CLUSTER TILES-GAME-PUZZLE · 30 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-02-03

2048-style tile merge games

This cluster consists of 29 web and mobile versions of the 2048 sliding-tile puzzle, where players merge matching numbered tiles to reach higher values. The 11 dated entries are sporadic, appearing from March 2014 through February 2026, with a minor grouping of three in February 2026; 17 members lack source dates, so the overall history is incomplete. The traction leaders are '2048', 'exp-drop', and '2048 Open Fun Game', each with zero activity stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
