Panoramica
Mahjong Solitaire (Shanghai) is a single-player matching game using Mahjong tiles. Unlike the real four-player Mahjong, this is a puzzle game where you clear tiles by matching pairs. Tiles must be 'free' to be selected.
Storia

Strategia
Prioritize tiles with the most duplicates in play - removing one frees options.
Don't just take the first match
Consider what tiles your move exposes.
Avoid uncovering tiles you can't immediately match - they block the board.
Keep the board balanced between left and right sides.
Look for triplets of the same tile visible
Matching two leaves the third blocked.
Use hints sparingly if available
Think before clicking.
Some layouts are unsolvable due to random shuffling - don't feel bad about restarting.
