2048

Overview

2048 for the BBC Micro was developed by Eben Upton and published by the Raspberry Pi Foundation (yes, that Raspberry Pi Foundation) as a means to have a BBC Micro version of the popular number/mathematical base puzzle game for Retro Pie's BBC Micro Core. It was developed and released in 2014. Since the game is a BBC Micro game, you don't need an actual Raspberry Pi system to play the game, as it can be played on a BBC Micro or on any of the BBC Micro emulators.

Game description:

2048 is a puzzle game.

The game begins with two tiles each numbered "2" on the grid. The player can move the tiles around the grid, but with every move a new tile randomly appears. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into a new tile with the number multiplied by two. E.g. if two tiles with "4's" are merged they will form a single "8" tile. The game is based on an earlier puzzle 1024 and is a conceptual elaboration of Threes!.
