An introduction to playing Mahjong Connect

A small practice goal

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.

The challenge in front of you

Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

How a round unfolds

  1. Select equal tiles.
  2. The route must cross only empty cells.
  3. An outside-border path is allowed.
  4. Open connections by removing pairs.

Controls

Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.

Put the rules into context

A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.

Keep this in mind

Three corners are invalid. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
