Getting started with Mahjong Connect

Take a closer look while playing

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Notice the feedback after each input.

What the game asks you to do

Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

The playing sequence

  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.

Keyboard and screen controls

Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.

An example before you play

A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.

Check this before moving on

Three corners are invalid. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
