How to play
Jingle Mahjong is a Christmas tile-matching puzzle. Your goal is to clear all tiles from the board by matching identical pairs. A tile is free when it is not covered and has at least one open side. Tap or click two identical free tiles to match and remove them. Clear every tile to win the level. The game takes you through two worlds: snowy Santaland and sugary Bubbleland, which is full of candies and sweet bubbles. The tiles are festive, including gifts, candy canes, ornaments and gingerbread. The developer says you can beat every level and collect all the items.
Controls explained
Use tap or click to select two identical free tiles. A tile counts as free only when nothing covers it and at least one side is open, so a covered tile cannot be matched even if its twin is visible elsewhere on the board. If you get stuck, use Hint, Shuffle and Undo. Hint shows a possible match, Shuffle rearranges the remaining tiles, and Undo takes back your last move. The controls are simple to pick up.
Tips
- Look for pairs along the outer edges first, because those tiles usually have an open side.
- Before matching, check whether removing a pair will free a covered tile underneath.
- Save Shuffle for when no visible pair is free, rather than using it early.
- Use Undo after a match that leaves the board harder to read.
- In Bubbleland, scan for candy tiles that sit on top of others so you can open the stack.
