$2048=2^{11}$ and I now officially hate this number. Why? Because I just couldn’t beat the games of 2048:

2048 by Gabriele Cirulli

These two guys @gabrielecirulli/2048 and @saming/2048¹, must be intentionally cloning the game “1024” to torture us! I spent hours and couldn’t even get past 512 and 128.

After hours playing, peeling away from the game, the web browser and terminal windows all looked kind of funny. The text somehow looked like smaller. So strange.

The game’s dynamic is so simple just four arrow keys, and $1+1=2$, $2+2=4$, …. But it’s just a trap, it’s way harder than what it seems. Gotta go back to play Minesweeper, at least, it gives me the chance to win.
