Play Mahjong Solitaire with the rules at hand

Mahjong Solitaire gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Use the example below to understand a decision. 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.

Try a more deliberate round

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your objective

Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.

Follow these playing steps

  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.

Input guidance

Tap two free matching tiles. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

Learn from a sample situation

Equal symbols cannot pair while one is covered. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Choose a deliberate next step.

One detail worth checking

Layer and side access matter as well as symbol matching. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
