Balls 2048 is a merge game that features numbered balls and a connect-style match component instead of blocks or tiles and drop play. The game releases multiple balls of different colors and sizes onto a long, white table. The player attempts to create a single ball with the highest possible score by merging pairs of matching balls. They use a blue-white line to connect the balls for each match. When they finish with a single ball, they receive up to three stars as a reward.
