Mahjong Connect
Mahjong Connect, also known as Onet, is the link-matching puzzle built from mahjong tiles. Clear the whole board by joining pairs of identical tiles with a path that bends no more than twice. Relaxed mode has no clock if you would rather take your time.

How to play
- Tap or click two tiles showing the same face.
- The pair clears if they can be joined by a path of empty space that turns at most twice. The path may travel around the outside edge of the board.
- Clear every tile to win. Consecutive matches build a streak bonus.
- If no pair is playable, the board reshuffles automatically so you never get stuck.
Game features
- Classic Onet-style link matching with authentic mahjong tile faces.
- Three board sizes from compact to full-grid challenges.
- Relaxed mode with no timer plus timed boards for streak scoring.
- Automatic reshuffle when no pair is playable — boards never dead-end.
- Hint system and streak bonus for longer sessions.
Supported devices
Mahjong Connect runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet and phone with no install. Touch taps on mobile and click-to-match on desktop both work on the same board. Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Edge on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS are supported; a mid-size phone screen fits the default board comfortably in portrait.
Strategy tips
- Work the edges first. Outside tiles have the most routes available and open up the middle as they clear.
- Two identical tiles sitting next to each other are always playable — but clearing them may be the only way to open a path elsewhere, so look before taking the free match.
- The hint button costs a few points. On the timed boards that trade is almost always worth it.
Frequently asked questions
How is this different from mahjong solitaire?
Solitaire stacks tiles in layers and you match tiles that are free on one side. Connect lays them flat and asks you to join pairs with a path. Different puzzle, same tiles.
What counts as a turn in the path?
Every change of direction. A straight line has no turns, an L shape has one, and a Z or U shape has two. Three or more is not allowed.
