About Mahjong Solitaire
Mahjong Solitaire is a single-player tile-matching game built from the beautiful tiles of the traditional Chinese four-player game. The digital form dates to 1981, when Brodie Lockard created it on the PLATO system; it later spread worldwide as “Shanghai” and became one of the most popular casual computer games ever.
The tiles are stacked in a layered layout, and only “free” tiles, those with nothing on top and an open left or right side, can be matched. Remove all the tiles in pairs to win. This version includes a hint button that reveals a matchable pair, a shuffle for when no moves remain, a tiles-left counter and a completion timer. Play mahjong solitaire free in your browser, no download needed.
