Play with real tiles
Is it possible to
play a 'solitaire mahjongg' game with real mahjongg tiles?
"Shanghai certainly is playable with real tiles -- and, IMO, Shanghai is
definitely the best solitaire game for Mah-Jongg tiles -- but we have made many
different ways to play Shanghai. However, I don't think you will enjoy playing
Shanghai with real tiles as much as you will enjoy playing the computer version. When you play with real tiles, you have to laboriously build the
layout (trying all the while not to allow yourself to arrange the tiles in either an unwinnable or winnable fashion), then after you have removed several
pairs and find yourself stuck, there is no computer to tell you where there's a
move -- and there is no computer to tell you where you took the tiles from so
you can back up to the point where you got stuck. Shanghai does all that, and
more.

Shanghai auto solver
| Most solitaire
mahjongg computer implementations can generate puzzles that are
guaranteed to be solvable.
Even so, it is impossible to come up with an
algorithm that could always solve them (according to Jarno
Elonen). This is correct for the case where you are not
allowed to peek below the tiles |
|
If, however, you are allowed to peek under the
tiles before taking them (complete-information variant of the
game), it is obviously possible to write a solver. Pedro
Gimeno Fortea have made an excellent article and a C
program about an auto-solver for mahjongg solitaire (shanghai auto
solver).
The solver program covers the solution of
boards from Kyodai, XMahjongg, Nels Andersons game and KDE.
