Mahjongg
Mahjongg is a classic puzzle game in which the objective is to remove all the tiles from the table by matching pairs of identical tiles. The game is played on a virtual board with multiple layers of tiles arranged in different patterns. Some are stacked, some are on their own, and some are hidden. Each game is different, thanks to the endless tile layouts from the get-go.
How to Play Mahjongg (Online)
Your objective is to clear the virtual board of all tiles by matching up pairs. When you find two tiles that have the same pattern, you click on one and click on the matching one, causing them to disappear from the board.
There are four tiles for each character, with the exception of flows and seasons, which are one-of-a-kind tiles. Tiles with an exact match must be matched with the same patterned tile. Flowers can be matched with any flower. Seasons can be matched with any season.
Each tile has a specific character or symbol, and you must select two free tiles with the same character to remove them from the board. It gets tricky when tiles are "locked." A tile is considered "locked" when it has a tile on both sides of it. A tile is considered "free" when it has no tiles on top of it and at least one of its sides is not blocked by another tile.
Choose Your Mahjongg Level
Dream - Very easy
Towers - Easy
Cloud - Normal
Red Dragon - Hard
Ninja - Unbeatable
Note: If you've never played before, you may find Level 1 challenging. I played Level 1—the Very Easy level—and wasn't able to finish on my first attempt! Don't be discouraged. It gets easier.
The game ends when all tiles have been removed from the board or when no more possible moves are left.
Tip
Focus on the free tiles more than the matches. You can't match locked tiles, so starting to look for pairs straight away is a time-waster.
Good luck, and enjoy the challenge!
