The highest score stays in this browser. There is no ranking. The link restarts that board from the first tiles and does not keep the current score. Today’s board uses this device’s date.
Why this exists
One round can last minutes or a long sitting. After 2048 the board stays open until it sticks.
This is not a reaction test. It is 2048: slide equal numbers on a 4×4 board.

02What you get
The large number is the score. Before the first move it is a dash, then it rises from 0.
When 2048 appears, that tile stays, and the board can continue toward a larger tile.

How this page works it out
The 2048 game is a 4×4 board. Equal numbers double when you slide them one way, and a tile merges once per move. After a move a 2 appears, and one in ten new tiles is a 4.
Reaching 2048 does not close the board. You can keep going toward a larger tile until no move remains. Undo cancels the last move.
