Mahjong Solitaire: what to know before playing
Make Mahjong Solitaire your next activity in the game library. 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. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
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 with a purpose
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Keep the objective visible.
The objective of a round
Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.
Follow these playing steps
- 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.
How your actions work
Tap two free matching tiles. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
Work through an example
Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Verify the rule before continuing.
A useful caution
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.
