When friends ask me for a mobile game recommendation, I’ve been answering with a number: Threes! You’ve probably heard of 2048; well, this is the original that sparked the copycat and all the other clones.

(Note: I’m not going to type that exclamation mark any more. Officially, the game is titled Threes! but let’s just go with Threes the rest of the way. Quieter.)
