How Number Merge works
Number Merge is a puzzle game with a clear objective: Slide and combine equal numbered tiles.
New tiles reduce empty space, and the board becomes unstable when large values are scattered across several corners.
Controls
Use arrow keys to combine equal numbers.
Detected input types for this implementation: keyboard, click/tap. On phones and tablets, matching touch controls appear directly below the game.

Strategy notes for Number Merge
- Keep your largest values toward one corner so the board develops a predictable structure.
- Avoid filling every cell with small isolated numbers; leave room for new tiles to combine.
