How to Play Thanksgiving Mahjong

Thanksgiving Mahjong Solitaire has all the elements of classic online Mahjong Solitaire but includes unique fall-themed tiles. The objective is to clear all the tiles from the board by matching pairs of identical tiles without running out of matches or time.

You can only match tiles that are not blocked by other tiles. In other words, a tile must be free on at least one of its long sides (left or right) to be selected. The pairs of tiles can be identical in both the tile type and the tile pattern.

Understanding the value of each tile

In Mahjong Thanksgiving Solitaire, the various suits of tiles are assigned different point values. Thanksgiving Mahjong includes seasonally-themed Wan (2 points), Circle (4 points), and Bamboo (6 points) tiles. Like classic Mahjong Solitaire, the 'special' suits, Wind, Dragon, Flower, and Season, are more valuable as they are harder to find.

What makes free Thanksgiving Mahjong games so fun is their festive assortment of savory and sweet tiles that will help boost your score, including:

Wind tiles (8 points):

• Cranberries

• Corn

• Fall Foliage

• Pumpkins

Dragon tiles (10 points):

• Candles

• Cornucopia

• Autumnal wreath

Flower tiles (12 points):

• Mashed potatoes

• Roast Turkey

• Cranberry sauce

• Green bean casserole

Season tiles (14 points):

• Pumpkin pie

• Buttered rolls

• Baked Ham

• Gravy Boat

Now that you understand the value of each suit of tiles, here's how to make a match:

1. Click or tap on a tile to select it.
2. Click or tap on another tile that is identical but not obstructed. The selected tiles will disappear from the board if they form a valid pair.
3. Continue selecting and matching pairs of tiles until no more valid matches are available.

With some practice and strategy, you'll become a Mahjong Master in no time. In the meantime, try these tips to help you improve your game:

Focus on unblocking tiles:

• Start with the top layer and work your way down, clearing as many tiles as possible.

• Creating open pathways is essential to success – prioritize removing tiles blocking multiple tiles or those buried beneath other tiles.

Plan ahead:

• Don't go for the first easy match you see – think several moves ahead. Look for pairs of tiles that will free up other tiles when removed.

Use the hint button carefully:

• You can use the hint button if you get stuck at any point in the game and can't locate an open match. The hints are unlimited, but be careful – they may not always recommend the best match.

Patience and practice are key:

• Sometimes, the best strategy is to wait and find a match that unblocks the most tiles. After all, this is a strategy game, not a test of speed. The more you play, the more you'll get an eye for patterns and matching.

• Don't be discouraged. With experience, you'll better recognize tile patterns and develop strategies to clear the board efficiently.

Remember that while mahjong is primarily a game of skill and strategy, luck is also involved due to the tile arrangement you receive at the start of the game. Keep practicing Thanksgiving Mahjong free online, and over time, you'll improve your game. Most importantly, have fun and enjoy your time making matches and clearing the board before time runs out.
