About
2048 is a single-player sliding tile puzzle game written by Gabriele Cirulli and released in 2014, where the player slides numbered tiles on a grid to combine them into a tile numbered 2048. 2048-Qt is a cross-platform clone of 2048 built with the Qt framework, tested on Windows and Linux (the author states it should also run on macOS, Android, and iOS). It supports several languages, including English, French, German, Polish, Russian, and Simplified Chinese.
How it differs from the original
Beyond the classic numbered tiles, it ships with alternate tile-label variants — 'Degree', 'Military Rank', and 'PRC' — not present in the original game. The README lists AI play and user-defined label sets as planned but not yet implemented.
Getting started
Prebuilt binaries are available from the project's GitHub releases: the Windows build bundles all required Qt libraries so it runs out of the box, while Linux needs Qt 5.2.1 or newer installed separately. It's also packaged for Arch Linux (AUR), Debian, Ubuntu, and a Gentoo overlay, installable through each distribution's package manager.
