Read full descriptionHide full description
A logic puzzle with a beat under it. Tap an arrow, it flies away if there is no another arrow in a way. Clear the grid. That's the puzzle. The twist: tap on the beat and you earn ArrowCoins. The grid is still solvable any way you like, but rhythm gets paid. WHAT YOU PLAY • 2000 hand-tuned levels, paced from "the rules teach themselves" to "this is going to take a while" • Three tempo beds, Calm 60 BPM, Steady 90 BPM, Rush 120 BPM. Pick the speed that fits your mood • An on-screen beat indicator under the board, playable with the sound off, no rhythm bonus lost • Daily Puzzle, one new grid per day, identical worldwide • Zen, endless runs, no hearts, no hints, no rhythm. A chill alternative when you want to flow ARROWCOINS Earn coins by tapping on the beat, chaining hits, clearing levels without losing hearts, and finishing the day's Daily. Spend coins on: • Extra hints when the per-level free budget runs out • A "continue" after a failed level instead of restarting • Saving a Zen run before you close the app (or own the Full Pass and save for free) WHAT'S FREE, WHAT'S PAID Levels 1–500 are free forever. No subscriptions, ever. Optional one-time purchases: • Unlock levels 501 and every future level • Remove the Zen-mode banner ad (Regular and Daily are always ad-free) • ArrowCoin packs when you don't want to grind • Full Pass, both unlocks plus a starter coin grant, priced as the obvious value choice PRIVACY Anonymous. No account, no email, no tracking. The Ads banner in Zen runs in non-personalised mode and never shows up outside Zen. Tap an arrow. Catch the beat. Clear the grid.

How to play Clear the board by matching pairs of identical tiles. A tile can be played only when nothing is stacked on top of it and one of its sides is open — tap two matching free tiles to remove them both. Completely free — no ads, no accounts, nothing locked behind a purchase. There's an optional tip jar if you'd like to support development. 31 classic layouts Start with Turtle and unlock a new shape each time you clear a board — Snowflake, Pyramid, Butterfly, Dragon, Fortress, Scorpion and 25 more, all the way up to White Dragon. Every layout is a real, named classic mahjong solitaire board. 144 tiles, every time Every game deals all 144 tiles of a classic mahjong set. Circles, bamboo and characters, the four winds and three dragons, plus the flower and season bonus tiles. Flowers and seasons Any flower matches any other flower, and any season matches any season — the only tiles that don't need an exact twin. Always winnable Every deal is generated with a guaranteed solution, so a perfect line of play always exists. You will never be dealt a board you couldn't have cleared. Hints and undo Stuck? Tap Hint to highlight a playable pair, and Undo to rewind your moves as far as you like. Choose your table Play on a traditional green felt table, or switch to a darker green in Settings. Clean, relaxing design Traditional tiles, no internet required. Just you and the tiles.
