What is Reddit's opinion of 2048 by Gabriele Cirulli?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

These guys are being pricks, don't worry about them. 2048 is a puzzle game that was quite popular about a year ago. The goal is to slide tiles together to eventually form the number 2048. Here's the game online, and here is the link to the app

There's no mobile app with the same leaderboard support as 2048 Masters but there are good no undo versions. Here are the versions made by 2048 creator Gabriele Cirulli:

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gabrielecirulli.app2048&hl=en_GB

iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/2048-by-gabriele-cirulli/id868076805?mt=8

You should link the official version: Android / iOS

There are so many terrible clones out there.

I don't know about everyone else here, but back in 2014, (before I even knew what what CCNA or binary was and all I had in my mind was Subway Surfers), I spent some of my free time of my childhood playing the 2048 game. I remember it was famous quite then.

If I'm not mistaken, it is exactly this version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gabrielecirulli.app2048

Later when I started studying for CCNA and subnetting, I noticed that the numbers were already forced into my mind and that I could count up to 8192 without pausing. All thanks to that game back then. Give it a try!

In case anyone wants to know, the original one is here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gabrielecirulli.app2048

Edit: Ffs, that is the original 2048. I know it was inspired by threes and bought it as well because of the mention the 2048 dev included in the app. Threes wasn't viral, 2048 was.

Uhh, the official original version doesn't have and undo button...

As glis mentioned, you can find the browser game that became very popular here.

That same creator made this Android app. Depending on your perspective, you could say that was the original (because it was built by the author of the original browser game). However, I don't know if another Android app was built first.

The last thing, this one is far more popular on the Play Store.

2048 is excellent. Simple and addictive.

Hope you enjoy.

At work? Nothing better than 2048 :) Seriously, it's fast, easy to operate with one thumb (so you can work with the other one ;)), automatically saves progress when you are interrupted...

Also - there are pretty nice games in... Facebook Messenger! I'm not joking, there's nice version of 2048 (called Templar 2048) but also many others. Hex FRVR is great.

The official (Gabriele-blessed) ports of 2048 to iOS and to Android make no mention at all of Ketchapp. Gabriele mentions PhoneGap instead here and in the blog post linked from the same place. For a long time he actually didn't even want to have "app ports” of the game.

Ketchapp's iOS port of 2048 is a different app on the iTunes app store, and I can't see an Android port by them at all, so it would seem they're just one of the (many) companies that rode the success of 2048 and released their own version. Which wouldn't be surprising considering your experience with them.

Please consider installing the official version from the Play Store rather than the knock off version you had. By doing so you support the game's creator rather than someone who simply took the open source project and served it up as their own. It can be found here:
