Understand the aim
Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Follow these playing steps
- Play a tile matching either open chain end.
- Choose which end to use.
- Draw only when no tile fits.
- Pass only with no legal tile and an empty stock.

An example before you play

An important reminder
You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
