2048 Large 6x6 Grid
Play 2048 on a massive 6x6 grid. Reach higher numbers, unlock new tiles, and test your strategy with more space. Free, mobile-friendly, and auto-saves.
HOW TO PLAY: Use your arrow keys or swipe to move the tiles. When two tiles with the same number touch, they merge into one!
About
This is an expanded variation of the classic sliding tile puzzle, featuring a 6×6 grid instead of the standard 4×4. The core objective remains the same: combine tiles with the same number to create larger values, aiming for 2048 and beyond.
With 36 tiles (compared to 16), the risk of gridlock is lower, allowing for significantly longer games and much higher scores. It is not uncommon to reach tiles like 16384 or 65536. The larger board requires a modified strategy, focusing on maintaining multiple "snake" chains to organize high-value blocks without cluttering the center.
Formulas
The game operates on powers of two. A tile's value v can be expressed as:
v = 2n
Where n is the number of merges required plus one. The total number of squares on the board is S:
S = 6 × 6 = 36
The maximum theoretical tile value Tmax in a perfect game (assuming 4 spawns periodically) is approximately:
Tmax ≈ 236+1
Note: In practice, achieving this is statistically impossible due to random spawn placement.
