Jewel Quest is a ground breaking puzzle game!

Jewel Quest advances the popularity of match 3 games like Bejeweled 2 but takes it to the next level. Not only do you need to match shapes, you must also turn the board to gold which happens a bit at a time with each 3 or more in a row you complete. Also included is a great story that develops after each puzzle completion, leaving you wanting to find out what happens next.
The Jewel Quest Story:

You find the remains of an ancient Quest Journal, detailing an adventure for great wealth and lost artifacts. The Journal explains that at the end of the Quest lies the Temple of Fifth Sun, containing both gold and glory.

The path to the final Temple is shrouded in secrecy and twists you can't begin to imagine. To find each step of the path, you must solve puzzles that will turn ancient relics to gold and give them life and more importantly, allow them to share vital clues that will unlock the next crucial leg of your journey.

As you adventure through hidden jungles and up ancient mountains, the puzzles become more intriguing and thought provoking. New twists appear, attempting to thwart your progress to the Fifth Temple.

Jewel Quest will take you through hidden cities, skeleton lined mountain paths, and four temples on your way to the final goal. Each leg of the journey gets harder and harder and only a true puzzle adventurer, determined on achieving their quest, will make it through.

Did you know there is actually a difference between Mahjong (also spelled mahjongg, mah-jong, or mah-jongg) and Mahjong Solitaire? Mahjong is actually a 4 player game involving skill, strategy, calculation, and luck; while Mahjong solitaire is a tile matching, single player game.

‘Mah-jong’ can be translated from Chinese as ‘clattering sparrow’, ‘flax sparrow’ or possibly as ‘hemp bird’. The tiles when shuffled make a melodious noise reminiscent of the noise of numerous sparrows squabbling over scattered food crumbs.

Since many of us are addicted to this little game, I thought I’d put it up here in case we are ever away from our computer but have access to an Internet connection that way we can hustle on over here and get a fix! (Get to it already!)
How to Play

Download Mahjong full version pc game and Play it on Your PC!


The goal is to clear the board by removing all the tiles from the layout. Layouts can differ in pattern, size and height. There exist hundreds of different layouts. You must remove the tiles in pairs. A pair consists of two tiles which both are a) “free” and b) identical (or of the same type).

A tile is “free” when:
no other tile is lying above or is partially covering it
no other tile is lying to the left or to the right of it

Two tiles are identical if they look exactly the same (of course…). An exception to this are the Flowers and Seasons tiles. They are non-identical matching tiles and belong to the same type. All the Flowers tiles match one another and all the Season tiles match one another. You should study them before starting a game.

Each tile appears four times in a standard solitaire mahjongg game. Again an exception for the Flowers and Seasons tiles who appear only once each during a game.

It’s not as easy as it sounds; you can end up with having matched the “wrong” pairs and you may find yourself stuck, with unmatchable tiles blocking other key tiles so you can’t clear the layout. You must be careful before removing a pair, you should look for where the remaining pair is in the layout and plan ahead. If all four of an identical tile are free, remove them to ‘unclutter’ the field. It’s not only a game of pure luck, you have to play strategic.
Strategy

Remember that there are four of each tile. When removing a pair, an identical pair exists in the layout. Is it trapped by your removal of the first pair?
Concentrate your efforts on long rows and tall stacks.
Plan ahead as many moves as you can.
If all four of a tile are available, remove them all to unclutter the field.
Identify as many matching pairs as possible. Check for tiles that need to be unblocked.
Beware of triples (three matching free tiles); choose carefully which pair you remove. Leave the one that’s blocking the least important tiles.
Concentrate on removing pairs that will unblock the most tiles.

Free Mahjong Game offers the following options:

Dream - Very easy Mahjong
Towers - Easy tiles removal
Cloud - Normal Mahjongg play
Red Dragon - Hard to play solitaire
Ninja Game - The unbeatable Mah-jong

Challenge yourself and move to the top of the tower; win and feel the satisfaction of completion by finishing all mahjong solitaires included in this online version of the classic tiles game.

A "How to Play Mahjong" screen option will give you the basics on how to play the game.
