Hey, 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…

Extremely addictive and awesome patterns! Well done!

Just be glad you are already immune to Tetris.

Best strategy (for me) seems to be to play it like tetris. Never ever use the up key and create a row at the bottom where everything collapses into it. This sort of clicked towards, oooh I don't know about 1:30am this morning.

Empirically, this got me much further than the corner (stair-stepped) approach.

Or maybe go buy Threes which this is a descendant of? http://asherv.com/threes/ Nice clone but it's definitely a clone and so should be treated as such.

iDevices only. Bleh.

Nope - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vo.threes.excl...
