How to play 2048 Ballz

The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. Nothing about the control scheme is unusual; the table below covers all of it. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. Take the first run as practice and the second one seriously.

Why it is worth playing

Plenty of puzzle games want a tutorial and ten minutes of setup before anything happens. 2048 Ballz does not — it is playable from the first second. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
