The essentials of playing Mahjong Solitaire
Try Mahjong Solitaire at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. 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.
Bring this focus to a round
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Keep the objective visible.
What you need to achieve
Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
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.
Getting comfortable with the controls
Tap two free matching tiles. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. A new-round button replaces the current round.
One way to understand the rules
Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.
Where a round can go wrong
Layer and side access matter as well as symbol matching. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
