Learn your way around Mahjong Solitaire
Start Mahjong Solitaire by looking at the playing area and its controls. Remove all forty layered tiles in matching pairs. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Use the opening round to become familiar with the layout. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Match number-marked tiles in a compact layered layout. The starting arrangement has a complete removal route, but your choices can still block later pairs.
Practice beyond the first move
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Use the example to check your reasoning.
