It's strange to me that the Fibonacci numbers game is easier somehow. Flappy48 is a fun idea but I will retire permanently with the all time high score of 16.

This isn't really surprising. In the Fibonacci game, the way you combine numbers is different. You combine numbers with numbers greater than or less than the number, not equal to. It makes sense that this would change the ease with which you can align compatible numbers.

It took me a while, but I did it!

I finally did it!

I don't care about your higher scores, or that it only took you one day to solve it, because now I can get it out of my system and go do important things out there...

Okay, I'm officially retiring from playing this game. I have reached the mountaintop that is the 4096 tile.

I can't see your pic Andro, nor can I with multiple other pics you've posted lately. Anyone else have that problem?

Even more fun (to me) is the data.

I just got 4096!
Wow, this is well over a year old. I must have added an awful lot of 2's.

I've been watching a lot of videos on the Youtube channel Numberphile, and I came across one from 2014 where math professors react to this game. I'm somewhat surprised the Fine Brothers haven't had it taken down...
