My friends and I made a parody of 2048 inspired by all the controversy about Threes and 2048, and how the latter is too easy. Your goal is to fill the board and run out of moves as quickly as possible, but there's an AI playing against you, so it's harder than it sounds.

We'd really appreciate any feedback and thoughts about the game, or criticism about bringing another unnecessary 2048 variant into the world.

I may be mistaken, but I think you folks made it impossible to win -- new tiles that spawn always have a tile that they can merge into, so there can never be a lack of moves available.

Agreed. I had it reduced to a single tile available, yet there was no way to win. Every new tile matched one above or to the side of it.

Co-developer here- Not quite. It is possible, but you have to have the right kinds of tiles in the right positions. I won't give away the algorithm, but I do know it can be beaten. Not easily, perhaps, but certainly possible.
