QUICK GUIDEHow to play Mahjong SolitaireRules, free tiles and matching exceptions
Dots, Bamboo, Characters, Winds and Dragons must match the same face.
Any Flower can match another Flower, and any Season can match another Season.
When several pairs are available, prefer moves that uncover upper layers and keep multiple matches open.
Shuffle rebuilds the remaining tiles into a solvable arrangement and marks the run Assisted.
The same date always produces the same layout and deal on this version, so a Daily can be replayed exactly.
Classic Mahjong Solitaire, without the clutter
This is the single-player tile-matching puzzle also called Mahjongg Solitaire or Shanghai Solitaire, not four-player traditional Mahjong. The main game stays above the fold; layout choice, settings, stats and strategy help open only when you ask for them.
