Fun game! Now if only you can manage to get 2048 upvotes for it... :)
Done! Did I win HN?
Looking at the amount of karma, I'd say yes. Yes, you did. Congratulations!

#383Hey, author here! I'm pretty overwhelmed that this made it to the top of HN without me even thinking of posting it here :) I made this game as a fun weekend project, inspired by another game called 1024 ( https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/1024!/id823499224 ) and a spinoff called 2048 ( http://saming.fr/p/2048/ ). I did mine to add animations to the latter, which was a bit hard to play without them. I discovered Threes…
Totally cool, and addictive. Not exactly news, but at another level, completely HN worthy

I just wasted 60 mins playing this game. And I think I'm hooked.
I hate you. ;)

The latest stats show no "game-win" events :P It might just be a matter of time though. EDIT: oops, there was a bug in the win/lose tracking so I probably missed out on a few wins. I fixed it now, so it should hopefully track it if someone else wins!
I just beat it! First try.. but I've been addicted to Threes for the past week or so. http://i.imgur.com/nf25AVZ.png

:P I guess it was almost perfect attempt, and the quickest of mine so far (just a single 16 apart of 2048)

That's not quite the minimum points, since occasionally (10% of the time) a 4 spawns, instead of a 2.
that's incorrect. just because a 4 gets spawned 10% of the time, doesn't mean that there couldn't be a game where 4 does not get spawned
4s reduce the total score. (E.g. I won with a score of about 20200 once.)
