Mahjong Solitaire: what to know before playing

Take a moment with Mahjong Solitaire before moving to another game. 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.

One thing to notice as you play

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Make the next step deliberately.

The purpose of your moves

Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Keep the controls in easy reach.

Step by step

  1. Choose a tile with no covering tile and a free left or right side.
  2. Choose a matching free tile.
  3. Uncover lower layers.
  4. Use hints or undo.

How your actions work

Tap two free matching tiles. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

See the idea in action

Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.

One detail worth checking

Layer and side access matter as well as symbol matching. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. 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.
