"2048, the most addictive game since Tetris, was recently released. Its origin has been traced back as far as Threes!, which inspired 1024, which inspired 2048. Finally, an improved version, with animations, was written by Gabriele Cirulli, 19 year old from Italy.

The game has enthralled many, and led directly to the waste of countless potentially productive hours. A variety of permutations have since surfaced: 2048 in 3D, 2048 in 4D, and 9007199254740992.

Some ask why it's so addictive. I say, it attacks our pleasure centers in ways that Wesley Crusher already warned us about."

    Welcome visitor from the past!

    Fasten your seatbelt and enjoy content that you are either too much stupid or too much smart to appreciate; in case of sickness feel free to puke from the window, other passengers will not notice the difference.

    Please patiently wait for their extinction and then take control of the ship.

    [I think I am too much stupid, since I don't like it at all]
