Tile-Matching at its Best

Mahjong Solitaire is an ancient game with a history that dates back over 3,000 years. Even after all this time, it is easily one of the most popular pastimes for many people, except it is so much easier and more convenient to play on a computer than it is with physical tiles. By including a refreshing soundtrack, an easy-to-use interface, and breathtaking graphics, Super Mahjong Solitaire really lives up to its name. It truly is super, and is one of the best tile-matching experiences you will ever enjoy. Take a trip to the Orient without ever leaving your living room, match a few tiles, and maybe you'll even find some peace and enlightenment along the way.

Variety is the Spice of Life

For a more traditional take on mahjong solitaire, there is the traditional tile set. It is with this tile set that you will take in the most detailed graphics with the beautifully designed icons and lettering. For some, however, distinguishing between these tiles may be difficult. That's why this title also offers two other tile sets, appropriately named "simpler" and "simplest." The colors are more vivid with these collections, making it easier to separate one tile from another. Your choice of tile is largely a matter of personal preference.

As engaging and fun as this title is, it wouldn't be particularly interesting if you always played the same layout. Fear not, my fellow mahjong enthusiast, as there are no fewer than 20 unique layouts to enjoy here. Each presents a slightly different challenge, because you must work about them in a different way to ensure that you don't run out of moves! Strategy is important. You only have three re-shuffles per round, so use them wisely to maximize your score.

Historic and Relaxing

Richly painted artwork and an authentically Asian soundtrack provide the backdrop to this title, wisping you away on a historic journey through Ancient China. There are many songs to choose from, and you control which track you are listening to with the simple song selector near the bottom of the screen. For a little bit of variety, select "random" for a flowing medley that will relax and delight you. It is soothing, serene, and satisfying.

Classically Conditioned

The varied tile sets, complacent music, and vivid graphics make for a complete mahjong solitaire package. You can even keep track of your high scores, attacking your personal best each time you set out to match a few tiles, earn a few bonuses, and have a fantastically wonderful time.
