Sweet Triple Mahjong

The catch in Sweet Triple Mahjong is the number three. Where a standard tile board pairs two identical faces, this one collects them in threes, and a tile counts as available only when its left or right side is clear. Directly alongside it sits Number.

That single rule change rewrites the arithmetic of a layout. Two matching sweets are not a move, they are half of one, so the board is read as sets of three, and a stranded third tile can lock a whole row of candy for the rest of the level. Lof Games gives each stage a new arrangement, which is where the observation the game asks for actually goes. The Candy layout keeps company with this board in the catalogue.

The candy dressing keeps the tone light while the counting stays strict: cakes, sweets and iced shapes in place of the old suits, drawn at 1280 by 720 so the sugar detail survives on a desktop screen. The rules take a minute; the levels take longer, and that is the trade the game is built on. The Space Pet Link board shares this board’s place in the catalogue.

1. Scan the sweet layout for three tiles carrying the same design.
2. Check each one is free on its left or right edge; a tile boxed in on both sides cannot be collected yet.
3. Click the three in turn to collect the set and take it off the board.
4. Empty the layout to close the stage, then read the new arrangement that follows.

• Count in threes — a pair of matching cakes is worth nothing in Sweet Triple until the third one is reachable.
• Open the row ends — tiles at the edge of a run free their neighbours, so working inward keeps sets collectable.
• Track the buried third — before spending two of a kind, find out where the last one is sitting.
• Watch the sugar palette — several candy faces share the same colours, and the icing pattern is what tells them apart.
