Xmas Mahjong Tiles 2023

This is the stacked side of the festive collection. Xmas Mahjong Tiles 2023 arranges its pieces in a pile and asks the classic question of each one: is the left or the right edge free. The rules of the solitaire board sets out the same mechanics on one page.

That rule decides everything about the order you work in. A piece with company on both sides is out of play no matter how plainly you can see it, so the pile is unpicked from its ends inwards, and a careless early pair can bury the copy you needed. GamesFine.com puts a timer over the top of it, which pushes you to keep moving once the board opens up, and provides hint and shuffle buttons for the point where the remaining pairs are all locked. Freeing the lower rows early matters in Valentines Day as well.

The layout is given a tall 1280 by 960 frame, and taps register as well as clicks. Panda Classic builds the layers into another arrangement.

1. Look over the pile for two pieces with the same festive picture.
2. Check each has a free edge on its left or on its right side.
3. Click both to take the pair off the layout.
4. Clear everything before the timer stops, calling on hints and shuffles if the pile locks.

• Work the ends of rows — only a free left or right edge makes a piece playable in Xmas Mahjong Tiles 2023, and rows shorten from their ends.
• Do not orphan a copy — taking the wrong two of four matching pieces can leave the last pair walled in on both sides.
• Shuffle as a last resort — it rearranges a locked pile, but the timer keeps running while you decide.
• Speed after the opening — once the top rows are gone the pairs come quickly, and that stretch is where the clock is beaten.
