How ranking works

Every board on Mahjong.now is generated solvable, so the leaderboard measures skill, not luck. Two things decide your rank:

  • Time is the primary sort - the faster you clear, the higher you place.
  • Moves are shown as a tie-breaker and a quality signal: fewer moves means cleaner play with less shuffling and back-tracking.

Play as a guest to post a time, or sign in with Google to keep your streak and best times synced across devices. Every submission is sanity-checked, so impossible times never make the board.

What is a good Mahjong Solitaire time?

Use this ladder as a rough target for a full 144-tile layout like the Turtle:

LearningClearing the layout at all is the win - most first clears run well over 10 minutes.
Comfortable6 to 10 minutes, matching steadily with a clear plan.
FastUnder 5 minutes - you read blocking chains and rarely pause.
ExpertUnder 3 minutes on an open layout, matching almost without hesitation.

Five ways to climb the board

  1. Uncover before you clear. Prioritize matches that free buried tiles over easy edge pairs that unlock nothing.
  2. Work the board evenly. Don't strip one side bare - keep free tiles available everywhere so you never stall.
  3. Remove open foursomes on sight. When all four copies of a tile are free, take both pairs immediately.
  4. Save Flowers and Seasons. They match within their groups, so keep them as flexible escapes for late jams.
  5. Learn one layout deeply. Records come from knowing a board cold - pick a favorite and repeat it.

The full rules and strategy guide explains the free-tile rule in detail, the glossary defines every term, and the daily challenge is a great low-pressure way to practice against a shared board.

Prefer a live opponent?

The leaderboard is a race against the clock; multiplayer is a race against a person. You both get the identical layout and the first to clear it wins - the fastest way to sharpen up under real pressure.
