Mahjong Solitaire: how a round works
Bring your attention to one round of Mahjong Solitaire. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Look at what changes after your first action. 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.
An idea for your next attempt
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Make the next step deliberately.
What the game asks you to do
Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Making your moves
- 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.
Your inputs
Tap two free matching tiles. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Contact us with the game and device if a control does not respond.
An example before you play
Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the game’s format in mind.
A mistake to avoid
Layer and side access matter as well as symbol matching. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
