    But the point is these aren't parts of 2048, they're just things you're putting on it.

I could make any game harder by drinking heavily before playing it but that external factor making the game more difficult hasn't really improved it as a game. Worth saying, I'm not wild about either game. For me they're simply not rewarding and I found myself resenting rather than enjoying the time I spent on them.
