32

Power of 2: 2⁵ · Reached: Early-to-mid game

The value where your chain starts to take visible shape.

32 comes from merging two 16s, and from this point on your chain's shape starts to become clear.

Anchor the 32 in your corner and line up 16, 8, and 4 in descending order behind it, and merges will keep flowing smoothly.
