Pokemon 2048 is a clone of a clone of a tweak of a clone. It was the theme that made me want to play this one though. The standard 2048 game is a sliding tile puzzle game where you combine like numbers together to form the square of that number. Match the numbers to make bigger numbers. Turn bigger numbers into bigger numbers until you get a tile that reads 2048.
The goal in Pokemon 2048 is exactly the same...except, you know, Pokemon. Match two Bulbasaurs to make a Ivysaur, two Ivysaurs make a Venusaur. The Bulbasaur evolution is followed by the Charmander evolution, which is followed by the Squirtle evolution, and finally the Pikachu evolution. Once you reach Raichu, you win.
My friend that's all hot for math is obsessed with the classic 2048, but turning 2s into 4s just isn't as fun to me as turning Charizards into Squirtles. Call me crazy.
It may not sound exciting but it's addictive for sure. I played it on the train, during any second of downtime at work, while eating... I am tired today because I stayed up later than I should, trying to see that elusive Raichu. It even screwed with my brain a little bit. While I was driving, I would see similar cars and match then in my mind, like that was going to make them get the hell out of my way. (Apparently my friend who likes 2048 also had this experience, so I'm not certifiable or anything.)
Today at lunch, I finally saw a Raichu.
And now I'm done.
Fairwell, Pokemon 2048. May we never cross paths again.

ReplyDeleteI took a look at the Google Play store, and I didn't see it. It very well may be iOS only. Here's the link to that version. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/2048-pokemon-version/id884755962?mt=8
