2048

     Recently I have became addicted to a new game. It is called twenty forty eight. If you don't like numbers, puzzles, or simple math, I do not recommend playing it. That is literally all the game is. However, I am addocted to these kinds of things and I have definitely met others who are just the same. Believe it or not, there are people more addicted than I am.

     All you have to do is slide tiles with like numbers together to make the number on the tile larger. You do this over and over again. Yet it never gets old. You learn these new skills and new levels to beat. The hole is infinitely dug.

     There are people who stop functioning socially just to get a little further along. Thank God I am not to that stage yet! However, I am guilty of procrastinating during class or before I get out of bed, just so I can play. It is amazing that something as simple as sliding your finger across a screen can become an addiction.


     Now I'm not talking the kind of addiction where it completely controls your life or your health is at risk, I'm talking about the kind where you get mad enough to throw your phone accross the room to hit it against the wall. Yes, we all have been there. You get so close and then at the very last minute you make a wrong move and you lose. It sucks and leaves you thinking about why someone would go something so cruel and make such a thing. Well, they make bookoo bucks from making it and "ruining" all your lives. The more you play, the more they get paid! So there is obviously some kind of strategy behind it. The only question is, will their strategy make it farther than Flappy Bird?

We will never know
