Tips and tricks
- Use undo or restart freely. Experimenting is how you learn the mechanics; there is no penalty for trying an idea.
- Play with sound on if the game has it; audio cues often confirm a correct move before the animation finishes.
- Look for forced moves — places where only one option is legal. Solving those first shrinks the problem.
- If you are stuck for more than a couple of minutes, step away and come back. Puzzle solutions often arrive when you stop forcing them.
- Because this is a Mahjong game, clear the tall stacks first; buried tiles are what block you late.
