What is Daily 2048?

Daily 2048 is a 5×5 tile-merging puzzle. Swipe or use arrow keys to slide all tiles in one direction. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one with double the value.

Your goal is to create a tile with the value 2048 — and beyond! The board is 5×5, giving you more room to maneuver than the classic 4×4 version.

Tips & Strategy

Pick a corner and build your highest tile there. Always push toward that corner.
Avoid moving tiles in the opposite direction of your chosen corner strategy.
Keep your highest row or column full to prevent new small tiles from blocking merges.
Use the undo button when you make a move that doesn't go as planned.
In the 5×5 grid, you have an extra row and column — use it as a buffer zone.
Focus on merging chains: set up rows where tiles can cascade-merge for big points.
Don't just chase 2048 — try to fill the board with high tiles for maximum score.
