I have a version installed that allows a larger grid, this play through is over 5 years old.

'Super 2048' has the option for larger grids, but I like the classic 4x4. The undo button breaks it, though. This game is still ongoing.

Just tried to check, looks like it's not in the Play store anymore ☹️

Guess next time I get a new phone the game will end

I used to play this game so much in high school. Like, for at least an hour a day (when I should have been paying attention in class). Never had an undo button, made it to 16384 once. I have never even considered using a snaking pattern, I always did one side & top (so all rows increased or decreased in the same direction, as opposed to in alternating direction). That is so smart.

Start with the corner, eventually you just have to move to the snake.

I think the undo button was Android-only

LordPassionFruit@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 1y

I've only ever owned Android, but I was playing over a decade ago. Might just be misremembering, or might predate it's addition.

that seems like a strange thing go be OS-dependent. I wonder why that is the case, if so

Conspiracy:
They always wanted to do Apple but it was a mistake.
As they didnt have an undo button back then, they couldnt go back anymore ;)

Undo? Filthy casual. Lol.

AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net · 9 pts · 1y

Whilst I understand the sentiment, I gotta respect someone who is unashamedly embracing their id and chasing that dopamine rush

JackbyDev@programming.dev · 5 pts · 1y

There's nothing wrong with using undo, there only something wrong with lying about it.

Almacca@aussie.zone · 1 pts · 1y

If the game allows you to do it, it's not cheating. ;)

I always did my snake to the bottom left, funny how it looks off to me.

CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 4 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I always did mine on the upper left.

Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone · 2 pts · 1y

That's where mine goes

It's always sad to me that the dumber, easier knockoff game got popular.

I get it. 2048 isn't challenging and gives that low effort dopamine.

Thanks for the rec
