Mahjong Connect is a tile-matching puzzle where you clear the board by removing pairs of identical tiles. It looks similar to Mahjong Solitaire, but pairs are matched by different rules: two tiles can be removed only if there is a clear line between them. This line must not pass through other tiles and can have no more than two turns. Because of this, a matching pair is not always playable just because both tiles are visible.

Empty spaces matter in Mahjong Connect. When you remove a pair, the spaces left behind can create new routes between other tiles. A pair that was blocked a moment ago may become available after one or two moves. To clear the board, you need to keep choosing matches that open the layout instead of only taking the first pair you see.

The Four Corners layout is split into four separate blocks with open space between them. This makes the gaps in the middle of the board important, because they can become useful routes between different parts of the layout. Check each block on its own, then look across the open center for pairs that can connect from one corner to another.
