2048 Bricks – Tips and Tricks Guide: Hints, Cheats, and Strategies

2048 Bricks is a new game for the iOS and Android platforms by Ketchapp, putting a twist on the years-old 2048 concept by merging it with Tetris to make a brand new game concept. Your goal is to earn the highest score that you possibly can by merging like number tiles in order to make even higher-point tiles and increase your own score. Read on for some tips and tricks for 2048 Bricks!

You can spend 200 coins to unlock a new skin for the tiles, but to earn the coins, you have two main methods. One of them is to earn the coins in the game itself; the other is to go to the tile select screen and watch ad videos. Each ad video will earn you 50 free gems, and you can watch as many of them as you want.

If you want to add a bit more of a risk to the videos, then scroll to one of the other locked tile skins, and you’ll be able to spin to win instead. The spin will allow you to earn anywhere from 5 coins to 100 coins at a time, so depending on your luck (or your penchant for free gambling), you can earn coins even more quickly this way.

Within the game itself, your goal is to score the most amount of points that you possibly can. You get random drops anywhere from a 2-point tile to a 64-point tile, so your best bet is to section off the high numbers and the low numbers into different columns, and then work the stacks from there – for example, if you have a column beginning with a 64, then drop your 32s on it. Then start the stacks over again as high numbers take residence below them.

Despite the fact that the game is named 2048 Bricks, you can get higher tiles than just 2048. Merging two of the 2048s, for example, will give you a 4096 tile. Merging two of the 4096 tiles will give you an 8192 tile, and so on and so forth. This is how the massive scores appear in the top score list for the game.

Once you lose at a level, you will be given the option to watch an advertisement video in order to start it over again from where you left off at. This applies even if you have already set a high score at a level, so if you have already set the high score, then you can lift it clear out of reach by watching a video and being successful at merging even more high tiles afterwards.
