2048 Drop

2048 Drop is a fast-paced, speed-play oriented fan remake of the Coolmath Games title Number Drop, where two all-time classic puzzle games combine, Tetris and 2048.

Drop tiles next to tiles of the same value and they will merge into a higher value tile, freeing up space to drop more tiles and increase your score.

Instructions

Use ← and → to position the active tile.

Use SPACE to hard drop the tile.

Use the Q W E SPACE I O P keys to speed drop into one of the 7 columns instantly (if the tile can still make it there).

Use ESC to pause/unpause.

Use R to reset when the game is paused or stopped.
