Mahjong Solitaire — Cross Layout

The Cross layout arranges tiles in a plus shape, with a vertical and horizontal bar intersecting in the center. The four arms provide easy access points, but the dense center is where the challenge lives.

Strategy Tips for Cross Layout

The tips of each arm have the most accessible tiles. Work inward from all four directions evenly to avoid creating dead ends in the center intersection.

How to Play

Click or tap two matching free tiles to remove them. A tile is free when nothing is on top of it and at least one side is open. Match all 144 tiles to win. Use Hint if you're stuck, Shuffle to rearrange remaining tiles, or Undo to take back a move.
