Read full description

"Mini Mahjong Tile Connect" is simple and deep solitaire game that uses the mah-jong tile. Everyone can readily enjoy it. The rule is very easy. If two mah-jong tiles of the same design that queues up in the screen are taken by one pair, and all tiles are taken, it becomes clear. The selection of the tile does the tile with the finger by touching directly. The tile that can be taken has the condition like the under. - The tile that length and breadth adjoins can be taken. - The tile at the position that can be connected by the straight line in length and breadth can be taken. - The tile at the position where the straight line bends up to two times can be taken, too. It becomes "GameOver" when the tile that can be taken is lost. Of not becoming "GameOver", there is a tile that can surely be taken. (Please refer to the web page for a detailed rule) A puzzle that a lot of tiles and is wide comes out, too, when some puzzles are cleared. When clearing in addition... puzzle that changes a little.There is not a puzzle selection either. It enjoys the puzzle that comes out one after another endlessly by your tempo. Time-Attack mode Challenge to clear so faster!!
