Help for launching, merging, and keeping lanes alive.

2048 Block is a one-handed iPhone puzzle about launching blocks into five lanes, creating connected merges, and using earned power-ups at the right moment.

Quick guide

Playing 2048 Block

Choose a lane

Drag the queued block left or right. It snaps between the five column centers and highlights the current launch path.

Launch the block

Tap the queued block, swipe upward, or tap the selected open lane to send the block into place.

Make connected matches

Blocks match when the same value touches above, below, left, or right. Diagonal contact does not merge.

Plan for chains

After each merge, spaces close and the board checks again. Good placement can turn one launch into several merge steps.

Use power-ups carefully

Undo, Swap, and Hit recharge through launches. They are earned by play, not bought with coins or purchases.

Resume later

Your current board, queued block, selected lane, power-up meters, and undo history are saved locally.

Power-ups

What each power-up does

Power-ups recharge by playing successful moves. They do not use virtual currency, subscriptions, or in-app purchases.

Undo

Available after 5 launched blocks. Restores a previous board decision when an undo snapshot exists.

Swap

Available after 10 launched blocks. Exchange two existing blocks, then let any new matches resolve.

Hit

Available after 20 launched blocks. Break one selected block and create a tactical gap for possible merges.

Reset Game

Use Settings to clear the current board and start from a fresh valid opening state.

Troubleshooting

Things to try first

A lane will not launch

The selected lane may be full or the board may still be resolving an animation. Choose another open lane or wait until movement completes.

Blocks did not merge diagonally

Only orthogonal contact counts: above, below, left, or right. Diagonal blocks do not merge.

Power-up is not ready

Undo recharges after 5 moves, Swap after 10, and Hit after 20. The icon fill shows recharge progress.

Progress disappeared

Progress is stored locally on device. If the app was deleted or device storage was cleared, the saved board may not be recoverable.
