How to play Mahjong Solitaire

Try Mahjong Solitaire at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Look at what changes after your first action. Choose a comfortable screen position before beginning. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

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.

A focus for your next round

Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Notice the feedback after each input.

The purpose of your moves

Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Start with a deliberate move.

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.

Your inputs

Tap two free matching tiles. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.

Work through an example

Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Verify the rule before continuing.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Layer and side access matter as well as symbol matching. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. 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.
