I tried playing the addictive game 'SHOT2048' completely self-made by Mr. Yuji Naka, the creator of Sonic.

Yuji Naka, a game creator known as the creator of the Sonic series and Phantasy Star Online , has released the game 'SHOT2048 ', which says 'I made everything by myself for the first time in 37 years as a game creator.' It is a simple rule that if you shoot a dice with a number written on it, combine the dice with the same number, and finally create the number '2048', the game will be cleared, but when you actually play it, it is just the same There was a depth that wasn't just about combining the numbers.

I made a hyper casual game called [ # SHOT2048]. This is the first time that Yuji Naka, a game creator, has made everything by himself in 37 years. We would appreciate it if you could play and spread it. Thank you. https://t.co/vuWmoxO0sj pic.twitter.com/nzQeAxrJ9E

There are two types of SHOT2048, iOS version and Android version, but this time I will play the iOS version. Access the SHOT2048 page of the App Store and tap 'Get'.

Tap 'Open' when the installation is complete.

At the first startup, you will be prompted to agree to the terms of use and privacy policy, so read each and tap 'Continue'.

Then you will be asked if you want to allow the app to track the user's activity, so tap one. This time, I tapped 'Request not to track App'.

Tap the screen.

This is the SHOT2048 game screen. Swipe left or right on the numbered dice at the bottom of the screen and release your finger to eject the dice forward.

When the dice with the same number collide, the dice are combined and the number increases as shown below. The goal of SHOT2048 is very simple, just make a dice with '2048' written on it as the title says.

Although the dice are ejected accurately forward, the point is that if the dice collide with each other, the dice roll in unexpected directions, so it is not possible to manage all the dice perfectly. The breakdown of the dice on the field is displayed in the red frame at the top left of the screen.

The numbers of the dice that you will shoot next are written in small numbers as shown below, so it seems that the key to the game is which number to combine and when.

The game is over when the dice stop at the red frame in the front half of the field and a few seconds have passed. The stopped dice can be driven to the back by hitting a newly ejected dice.

So, you can check how you actually play SHOT2048 in the following movie.

The dice with the numbers do not roll as you envisioned, so the dice you want to combine may be prevented by another dice, or even if you have a large number dice, the two do not collide and the number is even larger. The biggest point is that the dice do not move as you want, such as not being able to make. It's a simple game that just adds numbers, but it's an addictive game that you can immerse yourself in more than you can imagine because luck influences the whereabouts of the game.
