Windows 7 Mahjong Titans Game Rules
Microsoft Mahjong Tiles Free Games
After we have introduced the Mahjong Titans board, the tiles used in this Windows 7 game and the layout, we can continue to talk and learn about the Microsoft game Windows Mahjong Titans rules.
You will remember the aim of the game is to remove all Mahjong tiles from the game board.In order to move tiles, gamers should pick Mahjong tiles in pairs.Each tile pair must exactly be a match of each tile in the pair.Of course there are exceptions of this rule. You can match any flower with another flower tile.You can also match a seasons tile with another seasons tile. There are the two exceptions of the matching tile Mahjong Titans rules in Windows 7 Mahjong Titans game.
Of course besides pairing tiles rule, each tile you attempt to select must be free to move.What is a free tile in Windows Mahjong Titans game? If you can move a tile without effecting other tiles then this means the selected tile is free.For example, you can not move a tile which is under another Mahjong tile in the tile pile.
In short, gamers can only move the Mahjong tiles on the top of the tiles pile or on the left or right sides of the pile.
The Mahjong tiles which are under other tiles or stuck between other piles can not be played so can not be a pair with a free tile.
In order to play with a stuck tile, gamer has to free tile by removing tiles around the stuck tile by making them pair with others.
If you click on a Mahjong Titans tile which is not free, you will be warned with one of the below 'Tile Blocked' messages.
Tile Blocked : You can't select that tile until its left or right side is free of the other tiles.
Tile Blocked : You can't select that tile until you clear the tile on top of it.

For maximazing Mahjong Titans score you earn, you can try to gather bonus points as well.For example, if you pair two identical Mahjong tiles with same pattern and number or letter in the same row, you get extra bonus.
As an additional point, I want to answer the common question among Mahjong game players 'Are all games in Mahjong Titans solvable ?' or 'Do all Mahjong games have a solution ?'.
My answer to this question is absolutely NO. I do not believe every game has a solution. How better you play or how good you are at playing Mahjong games, when two tile pairs reside on top of other, there is no way to solve this tiles distribution.
Actually, to force the game for a solution, at tile distribution time at the beginning of the game, the programmer must have checked each tile not to be stucked by other and the opposite to be true.
I did not read or hear from Microsoft or Oberon Games that the opposite is true. So hope your game has a solution, and be wise to find that solution on the Mahjong board.
