I got a 16384 tile on that new version. I want to stop playing it as there is no skill involved. Please let me stop playing it.

I can't even display that on my laptop monitor in full size! It will take some serious time to get it anywhere near complete.
CTRL + "-"!
I'm so tempted to write a macro that just presses 'left' and 'up' to randomly solve that....
Sub Do2048()
Dim FlipFlop As Boolean, StopTime As Date, FlipFlopTime As Date
FlipFlop = False
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:05")
StopTime = Now + TimeValue("00:10:30")
Do Until Now > StopTime
FlipFlop = Not FlipFlop
FlipFlopTime = Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Do Until Now > FlipFlopTime
If FlipFlop Then
Application.SendKeys "{LEFT}"
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
Application.SendKeys "{DOWN}"
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
Else
Application.SendKeys "{RIGHT}"
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
Application.SendKeys "{DOWN}"
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
End If
Loop
Loop
AppActivate "Microsoft Excel"
MsgBox "Done!"
End Sub

19920? YOU !

I give up. I was almost getting 20100 to beat the last new lowest score but 19920 I can't see me getting without changing the way I'm doing things.

bow Fair play, I've not played this since posting my score and will admit I'm not even going to try and beat that...

Finally got 4096 tile with a score of 44256 and my best score for 2048 tiles is 20116. TBH i thought there would be more some message for reaching 4096. has anyone worked out what the max score you can achieve is. confused

I will include pics when i get home.... This has been my time waster at work and i can't upload pics from my work's computer.

It's the minimum score for completion that interests me. But I've given up on that one!

It's a case of working out the best way to do things then it's a matter of time before it gets solved. A bit of luck helps.
