PLAYER GUIDE

How to play Shisen-Sho

This Mahjong Connect puzzle asks you to find both a matching pair and a legal route between its tiles. Removing a pair opens space for later connections.

  1. Choose Play and examine the tile symbols before selecting a pair.
  2. Click one tile, then a tile with the same symbol. The connecting route must be unobstructed and use no more than two right-angle turns.
  3. Work from open edges and the gaps left by removed pairs to expose more routes.
  4. Watch the timer and use the game's pause or Help controls when you need to review the rules.

A few useful tips

  • Two similar-looking number tiles may have different symbols; compare them carefully.
  • A pair near an edge can open a route around the outside of the layout.

If something isn’t working

A highlight confirms selection, not a valid match. If tiles remain, check both their symbols and the path between them. This is a tile-connection game rather than four-player mahjong.

Before you play Shisen-Sho

A timed tile-connection puzzle. Look for matching symbols and an unobstructed route; a highlighted tile alone does not establish a legal pair.

Open this browser game without a separate app installation. Your connection still loads the game files.

What is a legal Shisen-Sho connection?

The two tiles must match, and their connecting path must be clear with no more than two right-angle turns. Gaps and open outer edges can create useful routes.

Why did my matching-looking tiles stay on the board?

Check that the symbols are actually identical, then trace the route between them. Similar number tiles can differ, and intervening tiles can block a connection.

Is Shisen-Sho the four-player mahjong game?

No. This is a single-player Mahjong Connect puzzle about clearing pairs under a timer. It does not use the rules or matchmaking of four-player mahjong.
