This is the game that inspired 2048 but unfortunately never got nearly as popular.
Speaking of classic puzzle games, I want to play Hexic once again. Unfortunately, it’s not available for PC. Microsoft needs to bring it to the PC.
Popular mobile puzzle game classic Threes! is launching on PC for its 10th anniversary

It sucks that 2048 went viral and not Threes. Threes is available in Apple Arcade, which is pretty cool.

I think being stuck in Apple Arcade was it’s big problem, basically.

Being stuck for a while on iOS was its initial problem.
The Android port took quite a bit of time to happen which means 2048 had time to eclipse it for many people. And when it finally was on Android, It probably struggled more there for being a paid game when 2048 was free with ads.
It’s been available on both iOS and Android for years before Arcade was a thing.

threes just has so much charm that didn’t make it into the clones. I am so excited for this
