The 2048 roguelike. Slide tiles, chain merges, and stack black-market mods on a 4×4 grid until one move breaks the game and the numbers stop making sense. Play solo or with friends online with dedicated matchmaking and ranked mode.
Numbers Go Up is a Roguelike Deckbuilder played on the 2048 grid. Slide, merge, score - then rebuild the rules between rounds and try to keep up with the numbers going up!
In Numbers Go Up, you have complete freedom to build around whichever system suits your playstyle. It gives you endless ways to build the perfect scoring engine, but always keeps you on your toes by dynamically tracking how you play and adapting itself to your build intelligently.
Between gates you cash out and shop the black-market bazaar. Mods are illegal programs to run inside your terminal. They rewrite how scoring works. Enhanced tiles change how the pieces themselves behave: they charge, magnetize, go volatile, turn to gold. Hacks give you direct control over the terminal's systems. You want to always spawn ALL 1024s? you can do that.
Play alone or Multiplayer against a rival with dedicated matchmaking & Ranked Mode
Play the same random state seed in Multiplayer - where your knowledge of game systems, strategy & skills are tested. Same Seed means both players see the same exact spawns, mods, items in the packs and other things in the shop. All that differs is your decisions and your skills. The higher score wins. Queue casual, climb the ranked ladder, or open a private room and challenge a friend.
