Try a more deliberate round

Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Use the example to check your reasoning.

The purpose of your moves

Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.

From the start of a round

  1. Play a tile matching either open chain end.
  2. Choose which end to use.
  3. Draw only when no tile fits.
  4. Pass only with no legal tile and an empty stock.

Keyboard and screen controls

Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.

One way to understand the rules

An open 4 accepts 4–2, leaving 2 open. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.

Avoid this misunderstanding

You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
