- Open stones
- A stone (or tile) is considered open if there is no tile directly on top of it & at least one of its left or right sides is open.
- Only open tiles can be matched.
- Tiles which are open have a picture on them.
- Tiles which are not open show up as blue with no picture on them.
- Selected tiles have a yellow outline while they are selected.
- When no matches remain the tiles are automatically shuffled.
- The automated shuffling does not cost you points.
- Conversely, this means that if the tiles have not shuffled you know there is at least 1 open match remaining.
- If you chose the wrong tile then selecting any other non-matching tile will deselect the prior tile.
- Generally it is best to go for the widest rows and tallest columns first to open up the playing field, but the unlimited free shuffles makes that less important in this game.
- Tiles fall if you remove a tile directly beneath them. This can have some tiles fall from being in an open position to being stuck between other tiles & no longer being open.
- Levels
- This game has 21 levels which are unlocked sequentially.
- You can go back to previously beat levels to replay them and try to improve your score on them.
- You typically score more points in later levels since they have many more tiles on them.
- Levels are not timed, but each stage has a unique board layout.
- Scoring
- Each tile match you make is worth points.
- Making consecutive moves quickly makes the moves worth more points, whereas playing slowly makes the matches worth fewer points.
- Your game score is cumulative across levels.
- Target Audience
- The game is suited for players who like Mahjong Solitaire tile matching games.
- Featuring interesting historical drawings, lacking a time limit, and only showing the images on open tiles makes this game easy and enjoyable for children new to the genre.
- The game has no adult themed content.
