How to play Mahjong Connect

Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Mahjong Connect. Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

6×8 grid and two-turn path finding.

Read before acting

Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your goal

Remove matching tiles connected by a path of at most two turns. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Step by step

  1. Select equal tiles.
  2. The route must cross only empty cells.
  3. An outside-border path is allowed.
  4. Open connections by removing pairs.

Controls

Tap pairs; use Hint and Undo. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.

A useful example

A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the controls nearby.

Watch out for this

Three corners are invalid. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
