Tray mode: collect pairs in a 4-slot tray
Tap a free tile and it flies into the wooden tray at the top. Two of the same tile clear automatically, even if they sat far apart on the board. Collect again within 9 seconds to keep a combo going.
Cozy mahjong solitaire, fair underneath
Yila Mahjong is a cozy mahjong-solitaire game that plays in your web browser. Every board can be cleared, and a stuck board gets a free rescue instead of a game over.
No account and no sign-in. The web build shows no ads of any kind.
What does fair underneath mean?
It means four rules the game keeps on every board, built into its code rather than left to luck.
Every board can be cleared
Each board is dealt solvable by construction: the game builds it backwards from a full clear, then a separate solver re-checks it before it is used.
A stuck board is rescued for free
If tiles are left and no move is possible, the game rewinds past positions no shuffle could save, then reshuffles. A rescue is never tied to an ad.
A full tray is never a game over
In tray mode, if the tray fills with 4 tiles that do not match, you get a free shuffle and carry on.
Your score never resets
Your lifetime score is banked when you win and never resets. Badges are permanent and never taken away.
Checked, not just claimed. On 2026-10-08 the game's own self-test cleared these boards with deliberately imperfect moves and confirmed every stuck state was rescued.

What are the two ways to play?
Tray mode is on by default, and classic tap-two is one switch away in Settings. Both modes share the same tile rules.
Classic mode: tap two matching tiles
Tap two matching free tiles to clear them. The daily challenge always plays this way, because the leaderboard checks runs by replaying classic moves.
Does it play sideways?
Yes. A level started on a sideways screen spreads the same stack sideways so tiles stay big, and Hint, Shuffle and Undo move to a rail on the right. The deal is made on that shape, so it can still be cleared.
How to play both modes
What does the promise look like in numbers?
The ad and coin rules are hard numbers in the game's config files, and the code checks them before any ad slot.
