Solitaire Mahjong Candy
SOFTGAMES keeps the solitaire pile and repaints every face as a sweet, with time feeding the score and new puzzles behind each clear.
Solitaire Mahjong Candy keeps the solitaire pile intact and repaints every face as a sweet. The test is unchanged — two identical tiles, each unblocked from above and open on at least one side — but the candy art makes the reading harder, because sweets differ by colour and wrapper where suit marks differ by symbol.
SOFTGAMES ties the score to time, so how fast a board falls matters as much as whether it falls at all. That scoring is also what makes the hint expensive: it solves the moment in front of you and costs the seconds that would otherwise have paid for a better total. Mahjong Christmas keeps the pace of this one.
New puzzles keep arriving as you clear the ones in front of you, which gives the 2023 build a long tail. The layouts vary rather than repeat, and the ones that catch people out are the deep piles where a sweet is plainly visible but pinned on both sides. The Chain board stands next to this one in the same list.
The 800 by 600 stage benefits from full screen for exactly the reason the theme creates: enlarged, two similar wrappers stop reading as the same tile. Touch input is supported, and the pile scales to a phone without losing its layers. The Classic board piles the tiles into a different silhouette.
Controls
Mouse on desktop, or tap a sweet and then its match on a touchscreen.
How to Play
- Find two identical sweets on the pile.
- Check that neither is covered from above and that each has at least one free side.
- Select the pair to clear it and expose the layer underneath.
- Empty the board quickly, since the time you take feeds directly into the score.
- Use the hint or the shuffle when the pile offers nothing legal.
Tips & Tricks
- Check the wrapper, not the colour — the candy faces repeat shades, and the pattern is what separates two sweets.
- Speed is score — a board cleared briskly is worth more than the same board cleared safely.
- Free the pinned sweets first — a visible tile blocked on both sides is what usually strands a deep pile.
- Treat the hint as a cost — the seconds it takes are the same seconds your score is built from.
- Play in full screen — the sweets are small and the layers overlap, which is where misreads come from.
Frequently Asked Questions

Time feeds into it, so clearing a board quickly is worth more points than clearing it at leisure.
How many puzzles does Solitaire Mahjong Candy have?
More arrive the further you get, so the layouts keep varying rather than cycling through a short set.
Does Solitaire Mahjong Candy have full screen?
Yes, and the candy art rewards it: two similar wrappers are much easier to tell apart on an enlarged pile.

It can. The 2023 build takes touch input and the layered pile stays readable on a smaller screen.
