Your guide to Mahjong Solitaire
Read the aim of Mahjong Solitaire, then make your first move. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Look at what changes after your first action.
Match number-marked tiles in a compact layered layout. The starting arrangement has a complete removal route, but your choices can still block later pairs.
Practice beyond the first move
When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.
Understand the aim
Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
The order of play
- Choose a tile with no covering tile and a free left or right side.
- Choose a matching free tile.
- Uncover lower layers.
- Use hints or undo.
Controls
Tap two free matching tiles. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. A new-round button replaces the current round.
A useful example
Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.
Pay attention to this rule
Layer and side access matter as well as symbol matching. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
