The extremely popular Mahjong Solitaire game is back! The latest version of Mahjong Solitaire is striving to become the best free versions of the game you will find online. Made to fill in the gaps where other games fall short we are sure you will enjoy hours of game play. Challenge yourself by completing all the solar system level sets. Mahjong Solitaire (also commonly known as Shanghai Solitaire) is very different from the normal 4 player game. The thing in common between the two games is that they are played with the same tiles. In Mahjong Solitaire you try and remove all the tiles from the playing area by matching up tiles that are free.

Creating new puzzles in Mahjong is quite easy. You can simply start by clicking on the board and it will add tiles. There are three modes you can use in the editor.

• Add: In this mode you simply click on the board, or on top of other tiles on the board and a new tile is added.
• Delete: In this mode you delete existing tiles by clicking on them.
• Select: In this mode you simply select a tile by clicking on it. A selected tile will be yellow. See below on what that's useful for.

Moving tiles with the selected tile

By using the arrow keys on your keyboard you can move the selected (yellow) tile up, down, left or right. If you move it into another tile it will push that tile as well. This is an easy way to manipulate many tiles at once.

Moving the entire puzzle

Sometimes you find out too late that you've started your puzzle in the wrong place, and it needs to be in a slightly different place. In that case use the arrow buttons to move the puzzle. They will be disabled if you have tiles at the very edges of the board and can't move further in that direction.

Saving your puzzle

Once you've placed all 144 tiles on the board you simply enter a name in the Puzzle text box and click the Save puzzle button. You cannot use the names of any of the default puzzles, and the name can only be 10 letters. Once you save the puzzle a game will start with your new puzzle, and from now on it will appear with the built-in puzzles in the list of puzzles at the start of a game.

Loading or deleting your puzzles

If you want to change a puzzle you saved previously, click the Load puzzle button. You will see a list of your puzzles and can click the little Load button next to the puzzle you want to change. If you want to delete a puzzle you've made, simply click the little Delete button next to the puzzle name.

The objective of Mahjong Solitaire game is to remove all tiles from the board. Tiles can be removed only in pairs, as long as both tiles belong to the same class. Moreover, only available tiles can be removed. If a given tile is covered by another tile or blocked both from left and right, it is unavailable and cannot be removed. In other words, available tiles are those which can slide left or right without moving other tiles in the meantime.

There are 36 classes of tiles, containing four tiles each, which adds up to the total of 144 tiles. Most classes contain four identical tiles. The only exceptions are the class of plants and the class of seasons. Both those classes can contain four different tiles, however in some tile sets tiles even in those classes are identical.

Three pieces of advice for beginners: 1) pay attention to the board and try to unlock those tiles that you will need. 2) If you notice two tiles belonging to the same class on top of each other, prioritize removing the top tile of this pair – if you remove the remaining two tiles from this class first, you will get stuck and the game will be lost. 3) Try to maximize the number of available tiles. If you have a choice of removing a tile standing free or a tile blocking others, you should choose the latter.

Mahjong Solitaire is a video game known also under the name of Shanghai or simply Mahjong. The tiles used in the game come from an ancient Chinese game with the same name (Mahjong) played by four players. The single-player version of Mahjong can be played both on a computer and with the real tiles, however the former way of playing is much more popular.

The first computer version of the game was created in 1981. However, the popularity of Mahjong Solitaire comes from a version developed by Activision studio in 1986 under the name Shanghai. The game is also available in the Windows 7 system under the name Mahjong Titans.

This free online Mahjong game was created for users who do not have the game pre-installed on their computers. :-)

In the traditional difficulty level, tiles are always dealt randomly. As a result, some deals can never be won. For example, if four tiles of the same class lay on top of each other, they block each other and the deal cannot be solved.
