Threes with a score of 99: a 24 tile in orange among 3s and 1s, the top tile counter reading 24

THREES

slide · merge · survive

Slide every tile at once. 1 and 2 make 3, and from there only matching tiles merge. New tiles come in from the edge you slid away from, and your score is the sum of every merge.

Its rules are tuned for short games: most new tiles are 1s, so a run lasts a few dozen moves.
