Sh1ftify

Slide and merge tiles across 3×3 to 6×6 boards in 10 game modes. Train your brain with daily quests, XP progression, a Gizmo companion, seasonal events, and deep-link challenges.

🎯

10 Game Modes

Classic, Timed, Move-Limited, Daily Challenge, Survival, Rush, Sudden Death, Reverse, Duel, and Gizmo mode. Each mode changes the rules and keeps the game fresh.

📐

Multiple Board Sizes

Play on 3×3, 4×4, 5×5, and 6×6 grids. Larger boards unlock through level progression, each with its own Play Games leaderboard.

📅

Daily Quests

Three quests are generated deterministically each day — same for all players. Reach a tile value, achieve a combo, play N games, and more. Complete quests for XP and coins.

📈

XP & Level Progression

Earn XP from scores (1 XP per 10 points) with a quadratic level curve. Level up to unlock board sizes, themes, Gizmo emotion packs, and a custom theme editor.

🤖

Gizmo Companion

An animated character that reacts to your game events with 13 emotions — from curious to frustrated. Gizmo also appears in a dedicated mini-game and celebration overlays.

🎃

Seasonal Events

Date-driven events that override the theme, add visual effects, and change Gizmo's appearance. Halloween, Christmas, New Year, Valentine's, and Summer.

🎨

Nine Themes

Dark, Light, Neon, Pastel, Halloween, Christmas, Valentines, Summer, and Dynamic (Material You on Android 12+). Unlock a custom theme editor at level 10.

🔗

Deep Links & Replays

Challenge friends via deep links, or share and watch replays encoded as compact base64 strings. Opening a link prompts the player to accept or watch.

☁️

Cloud Sync

Game state and stats sync to the cloud for cross-device play. Includes game history backup/restore and account upgrade for linking a permanent credential.

Ten ways to play

Each mode changes the rules. Find your favorite or master them all.

🎮

Classic

Standard play — no restrictions. Merge tiles and chase the highest score.

⏱️

Timed

Beat the clock with a 3-minute timer. Every second counts.

🔢

Move-Limited

Game over after 100 moves. Make every move count.

🌟

Daily Challenge

Deterministic seed — same board for all players each day. Compete on equal terms.

🔥

Survival

Tiles spawn faster over time. Keep the board clear as long as you can.

Rush

60-second sprint. Board starts with 6 tiles. Fast and intense.

❄️

Sudden Death

Tiles freeze after 15 moves. Navigate around them to keep merging.

🔄

Reverse

Tiles spawn high. Merge to split down to 2. Think backwards.

⚔️

Duel

Two players alternate turns. First to 2048 wins.

🤖

Gizmo

Power-ups, obstacles, wildcards, and special tiles appear. The most unpredictable mode.

Progress that feels rewarding

Earn XP, level up, collect coins, and unlock new content as you play.

XP

Earn XP from Scores

1 XP per 10 points scored. Level curve is quadratic (100 × level²), so each level takes more effort than the last.

Coins

Secondary Currency

Coins are earned from daily quests and seasonal events. Spend them on cosmetics and special content.

Unlocks

Gated Content

Board sizes, themes, Gizmo emotion packs, and the custom theme editor are unlocked at specific levels.

Meet Gizmo

Your animated companion reacts to every game event with 13 different emotions and multiple image variants for variety.

Gizmo watches your every move and reacts accordingly. Merge a high tile? Gizmo gets proud. Board filling up? Gizmo looks scared. Gizmo also appears in a dedicated mini-game and celebration overlays, making the experience feel alive and personal.

Multiple image variants per emotion provide variety — you won't see the same reaction twice in a row. Gizmo's appearance also changes during seasonal events.
