Mahjong (also called Shanghai Solitaire or Taipei) is a single-player tile-matching game using 144 traditional Chinese mahjong tiles. The goal is to remove all tiles by matching identical free pairs. A tile is 'free' when nothing is stacked on top of it and at least one side (left or right) is unblocked.

The 144 tiles include 4 suits: Characters (万 1-9), Bamboo (条 1-9), Dots (筒 1-9), plus Honor tiles — Winds (東南西北), Dragons (中發白), Seasons (季), and Flowers (花). Seasons match with any Season, Flowers match with any Flower.
Sometimes the random layout creates deadlocks. Use the Shuffle button (3 free per game) to randomize remaining tile types and create new matches. If shuffles run out, just start a new game — each layout is different!
