves left but it looks like it can just happen randomly.
Every time our square gets filled up with numbers it crashes and we have to start over.
Always kicks us out it is really annoying need to fix it.
Love the game but it crashes EVERY time we get to the 2048.
Love this game but every time we’re about to beat it it crashes. FIX NOW PLZ.
Great game; no pop up ads & stellar app support.
Very good we just wish there was no ads.
It’s a good game but it has an annoying ad every once in awhile.
Clever game, complicated enough to keep us occupied and coming back again and again.
This game is very convenient for us. We can play it for minute or for 10 minutes and it occupies our time.
Enjoyable, fast and not hard, although you do need to think in order to get higher points.
Need to think a bit, but plays quick and fun.
EVERYONE at our school has this game and we love it so much!! The best part about it is that we get to play it in math class because it’s a math game! But we only get to play it in class if we are done with our work. But we love this game so much.
This is a fantastic game. Just download and play it. You won’t regret it.
This game is super fun! We love it.
Amazing app! The developer is awesome as well.
We know the guy that made this app. He deserves 5 stars.
We really love this game even though it is really addicting.
Fun to play while watching tv especially because it never ends. Challenging like a card game and does require some strategy but not all of your attention to at.
We Play this a lot and we would recommend this game to others. We would really wish there were power ups or something. Other wise. GREAT game. :-).
This game is a fun educational game but every time the bored fills up and there are still matches we can make a ad pops up and then our game is over.
This is just another 2048 game. But it is pretty fun.
Great game but it’s driving us nuts. We give it 5 stars.
We like that this game has an end to it. Plus we can start a game anywhere anytime to help pass the time when waiting in lines or for our wife to get finish in a store, etc. We can also pause to continue at a later time in the day.
We’ve been in 2048 withdraw since the iOS8 update. The update has fixed the crashing issue (yay!). We do have a weird glitch now where a tile slides all the way off the board and then stays that extra bit away, as if there is an invisible tile in the way of sliding. It actually still combines with the tile it should and the first time in the game we kept going and it fixed itself but then it happened a few more times and just really throws things off. As soon as that gets fixed we’ll be back to spending all our free time trying to beat our current high score.
Absolutely love the game, but it keeps crashing on iOS 8.
Totally addictive. Would even be cooler if it had sound. Nothing crazy or pinball-machine like, but it just feels like it needs sound.
Simple and addictive. Two of our favorite things in a game.
Update is fun! Don’t push the button. Haha.
This app crashes after 40 seconds. We’re deleting, thanks for the fun while it lasted.
We’ve started playing and have become addicted. But can finish any games. Keeps crashing! Sometimes it’s only a second into the game or others are a minute or two. Please fix soon.
Love the game but it keeps crashing since the update. We have not been able to finish a game.
Love the game, but it doesn’t work with iOS 8. Fix this and we’ll definitely give it five stars.
The game crashes every time. Unable to play.
It is a great game but keeps crashing ever since IOS8 came out…..wait for the update.
We don’t know how we can wait for busses anymore without this game.
This is one addictive number puzzle game.
Challenging is just the word for this game. Thinking and planning ahead are required to even get a 1000 pts. Wish there was a one step undo on the game tho so you fix a nice made too wuickly.
We are addicted to this game. A lot of people we know don’t like to be addicted on a game like us, but this app doesn’t give you this feeling. The objective game is very simple. Swipe pairs of numbers to get the number 2048. For us this game is not confusing because almost everyone we know plays it so they taught us. This game is so much fun, one of our best app choices ever.
Hard unless you have an IQ above 148.
This is SO fun. We spend entirely too much time playing it.
This game is so much fun. You just keep matching the same numbers, to get bigger numbers, and hopefully get to 2048. It’s a bit confusing at first, but once you get it, it’s so hard to stop! Love this game so much. Try it out.
