Visual planning

Mahjong

Remove the tiles in matching pairs. A tile is open when nothing lies on it and its left or right side is free. Plan ahead: the tile you need may be hidden under another.

Free in the browser, no account needed.

  1. Pick two open tiles with the same face to remove them.
  2. A tile is open when no tile covers it, even partly, and its left or its right side is free.
  3. Any flower matches any flower, and any season matches any season.
  4. Shuffle re-deals the remaining tiles into a winnable arrangement.
  5. Clear every tile to win.

  1. Open tiles. A tile is open when nothing covers it and its left or right side is free. Blocked tiles look dimmer.
  2. Pairs. Pick two open tiles with the same face. Flowers pair with flowers, seasons with seasons.

  • Click or tap two matching open tiles
  • Arrow keys move between open tiles, Enter selects, Esc clears the selection
  • Zoom and drag to pan on small screens
  • Z to undo, Y to redo, H for a hint

Each layout offers the tiers it can really deliver: small layouts are easy, the Turtle and Expert layouts go up to expert. Every board is built so it can be cleared, and difficulty is measured by how often careless play gets stuck.
