Learn the rules of Mahjong Solitaire
Choose a round of Mahjong Solitaire and settle into its rules. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. 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.
Build familiarity through play
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Take a moment to understand the current position.
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.
Choosing and moving on screen
Tap two free matching tiles. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
An example to follow
Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
Avoid this misunderstanding
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.
