Computational bounds for the 2048 game
Abstract
2048 is a single player video game, played by millions mostly on mobile devices. We prove rigorously for the first time that there is an algorithm with winning probability at least 0.99969, and that there is a strategy for achieving the 256 tile guaranteed (with probability 1).
