About
Mahjong Garden is a free Mahjong solitaire game where you clear a stacked board of 144 tiles by matching pairs. A tile is available when nothing covers it and its left or right side is open. Flowers can pair with other flowers, and seasons can pair with other seasons.
Choose from six layouts: Turtle, Pyramid, Fortress, Bridge, Butterfly and Caravan. You can use hints, undo as often as you need and shuffle up to three times per game. Your browser keeps your results, streaks and best time for each layout on this device.
You can also play Mahjong Tray, a twist on the game, on PlayKervan.
How to play
- Choose one of the six layouts.
- Find a tile with nothing on top and an open left or right side.
- Select it, then select an identical free tile to remove the pair.
- Match any two flowers together or any two seasons together.
- Use Hint to highlight an available pair, or undo to revisit a move.
- If you run out of moves, choose shuffle or undo. You have three shuffles per game.
- Remove all 144 tiles to win.
Tips
- Check what a pair will uncover before removing it.
- Look for matches that open the sides of other tiles.
- When several identical tiles are free, consider which pairing exposes more tiles.
- Use a hint when you cannot spot an available pair.
- Try undoing an earlier choice before using one of your three shuffles.

Can the game give me an unsolvable deal?
