How to Play Simple Mahjong
From the moment you open Simple Mahjong, you are matching tiles and clearing the board — no setup screens between you and that satisfying click of a matched pair. It is built for anyone who wants a relaxing but genuinely engaging puzzle, whether you have five minutes or a full afternoon.
- Open the app and land directly on the board — no sign-up required
- Choose a layout from 50+ unlockable levels across multiple categories
- Scan the board for two identical exposed tiles and select them to remove the pair
- Work your way inward, uncovering tiles buried beneath the stack
- Return daily to tackle a fresh puzzle with the built-in daily challenge
Controls
Tap or click a tile to select it, then tap or click its matching exposed partner to remove the pair. Only tiles with at least one free side can be selected.
Scoring
Progress is measured by how cleanly you clear the board — the goal is to remove every tile before no legal moves remain.
When does a round end?
A round ends when you have cleared all tiles from the board, or when no matching exposed pairs are left to remove.
