Here’s how the game works:

Start on a 4×4 Grid:You’ll begin with two tiles showing a 2 or 4.
Swipe to Move Tiles:Use arrow keys (↑, ↓, ←, →) to push all tiles in one direction.
Merge Matching Numbers:When two tiles with the same number collide, they merge into one tile with their combined value.
New Tile After Each Move:After every swipe, a new “2” or “4” appears at a random spot on the grid.
Reach 2048…:If you create a 2048 tile, you win! 🚀
Avoid Filling the Board:If you run out of moves and the grid is full, the game ends ☹️

Tip: Keep high-value tiles in a corner and plan your swipes to avoid blocking yourself.
