Press kit

Ember 2048

A 2048 variant built around a single new rule: a prism tile that doubles whatever tile it slides into. Alongside it, a daily seeded board — one deterministic sequence per day for every player on Earth, one attempt, resetting at midnight UTC.

The short version

For a caption, a roundup entry, or a one-line mention.

Ember 2048 is the familiar sliding-tile puzzle with one extra piece: a prism that carries no number and doubles the tile it touches, turning a reactive game into one about saving a power move. It also ships a daily ritual — the same seeded board for every player, one attempt a day, streaks and a shared leaderboard. Free, in the browser, no install.
