Winning Strategies

Corner Focus

Pick a corner (usually bottom right) and build your highest tile there. This creates stability and better merging opportunities.

Direction Matters

Prioritize moves in this order: right > down > left > up. This "snake" pattern helps maintain organization.

Plan Ahead

Always think 2-3 moves ahead. Anticipate where new tiles will appear and how they'll affect your board.
