Mahjong Solitaire is a tile-matching puzzle for one player. Remove all the tiles from the board by tapping two matching tiles that are both free. A tile is free when nothing lies on top of it and its left or right side is open. Clear every tile to win.

Transcript

  1. Mahjong Solitaire is a matching puzzle. Your goal is to remove all the tiles from the table, two at a time.
  2. Tap two tiles that show the same picture. When they match, both tiles leave the board.
  3. A tile is free when nothing lies on top of it, and its left or right side is open. Blocked tiles look darker.
  4. Flowers are special. Any flower matches any other flower, and any season matches any other season.
  5. Choose pairs that free the most tiles underneath. A little planning helps you avoid getting stuck.
  6. A hint shows a matching pair. In Pairtide the first hint on every board is free.
  7. If no free pair is left, shuffle to deal the tiles again into a board you can clear, or undo a move. Undo is always free.
  8. Every Pairtide board can be cleared, so a win is always possible. Small boards are quick, and large boards are a bigger challenge.
  9. In the Journey, earn up to three stars on each level. Clear the board, beat the time, and use no hints.
  10. Play Pairtide free on Google Play. It works offline, so you can relax anywhere. iOS is coming soon.
