The worst part about this is that neither the 1024 or 2048 developers do so much as acknowledge Threes as the original inspiration. It's really pathetic. Just

- simoncion 13y agoYou've let your vitriol get in the way of fact-checking. Found at the bottom of http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ : "Created by <a href=http://gabrielecirulli.com/>Gabriele http://gabrielecirulli.com/>Gabriele Cirulli.</a> Based on <a href=https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/1024!/id823499224>1024 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/1024!/id823499224>1024 by Veewo Studio</a> and conceptually similar to <a href=http://asherv.com/threes/>Threes http://asherv.com/threes/>Threes by Asher Vollmer.</a>" [Please ignore the idiot URLifier.]

- simoncion 13y agoThat's cool. Four days later, there's a shout-out to Threes: https://web.archive.org/web/20140314133031/http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ https://web.archive.org/web/20140314133031/http://gabrieleci... It looks like the guy credited Threes within four days of his game's release, and has yet to remove that credit. It's entirely possible that he was only aware of 1024 at the time that he made is game. Please get angry about something that matters. We need people to not waste their anger on unimportant things. :)
- andypants 13y ago2048 has always credited 1024, and 1024 has always credited Threes.
