purpose of this puzzle game is to reach the number, 2048. When you first open the app, you will think it is easy, but be aware this game is highly addictive and very hard.

“This game is really awesome, I have played it nonstop and I’m gonna keep going at it until I beat the game,” said Kristy Russel, 11.

To play the game the user swipes to move tiles. When the two tiles with the same number touch they merge into one, and double.

“It’s hard until you figure your strategy then it’s easy,” said Michael Heyn, 10.

The best way to approach the game is to swipe down, then left, then down, then left, and repeat. Doing this will get the biggest number in the bottom left corner and it will be really easy doubling that.

“4096 is much harder to get through then 2048.  It’s really fun to be out your friends,” said Alex Weisser, 12.

This year SHS Fashion for the Cure raised $59,000 dollars for The Dragonfly Foundation. All this money is in support of families whose kids are battling cancer. FFTC is an annual event that brings together our entire Sycamore community in appreciating the artistry and skill of its students, all while supporting a good cause. It is one of a kind and finds its way into peoples lives year after year. A week after the 2020 fashion show COVID-19 took hold and FFTC was unfortunately not able to be held in 2021. However, this setback only further motivated the committee, designers, volunteers, and others this year to work hard to come out with a bang for the 2022 show. So, that is exactly what happened. Featured are some notable designers and their collections from the show on February 18, 2022.
