In 2048, you score points when tiles merge. The points gained equal the value of the new tile created by the merge. For example, merging 32 + 32 creates a 64 and adds 64 points.
This means the biggest scoring opportunities come from repeated merges of high-value tiles.
Scoring Examples
- 2 + 2 → 4 points
- 64 + 64 → 128 points
- 512 + 512 → 1024 points
- 1024 + 1024 → 2048 points
How to Score More
- Create many mid-level merges (128–512) consistently.
- Avoid clutter so you can keep merging instead of getting stuck.
- Delay risky big merges until your board can recover.
