Aim for this result
Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
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.
Using the playing area
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Check any mode label before starting.
One way to understand the rules
An open 4 accepts 4–2, leaving 2 open. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Verify the rule before continuing.
Avoid this misunderstanding
You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
