agree! how to play??? I found I can click and join knights by knight move with the same subscripts. but what is the king doing? there are no directions and its not obvious!

The king has just taken my largest piece after no moves were left. I guess when you reach 2048, you can take the king and win.

Apparently he is worth 1024 so you can take him when you have a 1024 piece, and win. I didn't realise this (or that he takes pieces when cornered - I avoided that, assuming a stalemate would mean losing) so played it right through to a regular 2048 which took a verrry long while.
