How to play — Hex rules

Classic 2048 on a honeycomb. 19 cells (radius 2). Every slide pushes all tiles in one of 6 hex directions.

Merge: Same numbers collide → double. Score = sum of merged values.
6 lines: E/W share Z, NE/SW share Y, NW/SE share X (cube coords).
Full board? No empty + no adjacent equals in any direction = game over.
Goal: make 2048 tile. Keep going after!

Controls

E / → East • W / ← West
Q NW • W NE
Z SW • X SE
Drag/swipe board anywhere — angle auto-snaps to 60° sectors.

Cube coordinates

We use cube coords (x,y,z) where x+y+z=0. Radius 2 = max(|x|,|y|,|z|)≤2. Sliding groups by invariant axis:
E/W → z const | NE/SW → y const | NW/SE → x const
Lines sorted, then 2048 compress toward edge.

Touch: touch-action:none on canvas for clean swipe. Keyboard = 6 directions + R.
