The viral game 2048, created by Gabriele Cirulli, should already be known to most of you through Android and iOS apps. While casual gaming is not exactly done on PC, giving the game a go at http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ is a perfect way to turn boring hours into a fun mental exercise.
This game creates the deception of a slow and relaxing game where you tap away at your arrow keys carelessly to see the blocks slide into one another with grace, as higher powers of 2 pop out at their place. However, as the tempo builds and the numbers climb into higher powers, you will find yourself digging into the annals of your cerebral cortex and think several moves ahead to find that perfect move that will ultimately display the number 2048 on the screen, winning the game.
But the best part is that despite the fact that you will find yourself glued to the game all the time you try it, never taking your eyes of screen for the fear of interrupting the process of calculating the long chains to proceed to the next power of 2 happening in your brain, your brain will never end up feeling burnt out and exhausted. Nope. Instead, it will scream for more.
In essence, you get a nice brain workout, a time-killer, and an epic casual puzzle game with an incredible replay value all in one go.
And the feeling you get when you finally do beat the game (And take a screenshot of it to show off to your pals) is unmatched.
