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.
