About 4096 Game

For anyone who now finds 2048 a little thin, this mode raises the bar to double on the same cramped 4×4. The trick is squeezing every square, because doubling again from 2048 leaves almost no margin for error.

How it's played

The board and the gestures are the classic ones, but the win only lands when you manufacture the 4096 tile. That means carrying on carefully well past the point where an ordinary game would already have ended.

Strategy

Treat 2048 as a waypoint rather than a destination: plan from the first move for the space you will need afterwards.
On this tight 4×4, manage the small tiles with real care — every square you waste costs you double.
Steer clear of impulsive moves down the final stretch; this close to 4096, one slip can leave you with no way out.
