THE MAHJONG TABLE

American Mahjong Solitaire

A familiar set of tiles. A little space to think.

Play free Read the rules

One player, one thoughtful pair at a time.

Remove matching pairs of available tiles until the board is empty. An available tile has no tile overlapping it from above and at least one open side: left or right.

This is a single-player tile-matching puzzle using American-style tile identities. It does not teach the full multiplayer American Mah Jongg game: there is no Charleston, hand card, calling, or competitive scoring here.

152 on the board. 166 in the artwork catalog.

Each current layout uses 152 active tiles. The 166-piece artwork reference includes extras and spares; it is not a 166-tile deal.
