How HexMerge works

How do I play HexMerge?

Tap or arrow-key in any of four directions. All tiles slide that way; same-value tiles merge into the next power of 2. The board spawns a new tile after each move. The game ends when the board is full and no merges are possible. Goal: beat your best score.

How is HexMerge different from 2048?

Mechanically HexMerge is the same as 2048 — 4×4 grid, same merge rules. The differences: hex-shaped tile visuals via CSS clip-path, a hex-color palette that maps tile value to color, persistent best-score tracking via localStorage, and a focus on the endless score-attack loop rather than the original 2048 "reach 2048 to win" framing.

Is there a way to win?

HexMerge is endless — there is no "win" condition. The game ends only when no more moves are possible. The score is your reward; aim to beat your best.

Where is my best score stored?

In your browser's localStorage only. We have no accounts, no server-side storage. Clearing your browser data will reset your best score.

Is HexMerge free?

Yes. HexMerge is free — no ads, no paywall, no signup wall. It is supported by an optional free email newsletter, and any affiliate links to related products are clearly disclosed.
